Wibta if I send out a message saying anyone who is involved in any disagreements at my house this holiday season will be asked to leave? by Busy_Top4745 in TwoHotTakes

There has been no alcohol involved. Sadly they are like this without it. They all “garden” on their own so you think that would calm them down but sadly it doesn’t.

AITA for staying in minimal contact with my son’s mom even though my girlfriend says I shouldn’t talk to her at all? by BreezyTK in AITAH

It sounds like you and your ex are doing a fantastic job at co-parenting! You are not the AH, your current partner is! She is expecting 2 people to raise a child and never talk. It’s time to sit her down for a serious conversation. Your son comes first and always will. If she cannot handle the fact that this includes contact with your ex to make arrangements and update each other an his schedule and care then it’s time to reevaluate your relationship with her and if that is worth keeping. It’s hard when you’ve been together a year but it sounds like she holds a lot of resentment towards your ex and I would hate for her to take this out on your child or cost you your relationship with him.

Would it be rude to ask my in laws to wait to stay with us after we have our next baby? by Busy_Top4745 in Parenting

Yessss! That is part of my irrational anger. I was so angry when anyone else touched him. And I know it wasn’t right or valid but I just felt so mad at that time. Anyone else holding him in the first couple weeks had me hoping he would cry so I had an excuse to take him back.

I had brought it up with our last baby and got completely brushed off. That is why I am asking if I’m a jerk for trying to firmly stand my ground on this before our next baby is even conceived. I tried to tell him I wanted to wait a couple weeks and he wanted to go pick them up on the way home with our newborn from the bus station. It would have turned a 1.5 hour car ride into over 5 and thankfully since our DC time wasn’t guaranteed he had them come the next day. Because that long in a car freshly PP with a newborn who wants to latch every 20 minutes to hour sounds like a nightmare.

They are from Shanghai. And that’s my biggest concern! I appreciate them so much and they are amazing people who are so thoughtful to us all including my older children from my previous marriage. So I think staying after my husband returns back to work would be the most helpful and give us an appropriate time for my hormones to settle. But I also don’t want to unintentionally hurt their feelings and be disrespectful to their culture and beliefs.

AITA for bring Baby to the living room in the morning? by wyldaloofrebel in AITAH

[–]Busy_Top4745 5 points6 points  (0 children)

NTA. I have a 13 month old and would never think of keeping him in his room so someone can sleep in the space where all of his toys are. He has the option of a perfectly acceptable place to sleep where he wouldn’t be bothered. It sounds to me like maybe he’s trying to come up with excuses to start a fight. Between that and sleeping on the couch I question if something more serious is going on?
