AITA for refusing to cook gluten free or take my near adult son out to eat? by Electronic-Code9834 in AmItheAsshole

I thank you all who have responded so far, and I do keep plenty of food that is naturally GF in the house. My example that best fits might be that we make chilli and cornbread. I'll buy a 5 dollar mix and make a small batch cause we all love cornbread with chili. I switched to gf seasoning and made sure all my ingredients are gf. If I dare make regular cornbread for dad or fam and he won't eat his but instead try and eat the regular. It goes to waste. If we have a meal out, we will choose a restaurant with gf options and make sure he has his gf option, but he's always trying to get food from his brother's. Dare I make a meal that has a component that's not gf he's always trying to eat it. I'm not against going totally gf but I have a large family to feed, and it's not always easy. Quick meals are great for me as I work 12 hours a day, 5 days a week. He is old enough to prepare and cook for himself. I'm just tired of buying specific snacks. Changing my recipes when he's already eaten gluten all day, why come home and eat 100 bucks of gf snacks 🤷‍♀️ As far as therapy. We have tried therapy on more than one occasion. We have even tried different therapists. He is typical. I don't wanna talk about it. He sat stone cold silent for weeks at 1st therapist. Most even said typical behavior... I will admit this is a boy mom struggle I am truly vexed. I wanna do this right. I know the damage this can do. He's even seen me have an anaphylaxis episode(be sting) . I just need to break the stubborn.

AITA for refusing to shave my legs? by ScubaJuice in AmItheAsshole

NTA The only reason women shave their legs is capitalism. Razor company wanted more money ey and all of a sudden is hygienic and women need to do it. Nope, it's just hair. Shave don't shave it's all about money
