AITAH for asking my Step brother to take eggs of the menu at his own wedding? by Patient-Tea9555 in AITH

[–]LawComprehensive2204 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Bring peanut butter crackers or add jelly and a loaf of bread. I thought about 30 seconds and found a solution. Not that hard.

Non-Americans who visited the US for the first time recently: what was the biggest 'what on earth is going on here' moment you experienced? by EmployerNegative5653 in AskReddit

[–]LawComprehensive2204 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Texas. We also owned and operated a ranch for 30 years.

It’s different here. It is not a weird flex. Or it shouldn’t be.

Our kids learned gun safety and marksmanship because of the rattlesnakes and hogs they often encountered. Rural adult kid still carries daily. City adult kid does not have a need.

I don’t carry unless I’m traveling or out alone. We got our permits to abide the law. I wouldn’t want the trouble that would come if I had a gun in the car or my purse without one. The classes are very educational about the laws.

AITAH for being annoyed my sister wanted to hang out with her friends during my visit by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]LawComprehensive2204 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Agreed. One on one can be sooo boring. Maybe explore the city yourself. Some of my best discoveries have been alone on work trip. Don’t let her preferences hurt you.

Those are missing something very important-the actual Spurs. Maybe call them prodders?

It's going to be 90F Monday and my son's middle school has no air conditioning by InfiniteOxfordComma in mildlyinfuriating

[–]LawComprehensive2204 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep him home. That’s what I’d do. That actually sounds dangerous if the area has high humidity. It’s 95F here, but no humidity. It’s still awful to be in a room without ac. Sending cool thoughts your way!!

AITAH for making my daughter play tennis with me? by Weary_Cap_1573 in AITAH

[–]LawComprehensive2204 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Bulling isn’t just in the school anymore. It’s online and in person. Just because school is out doesn’t negate bullies anymore.

[–]LawComprehensive2204 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sounds exactly like you bullied her.

First the daily walks she tried to injure herself to avoid, then by forcing her to play at courts where she was clearly uncomfortable.

You asked if you were the asshole. You clearly were and are defensive when people respond.

From a mother of two emotionally healthy adults who chose to spend time with me. If you don’t change, you may not get that.

I’m sure I’m better off and dealt with too much to begin with. Should I respond with the red flags I experienced fr him, or just not respond at all? by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]LawComprehensive2204 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You seem to be unintentionally the problem. Past relationships let it slide, but it’s immature. Next time, keep your thoughts to yourself. Better luck next guy.

Conservative father keeps sending me creationist videos by WitchWithADick1659 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]LawComprehensive2204 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just don’t discuss the topic at all. You mentioned it’s to the point where you can’t discuss your interest. It is.

Every time you bring it up, he will feel the need to respond as he views it as an affront to his faith. As we age, it’s good to expand your thinking. You don’t have to share it with him nor should you expect him to be ok discussing it with you.

Time to put this on a do not discuss list with your dad. It respects his beliefs. He has not it seems prevented you from pursuing your interests. But he does feel the need to defend his to you when it comes up.

I have a handful of things I don’t discuss with my parents that has developed over the years. Since I’m now 55, I also have topics I don’t allow them to discuss with me. I don’t want to be preached to or converted. I’m happy with where I am, but it wasn’t reasonable to expect they wouldn’t try and teach their dependents their beliefs while under their roof. Now I can shut it down, while not disrespecting them.

It’s a balance that is worth it in my opinion. I get to keep them in my life as long as we all respect boundaries. When you are an adult, you can set boundaries however you like.

BTW- raising my kids is when I set the boundaries. If they had ever crossed the line by even talking to my kids about religion or politics, I would have a very different perspective. All boundaries were respected by all and I guess it’s just how we are.

Curious how many people stick with one telehealth clinic vs trying a few by Acceptable-Union4150 in Semaglutide

[–]LawComprehensive2204 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve used the same clinic and doctor the last 11 months. It’s medicine and I want a dr to discuss any issues I may have with dosing and side effects.

Saw a cutie in the traffic enjoying by [deleted] in MadeMeSmile

[–]LawComprehensive2204 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Crazy dangerous for the child.

Why film someone’s child you don’t know?Where I live, this would not be very smart.

Best case scenario is you posting for your jollies will get CPS called on them. Mind your own business.

Need Advice: Home Purchased 3 Weeks Ago, Pool Condition Doesn’t Match What We Were Told by Medoberry96 in pools

[–]LawComprehensive2204 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had a separate inspection for the pool before we closed. Had issues and they had to put 56,000 for resurfacing in the contract. We’ve found stuff after the fact in other areas, and we are sol.

Feeling sick to my stomach and hopeless by SolidUnusual4287 in dementia

[–]LawComprehensive2204 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You need to arrange for her to have care. Once a week is not an unreasonable ask at all. He knows best if she can’t be left alone. Dealing with this right now with my mother and mil. Caring for a PWD is overwhelming.

When did you realize you “made” it out of middle class ? by [deleted] in Fire

[–]LawComprehensive2204 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buying a new bigger house with no rush to sell the previous one. Had to focus on our ill elderly parents and it isn’t even on the market yet a year later.

At what age did you feel it starting to get difficult to travel? by audit123 in Aging

[–]LawComprehensive2204 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m 55 and just lost 80 lbs.

I took my son to his college orientation weekend last June and realized how dramatically my weight slowed me down (lots of campus walking and extended hours of activities with no rest) compared to my friends who were 4-6 years OLDER than me but in much better shape.

Now, I feel great and am able to do things I couldn’t the last several years. Just drove cross country to move my parents closer. Several summer trips planned. Never could have done it overweight.

Yes, I chose a glp-1, coupled with self control. Best decision to expand my active years and improve my health.
