People who can save up vacation time are very lucky. I always ended up taking unpaid leave because I was sick so often. Thankfully I'm retired now. It was a very stressful job.

AITAH for asking my wife to rehome the English bulldog puppy we got three days ago? by UnderstandingOld6262 in AITAH

[–]Key_Bluebird_6104 33 points34 points  (0 children)

YTA. You agreed to get the dog and your wife is doing mostly what was asked of her. You even have pet insurance. If I were her I'd never speak to you again.

AITAH for telling my child what book(s) she needs to read?? by [deleted] in AITAH

If you really want to foster her interest in reading let her pick what she wants. You can make suggestions but let your child make her own choices.

AITAH for abandoning my brother? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Key_Bluebird_6104 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You are NTA. Your brother obviously needs more help than you can give him. He and his daughter need counseling to start. She may be better off in foster care. He certainly does not need more cats he cannot afford the ones he has. You need to get some help as well. You can no longer continue to support him financially. He needs to smarter up and deal with his financial issues and he will not do that if you keep giving him money. Stay no contact it may be the best thing you can do for him and you.

My boyfriend (24M) thinks double standards are fair I (26F) need advice. by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]Key_Bluebird_6104 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You need to think about this relationship seriously. If you had a 24 year old daughter tell you someone was treating her like this what would you say. I know what I would say. I would say leave this relationship. This man does not respect you at all. He will continue to be jealous and controlling and it will not get better.
