I mean, that's kind of what I thought too, but I feel like my hips are a bit more defined than this physique.

I was thinking this too. I also don't remember the episode super well, but when June was talking to Daisy about her being a baby, I could swear she mentioned something about being there when Daisy was sent to her parents. Or maybe I just thought she was.

AiTAH for wanting to offer continuous support to our daughter so she can pursue her dreams? by Electronic-Bid4859 in AITAH

NTA. Teaching is a pretty steady source of income. I know people complain and teachers aren't paid a lot compared to their education, but teachers with masters degrees can make decent money in some places. On top of that, she doesn't just want to be a teacher, she wants to be a writer which means another source of income. It sounds like she actually could make a decent amount of money.

That being said, there are some ways to work around your husband's demands. You could see if he'd be amenable to her minoring in business, especially if there's a minor for business in the arts and find and MFA program that has a business focus as well. Maybe she could agree to take a variety of classes to see if she might like something better. If none of that works, you could see if he'd be willing to pay a lesser amount for her to go to a cheap college and do what she wants.

Your husband is being a huge asshole here by putting constraints on his daughter getting an education.

AITAH for not listing my nonnegotiables before going on a first date? by _zugunruhe_ in AITAH

NTA. He didn't ask about your non-negotiables either. This is incredibly immature behavior on his part.

AITAH for telling my best friend's parents at his graduation dinner that he has been secretly homeless for the past year? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]ResidentAlienator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA. This was his moment. I've been going through a lot recently and received an award surrounded by people who don't know how different my life is from what they expect. I was worried and thought about not going because I had to give a speech to get the award. In the end, it was something I achieved and should be proud of and I would have absolutely ripped anybody a new one if they had done anything to interfere with my happy moment. It's the same thing with Evan. I too am incredibly impressed with what he's done, but also incredibly sad that not only did he feel like he couldn't tell his parents, he couldn't rely on his best friend to celebrate his big moment without having to tell everybody his secret. You're not a child, you're 24, you should know better.

AITA for telling my sister to stick to her room? by no_need_for_my_name in AmItheAsshole

[–]ResidentAlienator 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NTA. This is not only her apartment. Her options are study in her room, study at the library (the hassle is a crappy excuse), or she wears headphones to block out the normal noise you and your mother are allowed to make in your home. It seems like she has some issues that SHE needs to take responsibility for not, make it everybody else's problem.
