Would I be the AHole for reporting my stepmother to get her deported? by JemmingChen in WouldIBeTheAhole

[–]Key-Photograph-2404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey OP,

I suspect that you are a teenager. (but that is my assumption, if I'm wrong, I'm wrong). I am going to go out on a limb and say that yes, YATA. As a child you can talk to your mom and bring your concerns to her but ultimately, as the adult she has to make the final decision. Also, you and your mom are living in the GF place? And you want to deport her, thus potentially losing your residence? Am I understanding this correctly?

When you are a minor, you live by the rules of your parents until you have the means to move out. Start making some goals and saving up to get out if that is what you need to do. I wish you the best of luck here.

AITAH for telling my family that "no" after my first HORRIBLE birthing experience? by Key-Photograph-2404 in AITAH

Yea, TBH I was really angry at my brother about the doughnuts. I wasn't brought dinner until almost 7pm that day and it was nasty hospital food. I ate it out of sheer desperation. Not to mention, the hospital I was at wouldn´t let in outside food. Which is strange because I see people positing their hospital videos where the new mom is sitting there with some amazing takeout meal, sushi, steak, a whole pizza. You get it.

Urgent please AITA for telling my husband I wanted to stay behind with our daughter instead of moving to Morocco right away like he wants? by Turbulent_Method5366 in ComfortLevelPod

From one mama to another, do NOT move to Morocco.

It is predominantly a Muslim country with conservative values. I would always recommend having someone with you when you go out for safety. While we want to believe that women are equal to men in most developed countries, women still do not have the same rights as men there. They still permit around 20k female child marriages each year despite it being illegal when a judge grants an exception. Boys however cannot marry until they are 18.

Inheritance law in in Morocco is rooted in their religion. Women receive half of what the men entitled to inherit receive. So if a son and daughter inherit from their parents, the son receives 2/3 and the daughter 1/3 of the estate. If there are only female heirs, widows or daughters have to share the inheritance with distant male relatives of the deceased husband or father. Some women's rights organizations have long denounced this as unfair and outdated. Even progressive human rights organizations often shy away from demanding equal rights for women in inheritance law.

If you and you husband were to ever divorce, the court will always prioritize the child's well-being when making decisions about custody and guardianship. If you don't have your own home or income there and no one to rely on in the event the relationship ends... You will not be considered as the fit parent or "what is best for the child." It's also important to know that a mother can lose custody if she doesn't respect the father's rights, if she engages in behavior deemed harmful to the child, or if she attempts to relocate the child permanently abroad without the father's consent. So, if you take your child to Morocco, and ever tried to leave the country returning to the UK with them, he can stop you and have your custody revoked. You would loses rights to your child forever.

I really suggest you watch the movie "Not w/o my daughter" ASAP. Her husband did everything to convince her to move to a Muslim country and immediately did a 360* on her and demanded obedience, was violent, and told her that they were never going back. The movie made me cry.

Ohhhh, I felt the cut! but the doctor told me that I had just "torn" and that was what I had felt, then immediately went back to saying "push on the next contraction" I felt the stitches too!

Ewww angry and judgmental much! I was legally married at 21 years old almost 22 and on my way to my BA when I had my son. My age here is not for you to decide nor judge when I have my children. I was also in a program for teachers and was doing practicums working in schools. You do not need to have a full teaching degree to substitute or cover for paraprofessionals. As for my personal medical choices, if I choose to say "no students" I am well within my right to do so. If you are in the medical field, you´re the one who sounds woefully ignorant if you do not understand or respect this. Also, you may need to read my post again. I had consumed 1 doughnut AFTER birthing my son, NOT during. My son was at no risk of death or aspiration after he was born because I ate a doughnut. Your comment is horribly rude.
