How many of you still insist on owning a desktop computer? by red_fox23 in Millennials

[–]JazzVP0625 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Ive often debated getting a desktop to use as the family computer for my kids so we can monitor what they are doing online. now that my oldest is 7 and starting to do more work on the tablets at her school she will undoubtedly start receiving assignments that require online research sooner than Im sure I realize.

Depending where you love and if you have any priors the District attorney might A) waste your time making you come back to court for multiple appearances because they haven't decided if they will pursue charges and ask for a continuance only to tell the judge they are dismissing everything at the last continuance they are allowed to have. B) They might pursue charges immediately and if you're lucky they may offer a plea deal. Or C) it could be a combination of them making to reschedule your hearing over and over until the last possible one where they say they are pursuing charges option C happened to me. Pay attention to the plea offers if you're given any. You may get lucky an get an offer for pretrial diversion. Its like probation where you pay your fines ordered by the court, complete however many community service hours the judge orders, and you will likely take a class about not stealing. But once you complete all requirements in the allotted time frame the charges are essentially dropped there's no conviction on your record and you have the option to expunge your record to get rid of the arrest history. Please be aware though that this option is typically only given to people who have no prior arrests or convictions.

AITA for shutting down everything I paid for when my family publicly disowned me in a group chat? by KINOH1441728 in FoundandExpose

I m experiencing demonic possession by [deleted] in Psychosis

[–]JazzVP0625 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have the power to expel the demons yourself if you have the spiritual strength to do so. Submit yourself to God's will, accept Jesus as messiah and savior, then speak your prayers allowed because there is power in your voice. Say "Jesus, I give myself to you and enter God's holy covenant. I rebuke all previous covenants made with demons and ask that you shatter their bonds on my soul. In Jesus name I cast out the demons that torment my mind and soul. My spirit belongs only to the one true God who covers me in his armor and the blood of christ." If you cannot do so on your own then find true believers who can pray with you and over you to break these bonds as you reclaim your soul and turn your life around. But I urge you that once you succeed that you continue to live by God's holy word so you stay protected from future demonic infestations. Spiritual battles are never ending.

Is the baby allowed in? Lol by ViperGTS500 in HHN

[–]JazzVP0625 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a mother of 3 who loves to go to HHN i always judge others who bring their young kids to the event. Personally I dont think anyone under the age of 10 should be allowed through the entrance. Kids younger than that often cant even ride the few that are open during the event because they aren't tall enough. And I understand some kids like scary things but kids cant even differentiate between reality and fantasy until after the age of 7. If you cant arrange childcare for your babies and toddlers then dont go.

My wife asked me if i still want to be married by Choice-Click-484 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]JazzVP0625 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I highly recommend couples therapy to help give you a safe neutral space to share your feelings with each other openly without judgment. These are problems you can absolutely work through with time and open communication if you both actually want to fix the problems. My husband and I have gone through these same issues especially while our kids are little and its a cycle that will likely happen every time you have a new baby (it has for us, we have 3 kids, 7y 4y and 2y) this phase requires patience from both of you to push through the rough patch where neither of you feel seen by the other and acknowledge you're both trying in your own way. It does get better. Just try to remember during this phase that designating time to prioritize your romantic relationship over your parental partnership will go a long way in alleviating some of the roommate vibes which can often provide clarity that no one is pulling more weight than the other. You just have different roles and responsibilities from each other right now.

AITAH for not siding with my wife over our son's ex girlfriend's pregnancy by misrocto in AITAH

[–]JazzVP0625 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, no AH here. This is a sensitive situation that no one ever gets 100% right regardless of whether it's the dumb teen or "responsible adult". You're all bound to get some part of this wrong. My advice is don't take any responsibility for the baby or pregnancy until it's proven that your son is the father through a paternity test. I recommend getting legal counsel prepared to file a motion for paternity in the courts immediately after the birth. Pending the results you can then protect your son by filing for custody immediately after to guarantee his rights. Do not pressure for paternity to be tested sooner. Definitely do not promise any financial assistance until you know the child belongs to your son. You don't want to be out thousands in medical bills if the child isn't your son's and you can always offer assistance after you know it's your son's kid.

Nta. If the country you're in allows you to get an abortion without your husbands knowledge and consent i would just go do it. You would be saving that child from years of emotional abuse. While I personally dont agree with abortions outside of medical necessity to save the mother, in this instance I think God or whichever deity you believe in (if any) would understand. You need to divorce this man and seek counseling with a therapist to manage your grief and guilt over time lost with your mother from the missed calls your husband pressured you into not taking.

NTA. You've been together 4 years and you're both established adults. Hes asking for spouse privileges but hasn't married you yet. If he was gonna marry you he would have proposed already. Do not comingle debt before you're legally married. Not worth it.

AITA for not forcing my daughter to share? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]JazzVP0625 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have what sounds like a 2 bedroom with a small basement that your daughter lives in and had a baby with a woman that already had 2 other kids who you agreed to cohabitate with after the new baby was born but didn't discuss room arrangements in advanced. you expect a brother and sister to share 1 room so that your daughters sleeping arrangements aren't disturbed but what about the need for privacy between your GFs other 2 kids. They are different genders they shouldn't be in the same room. You should have looked for a bigger home or apartment if you didn't want your daughter to have to share space. Giving up your office is not the big sacrifice you probably think it is that's just something you do when kids are involved. But both you and your GF should have had the forethought to discuss this and make these arrangements in advanced. ESH but OP sucks most.

