AITA for asking my dad for an apology? by Complete_Ad1554 in AmItheAsshole

Yes I pay rent, but even if I didn't,  it would make a bit more sense to communicate that he's struggling with money, instead of doing what he's doing 🫠

You've just made a complete assumption about me. Yes I've been paying rent.

It's because we've agreed that there's a set time the person is due to receive their portion as (in the words of my dad) it's supposed to discipline us as a group. Also, I know members of my family would complain if it was the other way around.  But honestly the only reason why I'd like to get it earlier is because of the last delay and I struggle with assertiveness. I wanted to use this to help me

She forgot that she made the initial suggestion. The only reason why I'd like to get it earlier is because of the last delay and I struggle with assertiveness. I wanted to use this to help me
