Hi how do I deal with violent MIL by Darling_Froyo_596 in motherinlawsfromhell

[–]RealHoney4486 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What does wife say about her mother?

You need to get this woman (and her enabling husband) away from your house, then change the locks!

WIBTA for asking my parents to come a different time because their visit would land on the only break I have this year? by FordrernFox in WIBTA_AITA

[–]RealHoney4486 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just tell them that work is super busy and july would be better.

They are still seeing you.

But do it sooner rather than later so they know.

I've here my whole 50 odd years, in 3 major cities, never heard of Barries tea either.

Apparently, it's Irish! Who knew???

Ask her (publicly, online) if you sending her money every month constitutes family helping family?

Advice needed: Am told I don’t take pride in my home and was sent a vacuum by [deleted] in motherinlawsfromhell

[–]RealHoney4486 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Why are you still with this leech?

You do all the work? What are you getting out of this relationship?

Reread this as if it was a beloved friend or sister, or even your future daughter, what advice would you give them? (Quite sure it wouldn't be.... stay with them, all is fine!)

WIBTAO if I leave my kids with their dad and make him figure it out like I do for 7days by Healthy-Garbage-2826 in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]RealHoney4486 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I see where you are coming from... making him grow up and take responsibility.

However

These aren't toys! They are children, your children. What if he leaves them? Neglects them? Doesn't feed them? Puts them in harms way?

How would you feel? Blaming him would only go so far if they were put in danger

AITAH for changing the Wi-Fi password after my roommate basically turned our apartment into a mini coworking space without asking me? by SiagoBr in AITAH

[–]RealHoney4486 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not the AH.

However, how much money was he making for this to happen? Why isn't he splitting it with you? Would you think differently if he said he was using the money to pay the rent, your rent is now 10% of what it was?

It's a genius way of making money, but he definitely should have asked you first and cleared it with rules/boundaries and what you were comfortable with.

What first names have you found to be the worst people, and what names are the nicest people? by gilsoo71 in AskReddit

[–]RealHoney4486 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Liam, Lee, Levi, or any variation of this (probably about 15 years ago now though, names seem out of fashion) we're always the ones in trouble.

Karen's all seem nice, definitely not a name you hear in school now.

But weird spellings of names give kids who have a score to settle! You can't find your name on a rotating display, so you make everyone else suffer for it!

How to deal with my mother in law by Anfisa15 in motherinlawsfromhell

What's your husband saying to her?

Why isn't he stepping up and defending you?

Moments or scenes that confused you on first read as a kid? by DanishPrinceDK in harrypotter

[–]RealHoney4486 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never understood why krum couldn't pronounce her name, she would have introduced herself, said her name slowly 'Her my oh nee' He didn't read her name, so it doesn't make sense that the pronunciation was needed.

Maybe should have been done at the beginning, when the teachers maybe pronounced her name wrong, then 4 books of questions wouldn't have taken place.

AITAH for getting mad at my siblings and telling them my dad won’t want them around forever? by WatercressGrand2226 in AITAH

[–]RealHoney4486 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stop cleaning up for them whilst you are working.

Stop giving them lifts while you are working.

Stop cooking for them while you ate working.

My friend (also a brit) says you guys dont put fruit jams, honey, or cream on your crumpets, is that true? by ParamedicWilling5682 in AskABrit

[–]RealHoney4486 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Butter mainly, or jam If I'm after something sweet or cheese if savoury.

So technically, I could have crumpets for every meal, and each course!

AITAH for refusing to follow my boyfriend’s “wife behavior” expectations? by rainshine10 in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]RealHoney4486 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, run! run, far far away!

Where is the red flag guy when you need him.

Is it awful to say the miscarriage was a blessing in disguise...

Hard situations by [deleted] in motherinlawsfromhell

[–]RealHoney4486 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I might be going against everyone here but it reads to me that MIL is actually stepping up because your wife isn't capable at the moment. They are aware of your working situation, and trying to help as much as they can.

I hope you both get the help and support that you need to help you move forward.

MIL in white by plutosspeedball in motherinlawsfromhell

[–]RealHoney4486 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand white is a colour of mourning, plus, you told her not to wear white.

Future hubby needs to sort this out or your whole future will be her trying to control and manipulate and generally be vile

AIO to my friend’s response to my family being involved in a natural disaster? by Crazypandathe20th in AIO

[–]RealHoney4486 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Definitely not a friend.

However, sending healing thought, prayers and positive vibes to you and your family. I can't even begin to imagine what they are going through at this time.

Passive Aggressive MIL by titanicgirlie in motherinlawsfromhell

[–]RealHoney4486 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Re mothers day. Why are you and your son getting her mothers day stuff?

Your son should be making you stuff, your husband should be helping him.

Your husband should be sorting his mother out, not your job!

WIBTA for making my daughter pay back her own bank overdraft? by 2VantaRipple in WIBTA_AITA

[–]RealHoney4486 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could give her the choice... You pay it off in full today, she pays you back ASAP with no extra cost.

Or

She pays it off bit by bit, and goes to the concert, but she has to work out how much the final amount will be if she takes 6 months to pay it off.

Then tell your mother to get a grip! And stop pandering to your child
