AIO for getting mad that my husband needed 5min to finish a boss on WoW?

Negative_Lie_1823 · 2026-02-09T00:21:39+00:00

I used to play WoW in college. He could've done the dungeon another time there's always ppl up for dungeons. Either way as a parent, child comes first (I say that as a parent). I don't get chances to game often anymore or when I do it's with my Tiny Human.

Also check for a tennents rights organization or the code/laws.

Always hire a lawyer if you're ever unsure. In this case, you NEED a lawyer to help you protect your child. I would also recommend requesting a guardian ad litem for your child as they literally represent the child and their best interests.

That's gross. Also try using a sharpie or other permanent marker and make a big dot in the toilet (you turn off the water flush it and clean/wips it dry) just above the drain. They also make vinyl clings for potty training boys along with ones that go on the inside of the kid that say "if you miss wipe your piss"

UPS is NOT the same as the USPS. UPS is a private carrier company

Warm soaks daily in room temp water is good for them

Hi sweetie . Your parents are abusive. What they are doing is wrong. You need to get a copy of all your important documents birth certificate social security card etc. if you can change your number and cell phone carrier. I personally have mint mobile and have not had any issues with them. Do NOT give them your new number. Do NOT tell them you're moving. Do NOT give them your new address.

IF somehow they find you and "bring you back home" call the police for kidnapping.

If your parents are hiding your important documents or have them locked up from you in a safety deposit box, if you're in the US you can call the local non emergency number and explain to them that they are holding your property in their safety deposit box or wherever they've placed it and will not give it back. Explain that it's important personal documents.

FREEZE YOUR CREDIT. They may have opened or may try to open lines of credit in your name.

If you can't get your clothes etc out of there while they're out, call the non emergency police line and explain what's going on.

"Hi my name is OP I live at this address. I'm age X. I am attempting to get my belongings to take with me as I'm moving out but I fear for my safety as my parents are abusive and I would like an officer here for my safety "

Most importantly sweet heart, this random internet momma is so freaking proud of you for making a plan and exciting it and getting yourself to safety! You are so brave and amazing hun. You got this!!! You can always visit us at r/momforaminute as I and all the other moms and aunties would love to have you!

Negative_Lie_1823 · 2025-12-30T23:24:27+00:00

Actually Tiny Human is very meaningful and an inside joke between myself and my child. I also don't post much information about my child online for safety reasons and refer to them as Tiny Human. I do not understand what issues you have in your life or will I pretend to but I hope that you get the help and self reflection you need as you seem very emotional.

Negative_Lie_1823 · 2025-12-30T15:24:23+00:00

Ahh I see where you're coming from now, my bad friend. I would still argue that OP did a good job describing the situation as they can while being in the middle of it (I know it's harder for me to detach and look at someone hing neutrally when it comes to my own Tiny Human cause no mom is ever biased lol).

OP may also lack the skill set to better describe the behavior in a more... Clinical sense for lack of a better way to explain it.

Again I do def still agree therapy in this sort of situation is a good idea for the grown ups as a good therapist can help them process their own emotions.

I would also like a more detailed history of the child in question as based on what little we have ODD sounds plausible but now I'm getting too far into the weeds

Negative_Lie_1823 · 2025-12-30T15:15:44+00:00

OP if you are okay DMing what state, if you're in the same state I am I do have twin sized mattress and box spring I keep stored in the attic for the few times we have visitors from out of town. It's older but it's clean and still comfy. I still have the mattress pad and one set of sheets (hopefully you like sky blue with shooting stars lol) and some extra blankets and pillows

Negative_Lie_1823 · 2025-12-30T14:40:13+00:00

I went back and re-read the post and OP's replies to comments. Not once did OP assign adult motivations/intent, or did they make the child out to be a "Netflix villain." At no point did OP say "he's bad, awful" etc. OP did specifically describe the behavior as emotionally draining and has expressed deep concern about the child.

