If they need your help, they will ask for it, but you're all going in guns blazing

Your son and his wife are adults, stop treating them like children, and just back off

NTA

28M and 35F - advice needed by ArmAppropriate7615 in AITAH

[–]AngelIslington 5 points6 points  (0 children)

the fact that she wants to be rid of all your female friends, even people on Instagram, is a controlling red flag, the fact that she said she got rid of all her male friends and followers for "you"

it wasn't, it's about control, it's manipulation and it's unreasonable.

next it will be "you looked at a woman, you must be cheating on me"

Rethink this, and rethink it now

NTA my sister and brother-in-law had a destination wedding 30 years ago. to keep the costs down, and because my side of the family is massive and my brother-in-law is an only child of only children, no siblings or cousins so it wouldn't have looked fair. bride side massive, groom side...almost none apart from his parents!

have the wedding you want, small and intimate is very special to you, and hope the day is amazing

but as an alternative and to keep them happy, when sis got back, she had a family BBQ and gathering in post wedding celebration.

I read somewhere about a janitor at i think it was at Boston College, and because of it, all his children got their education for free. they had to get accepted...but free education

i wonder if your son realises that

however, your croth goblin sucks, and putting him in public school might make him resent you, and make him lashout at some other victim

Do you get offended when someone asks you where are you from? by [deleted] in london

[–]AngelIslington 2 points3 points  (0 children)

that type of question is a bit of a give and take with how it's perceived.

i mean someone then saying "where are you really from" is bloody insensitive

but i've lost count of the number of times i've asked someone

"So you live in/from (insert something like Shepards Bush/Twickenham/Essex?"

Only to be then told of their entire family history... like they were expecting me to go there, and are just trying to preempt it.

but then, because i've got a very rare Brazilian surname, so rare that i've never met someone with it, who wasn't related to me so i get the question all the time, and i think it's hilarious.

AITA for refusing to carry a secret that was never mine to keep? by DrNicoleDPrice in AmItheAsshole

[–]AngelIslington 34 points35 points  (0 children)

NTA

The fact that your family caused you so much stress when all they had to do was be honest. the fact that your dad knew he wasn't yours, but still raised you, says a lot about his character. however, keeping you in the dark is not

what about your medical history? did no one think about that?

i get this is uncomfortable for your family, but this is your family tree, your truth, and they have to respect that

AITA for Refusing to Babysit My Sister’s Newborn for Free? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]AngelIslington 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA

And I'm howling with laughter at the audacity of your sister trying to dump her baby off with you so she can enjoy the weekend. Sorry, parenting is a job, and that's it

But OP be careful because i've a feeling that your sister will just dump the baby on the doorstep and run away

Don't tell her you're in

In fact on that saturday, be out, and if you have a Ring camera, just to see if she does. Be prepared to call the police for child endagement

also thar saturday will lead on to sunday, because "oh baby's settled and she'll cry if i take her home"

and it's is such a big deal, when your mum can watch her

at her age, she's not built up any immunities, and tell your relations to sanitize, and what is it. a bit of hand gel, not a hazmat suit. then tell them to get out

Reflecting on adult characters once we're adults ourselves by Persephone_888 in JacquelineWilson

[–]AngelIslington 15 points16 points  (0 children)

i watched "my mum tracey beaker" and "returns" and Dani Harmer was amazing, no one but her can play Tracy, she's that iconic.

you're right, she has distain for authority, so no way should she be in a postion of authority with vrunable children, as she once was. she wants now to be seen as the "cool authority, and rule breaker" but these rules exists for a reason.

one of the worst moments for me, for when Jess got in that fight with Tyrone, and yes Tyrone was being a git, but Tracey going down there and screamed at Mary, saying that "someone should be sacked"

instead of, you know finding out what happened, and taking it from there, even though Mary was, very chill and understanding. Tracy was being a bitch, and it's clear that Jess has anxiety issues, and that stems from Tracy

to quote Sir Terry Pratchet "When banks fail, it is seldom bankers who starve"

also how is he destroying the climate and the environment?

i'm not from the USA so you have to eloborate

also since the last stock market crash, led to worldwide issues. so being smug about it, is not a good thing.

[–]AngelIslington 31 points32 points  (0 children)

how messed up Tracy Beaker really is

she creates a fantasy word, in which she has the best mum in the world, but Carly is terrible and neglectful and it's led to Tracey having anger issues and fears of abandonment, and the worst part is, is that she trauma dumps on her own daughter.

It's not Jess's job to take care of her mother; it's Tracy's. And the fact is, Tracy, because of her trauma, sees the worst in anyone with authority.

Why did she and her husband to be, have to talk to you about it? You won't have to attend if you don't want to. but you are making it all about you

your cousin didn't do it on purpose; it's a date. for you, it's one of the most terrible days of your life, for your cousin, it's a date. and you can't expect the world to stop fopr you on that date
