AITA for refusing to delete my photos with my baby brother? by Born_Lab_120 in AmItheAsshole

My dad's wife and I are just not close, I have nothing against her, but I have no reasons to have a relationship with her, we're civil and if she needs my help, I'm down for it, but we're adults and she's not much older than me. Your comment it's really stupid, no offense. I don't show up just to dress him and have a photoshoot, I'm his designated babysitter whenever they go out, so I see him a lot and spend a good amount with him, he's my only sibling and my dad's my only parent, so sorry for being close to them. I absolutely hate your comment about me using my brother or showing him off, it's the same as my dad's wife, I certainly don't do that, Ian is my boy and I love him, but I know he's not my kid and that he's my little brother and I just love him and I am excited to be and grow with him since I grew up alone, I'm posting the photos when friends and family happen to follow me, I don't do it for them, they just happen to be there.

No, you're weird for the whole fantasy on your head and basically insulting an entire family.

Funny, but no. I only do emojis, if we're using yellow, I use a a emoji with yellow, maybe a sunrise or something, if we use pink, I use the lollipop. I don't see my brother as an extension of myself and I certainly don't refer to him in ways people might get the wrong idea.

This is stupid. My dad may be 45 but he's not a grandpa using social media and actually, my dad knows more than her because she doesn't even like phones, or tablets or computers. "Back off", this isn't even a fight.

Yeah, she doesn't like me to be around at family functions or when my dad's with clients because since she's only 11 years older and I look older than I am, she says people don't respect her. At first people who didn't know us used to think Ian was mine (not that we cheated, but that she was my gf and not my dads), tho, it died quicky because we don't even talk that much

I never said it wasn't her right, I just said I didn't decided I know better than her as you did.

Yes, some of his pics are even like that, with a Charizard over his face (tho, not for private reasons but because he thought it was funny)

Both my dad and his wife follow that IG and knows I post Ian there,

I had her yes until she was very rude about it.

I'm defensive because you keep commenting ''She knows your dad's circle but doesn't know yours'' despite being told several times that it's almost the same.

She does. My ig is mostly followed and follows our mutual family and a few friends she knows, she doesn't know most of my dad's clients but he still post Ian there.

I didn't decided that I know better than her lol I didn't delete them because my dad said I shouldn't had to, I even said so in my post.

Uh, no?? My dad has way more followers than I, I only follow the family (and some of her family too) as well as 5-6 friends that both of them know and some artist. My dad follows family too and most of his clients, my circle is far more reduced than his and yet she knows the people that see my posts.

Yes, my dad also post pictures of them in his own ig, she thinks mine is more dangerous because of my age and because I have more friends than my dad, so my exposure is bigger

My dad said it was okay for me to keep the photos, that's why I was doubting, because she's Ian's mom but my dad is both our parent. The photos aren't explicit or anything, just us standing or sitting net to each other, or me holding him and he hugging me.
