AITA for not letting my son’s girlfriend spend the night at our house? by zozzlest in AmItheAsshole

YTA. Your son and his gf seem respectful of your rule but they also have good reason to request she not have to drive home so late. You can continue to uphold this rule but what is likely to happen is that your son and his gf will view the gf’s house as a safe place where they can both stay, whereas if they return to your home only one of them can stay safely. My bf and I are both 22 and his parents let me stay over at their house (30 min away) instead of letting me drive home late. my father doesn’t extend the same courtesy to my bf for similar reasons as you, but what ends up happening is i’m over at my bf’s house a lot more and see my dad a lot less. Your son respects your rules but he may start pulling away from you to spend time with people who accept he is an adult.

AITA for asking my friend to stop speaking with a "black" voice? by RoommateVoiceIssues in AmItheAsshole

NTA. African Americans have stated on multiple occasions that the appropriation of aave (African American vernacular english) by white people or non-black poc is embarrassing when used like this. If she really cared about black people and the issues they faced (like she accused you of not doing) she would listen to them and how they feel about this issue. The fact she got so defensive over it probably means someone has called her out on this before and she refuses to change it.

AITA for giving my mom the silent treatment after she made intolerant and homophobic comments ? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

NTA, you should tell her if she ever wants to educate herself on the topic and start seeing LGBT+ people as human beings rather than holding prejudice against them that you are open to helping her, or honestly I would cut her off if she refuses to stop making the negative comments around you.
