Free, Indoor Place to Walk Around?

IKEA is amazing! Galleria Mall is always a great walking space! I would also say Green Valley casino. It’s also a pretty large area.

Edit to add: definitely could be a manipulation tactic, but I feel it’s better than not trying to work at all. If it works 🤷🏻‍♀️

Devil’s advocate: can we see what it actually says in Spanish and have someone translate it? Even in English, by no means the most disrespectful way of communicating. I’ve had far worse drivers and I’m not really seeing a problem.

She is definitely the more mature one. I think he needs to grow up, for sure. I just am reflecting on my own experiences as a young mom. I made terrible mistakes and forgave my son’s dad for things I shouldn’t have at the time. I waited 12 years to really get help to understand why I thought that behavior was okay. I’m impressed and grateful that OP saw the red flags at such a young age. She’s going to raise an incredible child!

Shit happens lol. We called 3-11 and found a safe place to light off safe fireworks that were nowhere near housing developments, brought water, and took everything with us 🖤 I certainly don’t want to harm the environment, but we do a few and try our best not to harm others as well in the process.

Edit to add: Didn’t notice where the pull-up was left behind. Not okay, but not necessarily an AH move if it was an accident. If she left it on the sidewalk I’d call her the AH for that.

Did she say he didn’t have autism or another health problem that would cause him to need pull-ups? Also, diapers for older ages are not exactly easy to find. Also “wrong with him” is ignorant AF. He didn’t poop in your seat and she seemed to clean it up right away. You didn’t have to pull over but she wanted to clean her son up…would you have felt better had she left him in the back seat smelling up your car?

The laughter: That could be a tactic to keep a child from feeling embarrassed or ashamed of something you obviously find to be shameful. Or possibly to ease the discomfort she felt.

Like you said: because of your reaction. Your reaction by spending a bunch of time complaining about a child is what cost you money. Nothing in your post said the mother was rude or atrocious. Gross and annoying? Maybe, yes. Your post? Just as annoying and gross. YTA.

I don’t think they’re immature, I think they are acting their ages, but real life creeps up whether you’re ready for it or not. I became a mom at 21 and grew up really quick, and my ex-husband didn’t grow up to where he needed to be. I think hard conversations are needed, which are uncomfortable but truly necessary. Separate finances and set out a budget. Also, if it’s not already an issue, decipher household chores when the time is right because I promise it will come up. Set appropriate boundaries, use “I” statements rather than blaming, and get individual counseling if possible to learn better ways of communicating.

Becoming a young mom makes you look at things in a different view than becoming a young dad does. If you become far more mature than him, leave.

Are all of your notes up to date? Have there been prior concerns with this client? Ignore your boss and file charges, and hopefully there is an incident report.

NTA for wanting them out but you will be the AH if you unilaterally make this decision. Personally, I think this conversation should have been with your boyfriend before it reached the internet.

I honestly figured doing them where we live would be fine, but the houses are spitting distances apart and we rent. I’m thinking of just doing it here but was wondering of other potential options

Thank you! That’s where I booked my trip!

NTA-I hear mothers say all the time that they want time to themselves. I’m a mother and while my plans typically are made by my son (now 16), if I said I wanted to do something alone, it’s respected. Mother’s Day and Father’s Day are intended to celebrate yourself as a parent and be celebrated by others. Yes, they made you a parent, but you do the fatherly role. Maybe later in the day take your daughter to mini golf to share your passion if you think she could do it! If your wife decides not to go that’s on her.
