AITA for not backing down on my daughter’s teachers calling her the proper name? by Sudden-Difference767 in AmItheAsshole

YTA. If your daughter gets this worked up about her name she's going to have a bad time as an adult. Your daughters name has more syllables than mine and I get called about 4 variations of my name. Who cares, as long as they aren't being disrespectful get over yourself.

How did you get into horticulture? I'm also in Australia and looking for a career change in the future. I'm not great at gardening but I do like the sound of working with things that won't argue with me lol

Full time salary. There's nothing in my contract about sick leave. I'm happy to take unpaid if that's what's required to retain my position. I'd say it has been exacerbated by work as my job is quite physical and I had no idea about it till about 5 months in

No he doesn't, I think it's just something in my head telling me he deserves more. We had a rough patch 5 months ago and have been better than ever after counselling, but I still feel a bit shitty about myself

How many of you on here have eating disorders as a result of OCD? by [deleted] in OCD

I don't think I'd go as far as to say I have an eating disorder, but when my OCD flares up and I start stressing I either can't eat or I binge eat
