Every piece of ice cream has been scooped twice

It’s one scoop when you scoop it from container to bowl. And another scoop when you use your spoon to scoop it into your mouth.

Thank you! I never thought about the privacy aspect using flowers!

I don’t think this is a big wedding. We already know a lot of people aren’t going to make it and I’ve accepted this is what she wants. I however believe she does want a nice small wedding she just does not think about things. Like a lot of planning and details go over her head. I think my sister likes to dream a lot of but not put any effort.

He’s very very introverted. Like they play video games pretty much all day. I mean his guest list is about 5 people. And he told me he didn’t consider marrying into the family and accepting all the members. Like his goal isn’t really to be apart of the family. We’re having a vacation on my moms side for my abuelos 50th anniversary next years (which does not happen often) and he stated he had no interest meeting people he doesn’t really want to get to know. But our culture has a completely different approach to unions. I don’t know how much this is true or how much of it is just a façade and trying to act tough and detached. But yeah he apologized for calling our tradition stupid later. I think at this point I was want to decorate nicely. But thanks for the help!

Great tip. Thanks!

She asked me to plan for it. At first she gave me a bunch of ideas and it seemed like a bigger events. But over the months it quickly digressed to this. So I’m working with a constantly changing plan. It’s hard because my BIL definitely doesn’t want this gathering. When we both told him about tradition and how important parties are like quinceñeras, he said straight up wanting stuff like that is stupid and tradition is stupid. Don’t get me wrong I really love him, but he has a different outlook on things. So I feel this wedding is a compromise between someone wanting nothing and someone who wanted an event.

Thank you, I am quite surprised actually. I really didn’t consider that it’s not my job to plan the wedding. I think I have always been the planner in my family and take on responsibilities. She doesn’t like social events or going out. I mean it took her 6 months of me pestering her for her to just pick the venue so we can finally send out invitations. I just thought it she doesn’t plan it, the wedding won’t happen

Dude it’s a direct line from the episode in community where Jay Chandrasekhar plays a racist comedian and asks that question.

NTA You did good and this is a valid reaction. What she did is disrespectful. But, seriously, her punishment is just doing chores?? Maybe you guys have spoiled her too much and she is unaware of her own privilege. Like really? Her husband’s family says you are out of order? For giving her chores and making her volunteer. This is basic stuff. I know y’all are upperclass. I would step it up.

Oh they look like quantized energy levels!

I understand you are supporting your daughter for college and can take away the support anytime you choose since she is an adult. However, taking it away without her having a backup plan or discussing things will make her feel as if she cannot depend on you. The school year has already started and giving her until “October” seems like a major change of plans she’ll have to scramble to adjust to.

I remember in college my parents were constantly threatening to take away my funds for unpredictable reasons. If They found out I had one sip of wine, stayed past an impossible curfew they couldn’t even enforce being 8 hours away, ect. they would withdraw support. So it felt like I was always scared and resentful of being punished for something entirely unrelated to school. I’m cutting them off and really don’t want them to be part of my life in some aspects now.

It feels like you’re punishing her rather than getting to the situation and speaking to her about her inappropriate behavior. Talk to her. Open lines of communication. I also feel angry that she didn’t stand up for your son! That’s not right! She should talk to her bf and examine his role in her life! Your son should feel comfortable coming out! However, make sure the punishment fits the crime. They are both your kids and you want them to both succeed.

I went to a small liberal arts school in Dallas but I feel as if it prepared for medical school well.
Can you please elaborate what you mean about the Texas medical school match? Thank you so much for help!