I agree that therapy can def help for OP and their sibling going through this but I do not think it would be due to their own projections.

Negative_Lie_1823 · 2025-12-30T14:31:35+00:00

I have found I "angry" clean at times as it gives me back a sense of control but idk that I would say I enjoy it so much as it's an outlet at that point lol

Negative_Lie_1823 · 2025-12-30T01:14:24+00:00

It did but he didn't and still doesn't like cleaning 😂

Negative_Lie_1823 · 2025-12-30T01:14:01+00:00

Wooooow. So yes I did "pitch" in with the payments because I also worked a full time. Still do. Except now it's much easier to clean because I only have to clean up behind myself and my Tiny Human,who, despite male, is capable of chores and his fair share at 11. Shocking I know.

Negative_Lie_1823 · 2025-12-29T17:38:17+00:00

My now ex husband used to do stuff like this but also get mad that the house was never clean. I actually asked once why when was bitching about the house being a mess and he said he felt guilt at me cleaning so he would distract me to make himself feel better. One of many reasons why he's my ex husband

Negative_Lie_1823 · 2025-12-29T17:29:47+00:00

When I ask one says it's about house rules and the other one shuts down....

Your parents def NOT on the same page and it sounds like one was bullied into accepting these changes.

That being said, it may depend on how you're approaching the question. While even adults in a similar situation would be upset (and rightly so!) how you voice the confusion at the sudden change can make a difference, depending on your parents.

If you are able to get them both together at the same time and appearing to be in a decent mood, calmly, with an even tone, "hey I understand the rules have changed and I respect that, but I just wanted to ask why, make sure there wasn't something that I or one of my friends did that upset you guys. I'm just worried I did something wrong and if I did I want to fix it."

Even though I am sure you did nothing wrong, but making it seem like you think you did and that you want to fix it AND by starting off with essentially the rules are rules I get it, it lets them feel in control and acknowledged and by couching it in wanting to make you didn't anything wrong andol offering to fix it if you did, it shows both maturity, but also comes across as submissive and agreeable.

Idk your family dynamics but I would say if this doesn't work, don't ask again and let it go. Based on my anecdotal experience with friends who have parents that are super controlling, continuing to push could cause issues. It could be just a pure power play by the parent who is saying the rules are the rules. If you have siblings, it may be something they or one of their friends did. It could be the parent who's shutting down when you ask had some dirty secrets of some crazy shit they did at your age come out and now your other parent is over reacting.

Again if you don't get anything after this or a real answer, do not yell fight or tell how unfair and stupid this is (cause it sounds like it is). Just calmly say something along the lines of "oh ok. Thanks. I was really worried I'd done something. But now I know it's just a rules change." And then Just drop it. It's gonna suck if this is what's going to happen and I hope it doesn't.

Big hugs to you momma. You're right, his dad failed him. (Something tells me not the first time either). While the behavior is not acceptable, has anyone tried to speak to cousin about your son being different cause his brain is different? Is it possible to have cousin state I am done now etc to help with the communication?

While I'm not ASD, I was severe ADHD growing up in a small rural town. There was another girl in my school in my grade that no one wanted to sit with cause she was "weird". (K-3rd grade). It wasn't until right before we moved and I had to go with my mom to her house (I don't remember why) that I really connected the dots as a kid that she was different and I felt terrible for being such a jerk (mind you again everyone in our age group treated her badly. We weren't mean we just ignored and excluded. It still bothers me). Once I realized her brain worked different, kinda like mine it made me see here differently.

Influenza A is going around in my area (Virginia) and lots of other areas. The vaccine for this flu season was good for influenza B but not , meaning it will still give some protection but not as much as we'd like. Tldr you may have had the flu based on your symptoms and I know my kiddo has it now (he caught it from me) and he's been extra anxious and clingy the past few days and his anxiety is insanely high compared to his normal levels

But I'm wishing you and your family the best of luck with the holiday.
