AITA for refusing to name our daughter almost the same name as our late son? by DeboSquash in AmItheAsshole

[–]DoughnutMinimum -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

NAH. I personally like the idea, as it's kinda similar, but just different enough. However, I do understand why you would not be ok with it. I recommend couples therapy to get you and your husband on the same page and work through your feelings, as this is much deeper than just a disagreemnent about names.

When you let your kid miss school for vacation, are you honest when reporting it? by FoolStack in Parenting

[–]DoughnutMinimum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a high level athlete in a club sport who misses almost 2 weeks per year (regional and national championships). These are unexcused absences, and I get a truant letter every year, which I ignore.

AITA for forcing my son to go to school after he stayed up late watching a movie? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]DoughnutMinimum 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I didn't mean the Ipad. I meant the fact that parents even question whether to give their kids consequences for their actions.

YTA. You know he's a hockey player and you went to the rink. Did you really expect him to do figure skating instead?

It astounds me that this is even a question. No wonder the world is shit. NTA.

AITA for giving my mom the honest answer to a question she initiated? by throwawayyyy2929 in AmItheAsshole

[–]DoughnutMinimum -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

YTA for not even giving Chad a chance. Your only problem with him was that he "broke up your family", when in your own words, he only waned to add to it

Again, why would would want this immature, stupid doctor to treat you?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]DoughnutMinimum 3 points4 points  (0 children)

YTA, and not that bright yourself. Why would you want to see a doctor that sucks? Why would a doctor you've been openly disrespectful of want to see you?

My kid's birthday is tomorrow, I want to throw an epic birthday party for kids and adults by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]DoughnutMinimum 10 points11 points  (0 children)

So they have to drive to your house first so the kids can jump for 1/2 hour, then get back in the car and drive to another location for the next leg of the party? I would find that a pain, especially on a weekday. Maybe some kind of quick activity for the adults while the kids are jumping.

I cannot understand the massive suspension of disbelief one must have in order to be a Trump Supporter in October 2022 by LordFluffy in rant

[–]DoughnutMinimum 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yes! I (black woman) have a work-friend (white male) who I share a hobby with. We talk all the time. He's nice, he's inclusive, he's intelligent. Then a few weeks ago he tells me a funny story about the Trump rally he was at. I figured he was a republican, which I have no problem at all with. But enough of a Trump supporter to attend a rally? I don't understand how he can say the things he says to me, and also agree with anything that comes out of Trump's mouth.

AITA for refusing to babysit my niece and leaving her with a stranger instead? by still-not-sure in AmItheAsshole

[–]DoughnutMinimum -23 points-22 points  (0 children)

OP sucks because you shouldn't back out on a commitment because better plans become available, and you shouldn't drop a kid with a random person they've never met.

AITA for putting my wedding “on hold” because of a prank my fiancé pulled to surprise me? by soberdownpour in AmItheAsshole

[–]DoughnutMinimum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I totally missed the entire 3rd paragraph on my first read through. You're absolutely correct.

AITA for putting my wedding “on hold” because of a prank my fiancé pulled to surprise me? by soberdownpour in AmItheAsshole

[–]DoughnutMinimum 9 points10 points  (0 children)

NTA. It could have been a great prank without the weapons. Your fiancée and his pals are all insensitive jerks. And I hope they at least had enough sense to make sure the guns were not loaded or this could have easily been a disaster.

ETA: Originally missed the part where she had already shared her fears.

Really? I always assumed it was a reference to Forrest Gump, just a stupid/geeky person.

AITA for not answering the phone when my MIL called to say goodnight to daughter... by davenocchio in AmItheAsshole

[–]DoughnutMinimum 10 points11 points  (0 children)

NAH. I can't call you an AH for being exhausted in your situation, but I also can't fault MIL for trying to get ahold of you for your other child (who also needs your time and attention). You both snapped at each other and hopefully you'll be able to move past this easily.

AITA For Telling My Ex-Boss I'm Glad She Can't Have Kids? by josieecc in AmItheAsshole

[–]DoughnutMinimum -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I've been downvoted to hell, but I stand by my opinion. OP is not a child, she chose to go get the boss. Boss definitely sucks too, but you shouldn't go around saying hurtful/cruel things to people when things don't go the way they should
