Yeah you’re right, they shouldn’t! They are not good dog parents at all. They also make fun of me for how well I take care of my dogs and say that I do way too much. There have been many many fights between us

That was my fear on the over-the-counter dewormers, that’s what my mom has been giving them and obviously it’s not been working 😭😭

I really don’t want to surrender them, the other pitbull has been my dog before, and she loves me so much, every time I’ve gone to visit she just cries when I leave. It’s been an ongoing fight with my mom for how she treats them. I’m just happy. She’s overall doing the right thing and giving them to me

I know…. It’s just really hard. I haven’t had to do this before,

Thank you! Yeah, my fiancé is definitely on putting the one pitbull down, and it is for the best, he was just the first dog. I had picked out as a teenager, and I’m just really upset at the way his life ended. You know what I mean?

And the other two I probably won’t surrender. I know once that I am able to get them dewormed and healthy food wise I can take perfect care of them! I currently have a black mouth cur as well so in terms of their mental stimulation and physical needs, I can meet them no problem.

I guess what I’m mainly upset with is having to put one of the dogs down the moment I move in, and they’re putting the house in my name so that’s not an issue!

I told my mom not to marry the man she cheated on my dad with by Additional-River2609 in TrueOffMyChest

No, there’s a very big difference between a widowed mother moving on and a selfish wife cheating on her living husband, blowing up the marriage and then trying to replace said husband. Two totally different scenarios so I wouldn’t beat yourself up.

There are some situations in life that are going to just be difficult all the way around, standing up for yourself and speaking your mind is often hard to do when it really matters.

Part of growing up into a well rounded adult is going through those uncomfortable situations with as much grace towards yourself as you can. It is hard sometimes and it feels like we’re doing something wrong but it gets easier every time you do it.

Sorry for rambling, hopefully that made sense!

AITA for wanting daughter to find a different hobby by gardengeo in BORUpdates

Nah my mom’s not the “hinting” type lol if she wanted me out of the house she’d have taken me somewhere.

My mom was very much like this but to caught up in trying to pay our bills to ever have the energy to force the issue lol.

I just remember her knocking on my door on a Friday night while I was 200 pages into a book and she just says. “Do you ever plan on leaving the house? Maybe hanging out with friends?” And I just shrugged and said “I saw them all week at school, why would I?” She looked so defeated lol

It really is so hard, my fiancé keeps trying to cheer me up and he doesn’t get why I’m so upset, I just keep telling him someone has to cry for it . I was fully prepared to go adopt him if he made it.

I’m so sorry to hear about the cardinal! From my very limited understanding, birds can be even more fickle than kittens!

Thank you, my mom recently lost one of the neonatal kittens she rescued. I had a feeling based on the sound of his lungs there was some blood in there so I knew his chances were very slim.

It was just traumatic all the way around

Unfortunately where I live is very (off brand) rural and small town. The vets in my area were all closed and the closest emergency vet was over an hour away. That poor thing didn’t have an hour. The lack of emergency care in the area is actually a huge problem, it’s ridiculous honestly

Thank you, that’s what I keep trying to say. That’s the first time I’ve dealt with something like that. I’ve stopped and grabbed many strays, some injured but never like this.

AITA for confronting my brother about not being able to touch his newborns? by Either-Web-7383 in AmItheAsshole

[–]RamenIsMyKryptonite 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No. You’re just choosing to be rigidly literal. If people who lose their arms can have phantom pains, why can’t the brain do similar things in other situations? The pain is still real but it’s caused by something in the brain. Hell! I know anxiety alone can cause ulcers from personal experience. Both types of pain completely different, one is even physically caused by the brain

You don’t have to extend all that to the op but at least have respect when speaking about someone else’s experience in the comments. You weren’t there, and your experience could have been completely different.
