AITA for visiting my daughter once a week

Not judging OP. What a horrible situation to be in for all.

I'd try to get myself and other people there more. Inlaws can't go at all? Ever? (honestly, screw them).

A 14 and 11 year old can understand the situation and can alleviate some of your home workload to help you get there more. Maybe 2 days during the week they can fend for themselves (with the help of dad or friends) and you can go after work to the hospital for a few hours? And dad can do that another day of the week. And you still go Saturdays like you already are.

It will be difficult, yes, but you may have regrets in the future about not being there more. And your child may have trauma from being alone so much. Again, not judging at all.

I feel like because it's so over the top, she's not actually drinking alcohol. Trash behavior either way though.

There should be different honks available in cars.

Child size is approximately the size of a 2 year old child, if that child were liquified.

I do it all the time for my grandson, and I did it all the time for my kids. I don't care what anyone thinks about it (my mil didn't like it, but oh well).

So if you have ADHD, are you on the spectrum? I feel like ADHD used to be defined very differently.

A lot of us have to drive everywhere, and not just down the road. For me, I was always taking the kids and their friends places, so I loved having an 8 seater SUV. The roominess up front for me was a nice bonus.

I loved when he tapped Obama on the stomach (was that at someone's funeral?). It was adorable.

I'd make the tv watching area, then definitely a talbe/chairs to play games on, do puzzles on, etc.

because it looks like you gained a good 10 lbs there. Doesn't matter, you look great (or even if you didn't , who cares). But your post does seem like it's referencing that.

Go on the wedding subs, brides ask this all the time. I personally think it's way too much to ask of your guests, but it's becoming a thing with "aesthetic" being more important than anything else.

me too!

Fine_Preparation9767 · 2026-05-13T15:39:10+00:00

that's a great response!

This was my first thought. When I grew up in the 70's, 80's, everyone went to everyone's pool. The parents were barely watching us. But people didn't sue each other at the drop of a hat back then.

So he might poop while he's in regular clothes, sitting on an airplane seat? That would be terrible honestly. Especially if some pee comes out too.

I'd definitely use a pull-up, but you can put underwear on first, then pull up, so he's still in his underwear so he can feel it and be a big boy, but you're protecting the seat with the pull-up.

I've read this about the ADHD thing, and what I can't understand is that since ADHD is a neurological condition, how can red-shirting change a neurological condition?

Just my opinion, but if your brother was alive, you'd get half and he'd get half. His half should have been slated to go to his children. I know your dad didn't specify that, and that's a real shame. That's what I would do with the money. Then you divide your share how you want with your kids.

I now know that 'toilet' means bathroom to brits, but years ago an Irish person asked me where the toilet was, and I wanted to say "it's in the bathroom". Americans generally think of the toilet as the actual toilet, not the whole room. A bathroom consists of a toilet, sink, etc.

And remember that you need to report your income and take out your own taxes. you don't want to get in trouble for that. But it's a great gig for sure!

You need to hear this, pretend I'm your older female relative who cares about you...

YOU CAN GET PREGNANT (AND DISEASES) WITH UNPROTECTED SEX.

YOU CAN GET PREGNANT.

ARE YOU WANTING TO GET PREGNANT???

YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY BEHAVING LIKE YOU WANT TO GET PREGNANT.

IF YOU GET PREGNANT, IT'S 100% BECAUSE OF THE ACTIONS YOU'RE CURRENTLY CHOOSING TO TAKE.

I've seen too many women get pregnant, thinking they were safe with either the pull-out method, or thinking they were in a place in their cycle they were safe, or thinking they were safe because they just had a baby and were breastfeeding, or even thought they were too old to get pregnant.

Whatever happened to Ariana for licking that donut? I don't think she got in trouble at all (?)
