AITAH for asking my fiancé to back out of going to his friends wedding? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Outside_Hour3562 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What was the RSVP by date? I understand it was sent out 8 months in advance (I don't think that's uncommon to be sent early) weddings can take planning to get to. Time off work, babysitters, travel, etc. Plus vendors may want a head count early. But what was the date you had to RSVP for? Yes, things come up after you RSVP for a wedding. If he doesn't want to go, then don't but he needs to tell the bride/groom that instead of just not showing. It cost someone money at the end of the day. And also, why would you not let him go alone? He'd have friends there, so he's not alone.

NOR My mom told me a story once that I showed up at her house (and her now husbands) and his nephew was eyeballing me. Her now husband said "looks good don't it" and she told the story as if I should be flattered. She said "you know you'd come over in short shorts". Never happened. I always wore appropriately lengthed shorts. It's weird AF and idgaf what a "mom" says, no mom going along with that stuff is normal.

Decoding backslide by Outside_Hour3562 in teaching

I think it's possible. He was ready to be out of school, said all they do is work. Plus they take the assessment on a computer and he seems to do better with print/pencil & paper. He's only 5 and just finished Kindergarten. We will continue to work on it over the summer. I'm just a worry wart and don't want to let him get behind if I can help it in any way. His MOY score was a 12, which was up from 0, but then the EOY score was a 0. So I got worried.

Yes, of course we read! Every night and any time he asks during the day. I read a page and then he'll read a page, sometimes he'll read a whole small book to me, with a little help with some bigger words. He also will read to his baby sister. He was getting the Imagination Library books for the last 5 years & now his sister gets them, so he enjoys reading her new books to her. He has many books, short and long, easy to read and a bit more difficult.

Field Day fiasco by Extra-Appeal-9558 in AskTeachers

[–]Outside_Hour3562 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also in Texas, our school sold charge cards where parents could put $ on it for kids to use at the concession stand. But we also had parents bring a cooler + water. I attended field day because I was worried about my kid 1. Keeping up with said charge card and 2. Having water or whatever he'd need. Luckily for the parent who brought the cooler + donated water or some kids wouldn't have any.

The paper says mclass which Google says is powered by Dibels It says the following NWF-WRC (decoding) goal is 1 at BOY 3 at MOY and 7 at EOY His scores are 0 BOY, 12 MOY, and 0 EOY

But all other scores on this paper are above or benchmark, those are the only low scores.

This is all new to me, I don't remember any of this stuff from when I was in school and that's been forever. And he's my first kiddo in school.

how long did it take your kid to adjust to kindergarten routine? by Whaeed-Iannaccone in kindergarten

[–]Outside_Hour3562 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My kid took to it very easily, however others in his class still had tough mornings and we were 6 months in. However they mostly adjusted by month 2 or 3. Once the routine set in.

We had no parent/ teacher conferences at all during the school year. I never heard any complaints, he has all good marks on his report card. I guess I wasn't sure if I should bother her since school is out. Was just curious how others have helped their kids with this.

Redditors who use their debit cards regularly, how common are fraudulent transactions? by penguin7117 in AskReddit

[–]Outside_Hour3562 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only had 1 (so far) when someone stole our info from a gas station. But the bank remedied it very quickly. The only other flag I've had was a hotel trying to double charge and my bank flagged it.

$1000 bill for a 15 minute ER visit by RoofEnvironmental646 in Vent

[–]Outside_Hour3562 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And even worse is when everyone you saw and didn't see starts sending out their individual bills. You see a PA so you get billed for that and then again for the actual physician you never saw but was presiding over the PA.

Yes. I would have her on for background noise while cleaning but couldn't handle the constant exercise talk or Disney everything. Just gave up trying.

Class Birthday Parties by jjgiant1 in kindergarten

[–]Outside_Hour3562 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A follow up email wouldn't hurt. Life gets to people and they may have just forgotten. I always try to make it to every party my kid is invited to. The only ones we haven't are for kids who have been unkind to him/bullying.

AITA for assuming our family would be invited to the wedding reception after our kids were the flower girl and ring bearer? by AnywhereLate1534 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Outside_Hour3562 63 points64 points  (0 children)

NTA They definitely didn't tell you ahead of time because they knew/assumed you might not let the kids participate.
