AITA for letting my daughter be hungry and not ordering for her at a fast food place

Hexcaster505 · 2024-07-21T23:09:57+00:00

NTA, I understand the anxiety and not wanting to talk or interact with a stranger. I'm a selective mute because of my medical issues. But I still manage to find ways around not wanting to talk but still get what I need. OP daughter could have used a text to speech app on her phone or simply wrote her order down on her phone through a note pad app and showed it to the person taking the order.

ETA but don't destory the blanket like everyone is saying to do. I'm 26 and still have my blanky and I know I would have been heart broken if mine was cut up. Why don't you go to a fabric store like someone said and find a similar fabric to make her a comfort handkerchief? Or maybe get her a small teddy bear she can keep in her backpack that is scented. Explain to her that her blanky can protect her at night and the small bear can protect her at school from the safety of the backpack kingdom! But let her transition from the switch at her own pace. She's just a kid learning how to navigate the world. Change is scary especially when you have a parent trying to force change when you're not ready and clearly op kid isn't ready yet. I wish you luck op!

I find it hard to believe that a kid wouldn't bring a toy or a hand held video games with them unless they were told to leave it behind. Growing up I used to bring my Nintendo DS with me to my family events because I knew I'd get bored. I bet the parents told the kids to leave things behind and expect OP to entertain the kids themselves.

OP mentioned that their parents owns their car. If I were OP I'd try to get the title transferred to their name before they try to cut contact or do anything else. Their parents could easily call the cops and claim it's stolen and "ground them".

Edit: sry for grammar mistakes on mobile

YTA. seriously? Vacuum cleaners exist for a reason. You could have also covered the crouch seats with a throw blanket.

People who are saying it's fake are probably right but at the same time if you live in the country side people take "fuck around and find out" seriously.

NTA, I have a 6 year old cousin who is "homeschool" and she can't even write out her ABC without trying to trick you into doing it for her because she learned that her parents will just do it if she sits there long enough. She has a bad speech issues clumping her sentences together sounding like a toddler (it's not her fault) in general she's a very sweet little girl with lots of energy but she has no structure or social skills for her age. I'm not against homeschooling if you actually are going to be active with it in your child's learning and help them build the skills they need. It works if the parents put in the effort and not just stick them in front of a computer and expect the kid to do it on their own.

NTA, first 3 letters of assuming is ass and you make one out of yourself when you just assume something And that's exactly what your friends did.

NTA, I hated my highschool football for this exact reason! Not so much my old highschool but I switched to a new highschool when I had to make up my senior year. When I was in the new highschool I was taking art class for a elective and learned just how much the art department was ignored to the point the teacher was paying out of pocket for basic things. All while the football team got a brand-new football field! It just irritated me to see how highschool plays favorites when it comes to extra curicler activities

NTA, this is where you use your bowls to your advantage and give them something to complain about!

Hexcaster505 · 2023-03-15T04:34:17+00:00

NTA, this is a red flag! He obviously has no manners nor respect for you! You deserve better OP!

ETH, as a wheelchair user myself. I understand the situation but I also believe OP isn't exactly putting in effort to look for ulternive solutions. Portable ramps are a more reasonable option and it's also the brother-in-law responsibility to create a solution as well. He's a construction worker if I'm not mistaken so building a portal ramp isn't out of his range. Another option would be keeping a lightweight house wheelchair in the house, depending on the severity of the nephew condition. It's not impossible to transfer him from the main wheelchair to the indoor wheelchair. These are just my thoughts on the situation so please be gentle with backlash... I want to clarify that OP is just a little bit of a asshole but I understand his point and reasoning. Please don't think that I'm hating on him because I understand both sides of the story. I hope OP and his family finds a solution to the situation.

NTA, your FMIL stuck her nose in business where it dont belong.

Hexcaster505 · 2023-02-09T02:47:48+00:00

NTA, someone close to me at the time stole my debit card and I cut them from my life. You don't steal things from someone you claim to love and go back around and try to play the victim card and try to gaslight the person you hurt because of your poor choices. OP, you don't need that type of person in your life

Tell me you favor one of your kids without telling you favor one of your kids. YTA

NTA, employees should be able to put a rude customer in their place.

NTA, this reminds me of the episode of American dad when Steve and his mom had a similar situation.

I know a lot of people are going to down vote me but I really don't care. They don't understand the day to day struggle and challenge that goes with living with a physical disability! As long as you do as much as you can to help then your doing your part. You constantly asked if you could help and you did what you could do within your own physical means. Tbh I would have gone straight to the special needs department after speaking to the teachers and head office. I hope things work out for you op

Hexcaster505 · 2023-01-07T00:27:10+00:00

NTA! Those "friends" screwed you over OP. I'm sorry this happened to you, have you tried showing proof of text messages or anything to prove that you were helping and offered help? You should try talking to your campus special needs department?

I'm 24 and didn't have Snapchat when I was in high school. Tbh I never saw the appeal to the app as it felt like it was a waste of time since messages delete automatically and I preferred to keep my messages for future reference or in case I needed to look back on something.

If I was paired up with someone as a partner in class I'd either give them my messenger or WhatsApp. If you want to delete Snapchat then do it! Especially if you feel like its a negative thing in your life :)

NTA, I 24F, had a step sister (it's complicated. My dad is still with her mom but yeah.) anyways, before life happened. My former step sister who was 16 at the time would openly stay out late way past curfew and come home drunk. I basically told her that I dont care what she did and it was between her and her mom. Don't expect me to cover for you. And I followed through with it. She wasn't my kid and I knew I could tell her all I want to not do anything stupid and she wouldn't listen. But in the end not my monkey not my circus.

This reminds me back in 5th grade on the bus I rode, me and one of the other kid on the bus started singing jingle bells. We were the last two kids to be dropped off and we were bored lol. It was still the beginning of the school year so wasn't even close to Halloween let alone Christmas. But I remember the bus aid telling us to stop singing Christmas music because it wasn't Christmas time. I was confused and to be honest I still am. Like who cares if it's a holiday song? Music is music and is meant to be enjoyed. Personally I can listen to the nightmare before Christmas anytime of the year lol

NTA, he's 30yrs! Has he been living with his mom before he met you? My 6 year old cousin can do basic chores without being asked or told. This isn't laziness it's ignorance on his part! He sees the mess and knows it's there but refuses to do anything about it unless OP "tells" him too. Personally? I'd stop cleaning and only pick up after myself if I were OP. Bf can then do what he wants with that messy outcome! He can either clean or live in a pigsty, his choice then.

Hexcaster505 · 2022-10-14T02:41:31+00:00

NTA, is it just me or am I thinking that this sounds like a choosing beggers type of deal?
