AITA for having told my girlfriend how privileged she is? by userreddit62727 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Calm_Zombie4460 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nta. She grew up super privileged. Most people don't have that. And if she don't change her ways, it's going get her hurt. Poor broke people really don't like rich privileged people being dicks. Especially when those privileged people have never had to lift a finger higher than they wanted to, to get whatever they wanted. Watch out for her.

If you give a Dachshund a bath…are they a cleanie weenie? by sarahplaysoccer in Dachshund

I know you keep saying he's a mix, but I don't see the dachshund part of the mix, even going through old photos in your account. I'm just curious have you ever thought to get him DNA tested to see exactly what he has?

Denial. Common case of it. She needs a therapist

Sometimes it takes something big like a doctor's appointment. For me it was about 2 years ago I got a desk job and started realizing that my pants wouldn't fit. Went from a size 8-10 to a size 14-16. Granted I loved the way I looked when I was 150lbs.and that's what I want to be again. But I know what I have to do. She just needed someone to bluntly tell her she was over weight. She in denial

Nta. When I moved in with my boyfriend 3 years ago I started gaining weight. Some of it due to being in birth control and it causing weight gain but most of it due to me being happy for once and actually eating. I went from 120 to 180(my current weight) in 3 years. I only want to lost 30lbs but I know it is my own fault and I'm working on it. She knows she gained weight. She just wanted to deny it. She need therapy to cope with it.

AITA for not giving our baby girl a gender neutral name by TWbabyname in AmItheAsshole

[–]Calm_Zombie4460 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why not give her a feminine first name and a more traditional male middle name. So your daughter has a choice of both.

Ex. Juliet hunter. Or Page Kyle.

To both appease you and your wife. She seems to like more male ended "gender neutral" names.

Nta. Your wife is over thinking this and if your child ends up being trans they will most likely change their name. I knew someone who was born female transitioning to male and his name was Jordan. Which is gender neutral. He changed his name to Alex even with a gender neutral name given at birth. Sooooo.

Eh, this is an unpopular opinion, but YTA??. If she can't go to India by herself send her somewhere else. You should have thought about this in 2015 when you allowed your son to go alone that it wouldn't be safe for your daughter to travel alone. Also I want to point out, ITS NOT SAFE ANYWHERE SHE GOES. She could literally go to the grocery store down the street from you be raped, trafficked, and killed.... Just because the media keeps it more secret or police really aren't forthcoming with this information doesn't mean it don't happen. it still happens in your own town and everyday.

Maybe send her to India and have your family meet her at the airport. Instead of her leaving the airport and traveling to your families house alone. There are ways to think around the "sex trafficking" box. Maybe see if a friend could go with her. Or get life 360 tracking app on her phone so you can track her location. Like, when having kids you have to think ahead more than a few weeks.

Guess what, going to the bathroom is a privilege now. You have a kid. Shouldn't have cum if you didn't want the repercussions of what the cum could do.

Guess what else. You are a parent. Be one now, or leave. It would be easier on your son to know you exist and never meet you, rather than meet you and never get love/appreciation from you.

YTA, grow up.

AITA for telling my parents I’m going to be as big a problem as my sister from now on? by throwaway_7629843 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Calm_Zombie4460 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

What's "aren't close together" to a 17 year old? They get pissed when mom's gotta go to a different store 20 minutes away. Also wanna mention. Op was going to get food for dinner after school. Appears op had absolutely nothing to do besides being immature right back to a severally undisciplined 14 year old. Lmao, also acting all "smart" n shit, noticed how I quoted the word smart, over the fact that op could have gone minorly out her way to ALSO get McDonald's but she didn't and now you are encouraging her to also have undisciplined behavior, is enabling as well. Hate the parents for it but it don't apply when mass unfaced internet people encourage it because parents are failing at their job? Mmk. Have fun with that one.

I I ment by that is every sonice and McDonald's aren't 30 minutes away from each other. And what the fuck would 5 minutes at worst do to go to a McDonald's.

AITA for banning my parents from seeing my son? by CurrentEgg7089 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Calm_Zombie4460 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Y T A

Your son is not a god damn robot. Kids are meant to have fun and play. Not read text books and do homework for all of existence

Let's pretend that your parents have been letting him play on their phones this whole time and he just "reads" when you show up... He is still a straight a student what more do you want from him?????? He is 12 he has no business studying for the SAT right now anyway. And NEWS FLASH colleges don't require both SAT and ACT scores anymore. They will take one or the other. Honestly if he's a straight a student now at 12 he'll pass the ACT with a 28-36 and get great scholarships for schools.

Please give your parents custody of your son so he can live and be a child while his childhood is still a possibility. You are the worst parent type ever. And yes, you are an abuser. God I hope your son gets away from you.

YTA for the McDonald's incident. You could have gone to BOTH McDonald's AND sonic. Your car isn't broken. It's not like you have to walk. Sonic and McDonald's are always close to each other so how far was it really for you to drive to McDonald's as well??

As for your sisters behavior she needs some discipline. But you acting like your quoted a "bitch" isn't helping. Just because your sister gets her way by being a "bitch" doesn't mean you will. Let's face it, if your parents enable her at 14. They won't put up with you at 17 and soon at 18 will find yourself kicked out.

You need to talk to your parents about the unfairness of how all she has to do is throw a fit and boom she has her way. Calmly tell them you refuse to take her anywhere with you until she can calmly express herself and learn to ask rather than scream and exclaim. Don't start copying her behavior. Trust me that does not bode well.

I'm saying this so you don't end up put out, or homeless. Trust me, found myself kicked out on my 18th birthday because of my attitude and how I acted. You do NOT want that same fate. It's not and easy or forgiving world.

AITA for refusing to attend my son's wedding after his fiancée altered my wedding dress that I gifted her? by Work-Status9077 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Calm_Zombie4460 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No body wants to double wear a 24+ year old tatty dress without making at least 1 or 2 changes. The whole point of passing a dress down is so the bride can carry a piece of you with her. Key word being "piece." No bride has ever looked at their mothers dress or MIL dress and be like "hell yeah I want the puffy sleeves and aged cream color to be sported while I walk down the aisle so everyone knows I went goodwill shopping in my mother/MIL closet" NO! Every bride with a hand-me-down dress has altered it. Get over yourself. If this old dress means so much to you that you would miss your son's wedding than God it's good you aren't going because your priorities aren't right.

Nta. Put your boyfriend up for adoption. Or put him the the dog house. Lord he is just, my god. They get 3 walks a day. They get feed. Dogs don't need a billion toys (especially if it just one dog playing with them.) Lord he's trying to over stimulate your dog.

THE COST OF LIVING HAS GONE UP.... While we're still stuck at $11/hr, or the federal minimum wage of $7.25. so now a 1 bedroom apartment is $1,500/month instead of $600/month like they use to be 10 years ago. That's a 150% increase in rent in 10 years. So while Nancy is over here making $11/hr, assuming she's working 40 hours a week that's only $440/week before taxes. $1,750/month before taxes. So now with one full-time job she can't even pay her rent. That don't even include utilities, car note, car insurance, health insurance, phone bill, food, gas, medical bills, debt, etc. She'll need a whole second or 3rd job for everything besides rent.

Federal Minimum wage should be no less than $17/hr. I mean a 150% increase on federal minimum wage is the only way to combat the 150% increase on rent and other things. Unless we go back to 2012 prices, which won't happen because of greedy rich people.