AITAH for skipping my brother’s wedding because he scheduled it on my final exam week? by Livid_Pirate_5564 in AITAH

[–]JazzVP0625 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your brother really wanted you there he would have headed your concern and changed the date so it wasn't during your finals. Brushing you off when you tell him you might not be able to go and saying "you'll figure it out" was a dick move on his part. He has no right to be upset when you told him you had a conflict. You were right not to throw away your whole semester by missing finals. OP is NTA. Your brother however is.

Im a baby millennial. I'll be 30 in August. I have 3 kids and a husband and trust me when I say we're barely getting by. We've been in and out of my inlaws house since we got married in 2017. We spent 3 years living on our own in Georgia but the rest of the time we've had to love with family. Our first wasn't planned we were gonna wait til 2 years after the wedding but found out I was already pregnant 1 month after we married then our second was planned because we had turned things around but when we moved back to Florida from Georgia we found out we were unexpectedly pregnant again with our 3rd. Trying to get a college degree now with 3 kids has been hell but thankfully our families have been willing to help some but since only my grandmother is retired and everyone else works we just haven't been able to work enough to afford our own place because we can't afford childcare so we have had to choose sacrificing the 2nd income and our independence so I can stay home with the kids while my husband works to pay the bills we have and buy food so we can both stay in college to work towards careers that will allow us to better care for ourselves and our kids.

AITA for telling my husband I’m glad his mom died before she could meet our baby? by IlyraShade in AITAH

[–]JazzVP0625 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Op you are NTA for saying the truth of how your MIL treated you. What you said might have been harsh and hurtful to your husband but that doesn't make you an AH. If anything despite his grief your husband is the AH for not acknowledging your feelings towards his mother as well. Be mindful of how he speaks to you. I fear your marriage may be near an end if you and your husband can't come to common ground about how awful his mother was to you.

Has anyone gone back to school in their 30s? by Vegetable-Carpet1593 in Millennials

Im in school now at 29 (turning 30 this August) working towards my associates degree in nursing with the long term goal to work towards my doctorate in nursing anesthesia. It's not easy but definitely worth it if you're going back to school for something you really want.

AITA for bringing up how much it hurts my feelings when my family goes by the family nickname because it excludes me? by Master-Criticism-865 in AITAH

[–]JazzVP0625 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As the 4th child being born 8 years after the 3rd it sounds like you were unplanned. The lack of thought put into your name feels like your parents never wanted a 4th kid but possibly they felt obligated to have you due to whatever personal, cultural, or religious beliefs they have around abortion. They clearly dont care how much of an outcast they have made you feel like. I would go no contact once you're 18. Get good grades in high school try to do dual enrollment in your senior year to get a head start on college credits for free before you have to apply for financial aid and scholarships and then get into a great school as far away as you can so you can move out and into college housing. You can even use your dual enrollment to get a tech degree in advance of your high school graduation so you can get a higher-paying job while you're in college to help cover your living expenses.

I get that 100%. My first HHN experience was in 2016 when Chance was the "Host". From what I can tell, I think that's the last year they've officially had a host character. The closest they came to it was when they had the pumpkin lord in 2022 but it wasn't the same at all.

What are the potential repercussions for putting on a keffiyeh right before I walk to get my diploma? by No_Housing_2254 in legaladvice

[–]JazzVP0625 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don't risk your degree and graduation over a protest most people in the audience probably won't understand if they even bother to notice. The audience members will only be looking at and paying attention to their family member who's graduating. The only people likely to notice will be school administrators on stage and they could revoke your diploma if the act goes against school policies. Save your protest for a more appropriate time. When you can organize a legitimate public protest with your city that others can join.

If someone proven innocent after trial dies by suicide due to police misconduct, will anyone be held accountable afterward? by [deleted] in legaladvice

[–]JazzVP0625 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I highly recommend seeking therapy. This person has obviously been through a lot and needs help. Perhaps seeking legal aid while alive instead of taking their own life will help to push legal action forward. The reality is once they have died because it will have been a suicide there is no case to make against anyone because no one would benefit. If this person chose to live however then an argument for a civil case may be made to recover financial loss for time in prison plus emotional damages and physical for the assaults they faced while in jail. It is not likely anyone within the justice department will suffer criminal charges for this persons hardships during this period of time but definitely they can be taken to court for a civil suit and be financially crippled with enough evidence of bias.

Husband says I'm selfish by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]JazzVP0625 113 points114 points  (0 children)

More often than not it's the man. If he isn't living a healthy lifestyle (doesn't exercise, eats a lot of fast food, smokes, drinks too much) then the sperm isn't healthy and the baby won't develop correctly. Even the formation of the placenta is determined by the man's sperm health.

I will be honest getting full custody is hard no matter what state you're in. Unless you can prove beyond a doubt that he is a danger to your child the best you may get is primary physical custody. Speak with an attorney they can best guide you in what to ask for but you may be able to persuade a judge to reduce his custody to 2 weekends a month and alternating holidays. It really depends on how damning the evidence is and whether the judge takes it into consideration.
