Mom Faces Backlash For Letting Oldest Daughter Take Care Of Youngest Daughter's Dog When She Moves Out

On the r/AmItheA**hole subreddit, a mom (OP) posted a story about how she was criticized for allowing her oldest daughter to take care of the family dog when she moved out.
In the post, she shared that her family currently lives in a pricey city. She has three daughters—Phoebe, Maddie, and Lily. Her husband spoils the youngest, Lily, a lot. He even bought a dog for her, despite the opposition of the OP and their eldest daughter, Phoebe.
The dog then became a big deal as it created a tug-of-war in the family.
Through time, Lily's interest in the dog has faded, and the oldest daughter has had to step in to care for him. And when the oldest graduated and moved out, the OP agreed to let her take the dog, which caused a heated argument in the family.
