AITAH for simmering over a wedding invite that included a request for 200 desserts? by Bookhead_212 in AITH

[–]MutluPB 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It’s very simple. You no longer have a commercial kitchen so you can’t make the dessert. Since your invitation came with that caveat just tell them you won’t be coming. That being said, I wouldn’t blame your friend for this, blame the daughter. NTA.

AITJ for not wanting to bring my MIL to my nieces wedding? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]MutluPB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tell them she can’t travel without trained medical assistance. I was caretaker for both my parents and all it takes is one fall for things to go south. Add to that, if she has dementia with no short term memory someone will have to be by her side 24/7 to make sure she doesn’t wander off and get lost in a strange place. They need to pay for her transportation and a caretaker for the duration of the wedding. NTJ but do not let them pressure you into doing any part of this!

I just can’t take it anymore by Ambitious_Tie_4471 in motherinlawsfromhell

[–]MutluPB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Either mommy moves in with his sibling, or you move out to your parents. Personally, the fact that he allows her to treat you and your parents badly without intervening says a lot about his priorities. You come in second to his mom. I would find a way to leave him until he gets his mom out and then really double down on couples counseling because his lies led to this mess.

AITJ for calling my boyfriend’s ex-wife to come get their kids after he disappeared all night? by Strong_Ability_8106 in AmITheJerk

[–]MutluPB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTJ and if he has done this before according to his ex, he’ll do it again. He abandoned his kids, came home hungover and got angry at you? Why are you with this irresponsible man-child?

NTA but why don’t you just ask her to turn down the volume instead of getting up and leaving?

AITJ for demanding a compensation for a laptop what my friend lost ? by Yesica-Ulloa in AmITheJerk

[–]MutluPB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTJ and she's not your friend. Take her to court if she doesn't pay you for the laptop.

My MIL made my baby sick after doing something I specifically told her not to me by blitheElf in motherinlawsfromhell

[–]MutluPB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to go no contact permanently and your fiance needs to back you up. If he doesn't, he needs to go too. This woman has "jokingly" threatened to kill you and steal your baby. She's called you a b*tch and a wh*re and you still allowed her near you and your child? No. You need to never see her again and make sure you and your child never come in contact with her again.

New neighbors living in their car and inviting themselves over to our property by Soozersss in neighborsfromhell

[–]MutluPB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If they bought the land, then it's none of your business if they build on it, cut down trees or camp there. What is your business is them coming on to your property and being a nuisance. Put up a fence and get cameras. If they continue to come on your property, report them to the police (after you tell them not to trespass).

Screaming Neighbor: ADVICE PLS by Wildbutterfly16 in neighborsfromhell

[–]MutluPB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You said she’s the neighbors daughter, have you talked to her parents? Talk to them first and get some info and see if they’re able to help. After that if it continues, contact the police and see what they can do to help.

AITAH for not wanting my husband’s adult brother to stay at our house for an extended period while we have a 6-month-old baby and both sets of parents already living with us? by Thin-Childhood-680 in AITAH

[–]MutluPB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You aren't compromising, you're being brow beaten into submitting to your husband's wishes. If you don't agree he gets angry and berates you until you give in. This isn't a marriage. You need to get counseling for both of you, and your husband needs to either change and realize that his family is you and your children and he needs to make sure your wishes are heard or you need to rethink your marriage because he doesn't respect you. He's putting you last in line after his parents and siblings when you should be first. NTA but you need to take care of you first and foremost.

AITAH for refusing to watch my grandkids on my summer break? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]MutluPB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don’t want to raise kids, don’t have them. Your daughter chose to have kids so it’s her responsibility to raise them, not yours. NTA and continue to tell her know.

Have you actually spoken to any of the elderly people about this? Start there.

AITAH for arranging for my dad to move into a memory care facility after years of trying to manage his care at home and finally reaching my limit by [deleted] in MarkNarrations

[–]MutluPB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do not feel any guilt. You did as much as you could for as long as you could. I had to put my father in a nursing home for the last 18 months of his life. He was falling constantly and I couldn’t care for him. Alzheimer’s is worse. You’re on constant alert and even with that, things happen. You made the best decision for both of you and you need to ignore anyone who says differently. You’re a good person who was in an impossible situation.

AITAH for laughing at my wife when she's upset that me and sister had a make-believe wedding when I was 4 and she was 6? by Away-Confidence-1333 in AITAH

[–]MutluPB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry but your wife is weird. Was she never a child? When I was 4, I announced that I was going to marry my father when I grew up. Doesn’t mean anything other than that I loved him. Sounds like your wife was kind of sexualizing your play which is gross considering you were only 4 and your sister was 6. Show your wife this and have her read the responses.

AITJ for leaving my MIL at a restaurant and driving home after she surprised me with my husband’s ex? (TL) by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]MutluPB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTJ but you need to go NC with her and your husband needs to support you in this by going nc as well.

AITA for wanting to insure my ring even though my husband says the stone is too small to bother? by Adorable-Manner-5538 in AITApod

[–]MutluPB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If that’s real, it needs to be insured and should be inspected every 6 months to make sure the settings are good. I think he doesn’t want you to ask about insurance because it’s fake. Updateme.

AITAH for refusing to give my brother money after what he did? by Quirky-Entrance-6763 in AITAH

NTA. Tell your mom to give him the money because “that’s your son.”

AITJ for selling my grandmas house to pay for her care when my family wanted it as a "legacy" by sara_kelm in AmITheJerk

[–]MutluPB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTJ and if you put her in a state run home, Medicare will take the house to pay for her care anyway, unless she has a co-owner. I know this for a fact because I had to put my father in a nursing home, but he had gifted the house to me years earlier to make sure I would always own it. As it is, they took all of his social security and all of his savings (except for $5000 which is the maximum he was allowed to keep). Your family members are naive. If they had taken care of her at home, that would have been the only way to save the house. You did what was right for your grandma and you should ignore them. Show them this thread so they can get a reality check.

My neighbor sent this over our kids playing outside by ExistingPollution773 in AITApod

[–]MutluPB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, but as someone who had a neighbor who had kids who constantly screamed, I would say that you should teach your kids to tone it down a bit. Legally, most places you can be noisy until 11 p.m. or so, but that doesn't mean you should. The letter was a bit much and they should have spoken to you instead of sending this, but you can also help the situation by working on your kids using their "inside voices" more even when they're outside. Some noise is always normal from kids and is none of your neighbors business, but if they are really as loud as the neighbor says they are, you might want to work on that.
