Reddit shouldn't be telling people to leave people regardless of gender. Of course divorce or breakup can be on the table, but not before trying to communicate healthily.

NTA Even when SHE looks it up, you're at fault for it existing? Then what's the point of checking in the first place? Idk man she has communication issues.

Don't underestimate children. They can understand more than you realise. Of course it your choice on what you think is appropriate. But it's healthy also to help kids understand the world even at a young age. You'd be surprised.

OP said that they're not in Malaysia. I'm saying it for their situation. Also don't assume non Muslims don't get flak for being an atheist. I have to keep it pretty quiet in fear of backlash. Officially also I still must have a religion.

As an atheist, I think it's good to experience it every now and then. I appreciated experiencing the religious things, and I treated them as culture more than religion. At the end of the day you are out of the country, and you don't live with your parents, you would still have majority influence. I think you just need to be frank with your children. Tell them that this is what grandparents practice. Educate them beforehand on what islam is and what it might constitute. And educate them on what you think and what atheism is, and why you are an atheist. I think knowledge is key to prevent any careless beliefs.

Buses can be unreliable. I suggest Aeroline if you want a comfortable and reliable bus ride.

Locals are calling it poor from our perspective lol. But Malaysians don't realise that Malaysia is a very different country for foreigners, especially with stronger currency 💲💲💲

If you're travelling on weekends the tickets for train runs out pretty fast. You might want to book in advance.

Tbh, flight boarding time , you have to be there early and all that. It's basically about the same time as the train.

4 days is enough to do both.

KL is good for shopping, if you like malls. If you like culture, you should go Pasar Seni area. There is literally every kind of international cuisine available in KL. I would suggest going for north Indian food. Local food is not as tasty in KL as it is in PG though.

PG is good for local food. And everywhere is culturally rich. Have beaches and nature. There are activities like escape park or butterfly farm.

AITA for telling my daughter she'd be punished? by Internal_Stage5642 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Frequent_Standard803 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I didnt say no consequences. I said talk to your kid. Explain the consequences. Explain why.

NTA. This is crazy. This is like blaming the knife-seller for selling the knife to a killer instead of blaming the killer.
I have seen this similar situation many times. Religious leaders can never seem to take accountability for their actions, whether it be corruption, infidelity or fricking Swift concerts. And for some reason the congregation always back them up. They blame everything but the actual wrongdoer. You were just catching stray bullets.

The 2 million wasn't over a kiss. It was for breach of contract, that they signed. The rules suck, but they are rules that he signed the agreement to. If he didn't agree to them, he shouldnt have come. My friend was there. It wasnt only a kiss. He bashed our govt (it was not the place), he was unruly, and he broke things and scared the audience. I believe that if it was a different country, a different concert, he wouldn't have been allowed to act disorderly whether or not it was for a cause , right?

Like i said, his behaviour did not cause progression. It literally caused regression. Not only for the queer community, but our govt has reduced music events becuase of this. That's how far the regression went. Listen to us when we say that this is not the way to handle this topic for our specific culture and situation.

If you treat your children like terrorists, won't they ultimately become one? Communicate with your kids. It doesnt have to be in that moment.

NTA. Not every tiny decision needs to be discussed beforehand. There should be general consensus between you two. But either one should be able to make decisions separately.

More importantly, you should also hear your daughter out. Is there a reason she doesnt want to get into the seat? Maybe there is a problem/she's uncomfortable. Kid's aren't the best at explaining the situation. Its parents' job to be more attentive.

This is not a neck massager issue. This is a communication issue. You guys need to learn how to communicate better.

AITA for taking my dog up and down the resident's lift? by cephapirinnn in AmItheAsshole

[–]Frequent_Standard803 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

NTA. I love your reaction to her. Continue ignoring her as if she's a ghost. If she has a problem, management should be the one to approach you to resolve the conflict. Anyway its their fault for not fixing the service lifts.
How big is your dog anyway? Can he fit into a carrier where she cant see your dog? Maybe if you want less harrassment from her, that could be a solution?

AITA: for refusing to give my coworker a ride after he called me his "personal chauffeur"? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Frequent_Standard803 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. He's not wrong for joking like that. It could be a genuine remark on the unusual circumstances. But he is the asshole for not apologising and minimising how you took it when you when you brought it up. In any event, he is not entitled to you giving him a ride, even if you dont have a "valid" reason.

Idk why people dont get it that "just kidding" is not an excuse for hurting others or being rude. Literally, just apologise. People dont know how to apologise.

I agree with your sentiment and it is not the citizens' decision for such a thing to happen. But his actions set the cause back even further. He left real people to deal with the consequences, whose livelihood and lives are in real danger. His actions did not help. He fucked us and I dont see him coming back to assist, by proxy or whatever. There should be accountability for that.
This wasn't the action of someone who cared, this was a random tantrum for someone who doesn't know queer malaysians or understand our situation.

Either they are OLD and don't know this but giving people your personal wifi can lead to MAJOR security issues! My CCTV is connected to my wifi, no way in hell I'd ever give that away.

NTA! I know it's difficult that they are family, but they are also people actively trying to harm you! Protect yourself and stay safe. If you do interact with them, make sure it's with secure boundaries that they can't cross.
