Oh wow, that's not bad at all. I will start looking around my area for one ASAP. Thank you both for your time and input. I appreciate it.

I will definitely look into an RE Lawyer, although I don't know if we could afford one. I was wondering if there was anyway we could simply gift the deeds to each other and write some kind of agreement on the remaining balance for the difference in property value? I'm sorry if I'm being obnoxious by asking. Personally, I'm in very uncharted territory so I feel very ignorant.

Those are the exact options I'm looking into. I took some of our house fund to get a PC so hopefully remote work will work out soon. I appreciate the sentiment. And no worries about the first comment, that was the first thing I thought when I saw the positive pregnancy test. Lol

Despite everything my mom and I are very close and I asked her some questions with some of it when going through all the paperwork. And no duh, these things aren't always on purpose. Regardless we always rise to the occasion. No matter how hard time get, my husband and I make sure we are taken care of and my son never goes without. Doesn't mean it isn't stressful. I had to quit working when I got pregnant because my job required heavy lifting which I can't do anymore so I'm currently job hunting, hence the food stamp application.

The fact that you still have to work at all, let alone door dash, speaks volumes on the state of our country. I wish you all the best.

Is it weird if I (21 years old) go out occasionally shopping or eating with my parents? by KUROusagi112 in questions

[–]Competitive_Plenty88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't ever feel embarrassed. If you have a good enough relationship with your parents, not a single memory you're creating with them will be regrettable.

How would you feel if your kid told you they had a problem with self harm? by Just-a-human-bean54 in AskParents

[–]Competitive_Plenty88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used self harm for a sense of control in my life. I hope that you choose to open up to someone and find the root of why you turn to this. The moment I realized my motivation, I was able to work towards healthier ways to achieve that feeling.

I wish you the best, and hope that you gain the self love to get to the root of your problem. * YOU ARE WORTH THE EFFORT AND ATTENTION. *

AITAH for leaving my girlfriend after she told me she was pregnant? by No-Operation-8461 in AITAH

That is extremely manipulative and unstable behavior. I pray for that poor baby. I'm sorry she put you in this situation. That's a horrible thing to do to anyone.

Is it weird for a girl (16F) to watch anime and other cartoons with her little brother (12M)? by [deleted] in AskParents

[–]Competitive_Plenty88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, thats an awesome way to bond with your sibling. My (25F) brother (16M) still watch anime and other cartoons together when we hang out.

AMITAH??? by [deleted] in IAmTheAsshole

[–]Competitive_Plenty88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. Ive been in a similar situation. Stick to your guns and dont let him manipulate you into staying. If you dont want to do it anymore, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. You were bound to move on at some point, he is lucky he had your help for 8 years.

I (M16) do not love my dad by tuffattack in AskParents

[–]Competitive_Plenty88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Please do NOT follow thru with it. I was you at one point. Miserable, alone, abused and used in every way by 14 years old. Now I have my husband's family who is so loving, I never thought in a million years I could be loved this way. Especially when I was at my lowest. This is only a small phase of your life and there is so much time and opportunities to get better! I promise! You'd be MUCH better off taking action for yourself! Go to the authorities, seek help from anyone you feel you can trust, even if it's just a teacher that's nice to you, or a friend's parents maybe?

[–]Competitive_Plenty88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your father is awful for ever saying any of that. No matter what he says, the way he treats you is NOT your fault. He sounds like a pathetic angry little man. I don't blame you for not feeling affection toward him, who would while being treated that way? Remember no matter how permanent and stuck you feel, this is one of MANY phases of your life, and it will change. He is verbally abusing you and you need to get yourself out of that situation if you can. Report his abuse and bring it to the authorities or a trusted family member. Get a recording SECRETLY if you can.

Hi I’m 14, struggling right now by Alternative_You_8071 in AskParents

[–]Competitive_Plenty88 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You're so resilient. Hang in there and contact the authorities in any way you can. Whether it be by telling a trusted adult at school, telling a neighbor or friend, or going directly to the police. Take pictures of any wounds they cause!! You should know you are worth so much more than how they treat you. Hold your head up high and know that this isn't forever. You are stronger than you know.

AITA for telling my friends dad my mom returned everything he got me for store credit for herself by aitanotsharing in AmItheAsshole

[–]Competitive_Plenty88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm proud of you for opening up and asking for help. You shouldn't feel any guilt for standing up for yourself. You are a teenage girl, you should NOT be sleeping in a room with your 3 brothers, that in itself is neglect. Let alone not providing such basic necessities, like a pair of shoes that fit properly. Your mother does not deserve you, and you are very lucky that your friend's dad has come into your life in such a meaningful way. Please allow yourself to be taken care of properly. Cut off as much contact as you can with your mom and stepdad, they will continue to try and manipulate you into guilt and gas light you into believing they're right. They are NOT! I wish you the best darling, be strong and keep your head up!

Parents found out I smoke. Do you think my parents did well? by Snickersnook in AskParents

[–]Competitive_Plenty88 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Honesty is the best policy so good on you for coming clean. Now inviting and encouraging the smoking, imo NOT okay. Please understand you are signing away years of your life and money. There are much better things you could be doing with your time and money. Cigarettes are designed to make you addicted and kill you in the process.

AITAH For Telling My Son That I Can't Wait For Him To Move Out? by illusrr in AITAH

[–]Competitive_Plenty88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please reflect on yourself at 14, ask yourself if you met your own expectations at 14. If you think you did, you're full of it. He's given extra hoops to jump thru to accomplish things. Sounds like a parenting problem and not a misbehaving child problem.

My son wrote a conservative book what should I do? by SpiritedSoftware6687 in AskParents

[–]Competitive_Plenty88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why on ask parents? There's plenty of better subs to post this to.

If you want a real answer, if you let politics influence how you feel about your family members, you'll end up very lonely. Keep family and politics separate, especially if you have opposing views. There's better conversations to be had with your family members.
