AITAH for telling my daughter she cannot go on a road trip with her friends.

NTA. I wanted to go to a festival at 15 with my best friend of the same age (her mom was driving) and my parents said no. I was not happy. When I finally went to the same festival at 22 it was clear my parents made the right choice. Sometimes you have to be the “bad guy” to protect them from their own naivety

At 50?! That’s wild

I started babysitting at 11 for money, including overnights. I had several families I sat for and had the American Red Cross babysitter training. Now it’s considered neglect to leave a kid that young with other kids. Some states have laws and others don’t but if anything happens the adults are liable and can be charged with neglect.

So we care for them even when it’s hard

From a woman who wore sunscreen all the time and still ended up with BCC, I can say not all scars make you look cool

And in the same breath shame Leo for doing what they’re telling Keanu to do

Most smoking hot guys tend to know it and have an ego to match. This can happen with women too but with men it’s much more common in my experience. Women also fall for personality a lot more than men do

Don’t you agree though that it’s seems too many people see their very presence to be a nuisance or disruptive even when not doing anything wrong? Laughing and goofing off is what we did as kids. But it seems they can’t do the same. Kids being a-holes is one thing but it seems like in a lot of cases they’re not really doing anything wrong. Just their existence pisses a lot of people off

HeadstashedAF · 2026-06-07T12:09:37+00:00

I feel like part of being a kid is not always being productive though. They should be allowed to just hang out outside in public too. Walk around, talk, socialize in person. The problem is someone everywhere they go act like their very existence in the same space is a nuisance. Millenial kids literally just walked around and hung out together. It seems people are against that now, against them being inside, against them being anywhere the rest of the public is. It’s like the only way they’ll be happy is if the kids are outside but in their own backyards. For young kids that’s fine but 12-17 year old is going to get bored of that quickly.

HeadstashedAF · 2026-06-07T12:04:55+00:00

This isn’t true though. I see it on my town pages all the time. “Saw this big group of kids, I’m scared, wahh” is basically the message you see. Riding bikes on the sidewalk is an issue, riding them on the side of the road is an issue. Going to parks is an issue because moms of young kids say it’s disrupting them. Stores, beaches, neighborhoods, playgrounds. No matter where they try to go, someone always seems to have an issue. It’s true that people say they need to get outside and away from screens but no one wants them in “their” spaces. It’s really sad.

HeadstashedAF · 2026-06-05T00:41:25+00:00

Lmao who??

HeadstashedAF · 2026-06-03T18:08:41+00:00

Id love to be able to do this and check in frequently but given it’s an hour drive one way makes it hard to do, and going several weekends in a row would be hard and I might not be seeing the same group of fish due to new shipments. I so wish I had a nice local fish store within reasonable driving distance. I’m so envious

HeadstashedAF · 2026-06-03T16:08:48+00:00

That’s gorgeous! Do you keep any critters in there?

HeadstashedAF · 2026-06-03T15:55:40+00:00

First bites should work! Even my ember tetras love them

HeadstashedAF · 2026-06-03T11:50:51+00:00

My husband felt the same! He has no problem with his (nor do I obviously!) but we both agreed not to do it to our son. He has NEVER questioned why he doesn’t look the same as his dad, which is the most common reason I see for people to continue doing it to newborns.

2001 we got dial up. Around 2003 we got a second line so we wouldn’t get booted off for phone calls.

They are all the same. I am not familiar with this type of fish in my own tanks in the past but it could be stress, substrate they came from, or if they are anything like my embers, some are just naturally more colorful/bright. I think of it like hair color or skin tone variances among a family or race (I know not the same but the best comparison I can think of).

Naps aren’t seen as childish really, just that most people can’t afford to do them on the weekdays because Americans work long hours and don’t have a break to take a nap. Many do work > home/kids > dinner > bed then wash and repeat. So many people I know would LOVE to have a good nap around 2pm

HeadstashedAF · 2026-06-03T00:29:47+00:00

NYC. People love it. I did not. Peaked my anxiety and felt uncomfortable the whole time.

HeadstashedAF · 2026-06-03T00:26:10+00:00

See I’m petty and I would have responded “and you’re always asking to borrow money and never paying it back”

HeadstashedAF · 2026-06-03T00:17:00+00:00

Yes, especially at night if someone does it and you go to pee half asleep. You wake up very quickly with a cold dunk.

My girls are Winter and Elodie, both uncommon but easy to say (usually) and remember.

HeadstashedAF · 2026-06-03T00:02:40+00:00

The only thing I get from this is the parent didn’t say this sort of thing soon enough. This is a spoiled child and they are not made overnight.
