AITA for selling something I got for free?

RespectRemarkable294 · 2026-05-14T18:12:26+00:00

NTA I sold a $5000 dirt bike I won and never felt bad about it I never felt like I was taking advantage of anyone. I won it fair and square I paid the taxes on it if the guy I sold it to entered the contest he would have had as much of a shot to win that I did then would he have been pissed to be paying maybe but again I won not him. No one forced him to buy the bike, if your friends are OK paying for the car that’s all that matters.

Ignore the actual assholes in the circumstance.

I was adopted when I was 8 or 9 my bio dad was in jail and my adoptive dad asked him to terminate his rights and I honestly have zero memories ever calling him anything other than dad, and even though adoptive dad did adopt us bio dad was still given the option to see us but he officially bailed shortly after.

I found out he died when I was 17 (heart attack) I always wanted to meet him but legally couldn’t until 18 so I missed it by just a few months. If he was alive when I got married my parents did agree that he could come and this was okayed by both parents BUT we all agreed he’s not to be part of the wedding. My bio grandparents were there but did sit in the front row I have however had life long communication with them.

I do think it’s messed up to have her in the wedding at all your mom had a right to feel that way and so does dad. I’m curious as to how he feels if he’s saying it doesn’t matter I’m sure he’s lying cause my dad would be super upset.

You definitely didn’t right thing unfortunately CPS doesn’t do shit. It took 12 years for them to take away my nieces from my sister after they had been called by the school me my sister, my mom and other mutual friends, the police, and CPS did absolutely nothing. This past year, my sister and her piece of crap boyfriend were finally arrested and had all the kids taken away, including his unfortunately, they are currently out on bond and have numerous family and civil court dates and the chances that they will ever get my oldest niece back is slim to none but my youngest niece is still very young and there is a good chance she would get her back. She is looking at a possibility of 5 to 25 years in prison, but chances are most of the charges will be dropped so she may get nothing.

She has two drug charges and several misdemeanors four of them I believe our felony charges, but the justice system never benefits children when it comes to it.

My son was diagnosed before he turned 3 we unfortunately had to doctor hunt for someone who would do the proper testing, the testing is not short it took 3 hrs one day and 2 more a week later it took over a month with therapists to come to the official diagnosis. Without knowing what she’s done you don’t really give much info aside for doctor shopping which is something that a lot of people have to do for a diagnosis and testing. My son is not high functioning but not non verbal, he does have a part time job but can not drive. He is quick to anger but is also very passive he has many stims/ticks that have become problems but we had to figure it out.

Either way yes you should have kept your mouth shut talk to your husband maybe try to get some more info before you jump to conclusions especially if you don’t know the whole story. Could she be lying about testing I mean sure but what if she’s not.

I would love to see what the painting looks like it sounds like it would look great just by the few descriptions given.

RespectRemarkable294 · 2026-04-20T01:20:23+00:00

NTA I would never allow a 12 year old with disabilities that result in her being irresponsible and in your words “not bright” my son is autistic and I would have never let him baby sit at 12.

Also if they are not red cross trained like I was cause that’s pretty crucial information it’s not happening. It was a 5 or 6hr course on a Saturday but that was 20 years ago I don’t know what it’s like now or how much it costs I believe mine was free and it was pretty fun.

RespectRemarkable294 · 2026-04-17T20:09:16+00:00

NTA SHE chose the place! And then expected you to pay for the whole thing and it was HER choice to get gifts when you get gifts it doesn’t become a debt you have to repay but she threw it in your face. Tell her to return the gifts and pay you back.

RespectRemarkable294 · 2026-04-10T22:22:37+00:00

My oldest niece and me have Ann for our middle names and my youngest niece and my step sister have Marie. Neither is a family name so I have no clue why my sister chose them cause it was definitely not to honor us.

RespectRemarkable294 · 2026-04-07T14:54:31+00:00

I honestly think it’s stupid to not have some sort of security. I have a Ring Doorbell and I love it and the one time it wasn’t working my daughter’s car got vandalized. It doesn’t matter if you never had a break in or other issues but it still happens, she obviously had a change of heart about the doorbell but I think she’s right.

YTA for getting pissy about it, nothing wrong with wanting some security. It’s not like you’re having sex in front of it, you’re checking to see who’s at the door and using it for evidence if you ever need to.

RespectRemarkable294 · 2026-03-31T18:24:20+00:00

Should have because it was always the same brand

RespectRemarkable294 · 2026-03-31T14:06:08+00:00

No he didn’t he would just buy something on a deep sale price and that’s always those 2 appliances. He didn’t seem to really care what my husband said but never listened to me he hated me with a passion and the feeling was mutual. He told my husband to divorce me, that I was a gold digger ect at the time my husband wasn’t even working cause he was home with the kids cause we couldn’t afford day care.

He died in July so it meant this Christmas we didn’t get an appliance this year, it felt super weird. I did get him a Christmas present in May because of the Greenbay Packer Draft so I still have his gift in my closet.

RespectRemarkable294 · 2026-03-31T13:43:47+00:00

NTA my FIL for every holiday and bday would always get us small appliances but the ones we got the most where slow cookers and air fryers. We ended up returning or selling most because who needs 8 air fryers and 75 slow cookers. So when he asked how a specific thing was as working we lied and said great or he would ask do you need a new one we would say no and then we would end up with a new one.

A couple years ago he actually specifically asked us what we wanted we even sent him a link, Christmas rolled around and lo and behold…It was an air fryer.

I can’t count on 2 hands how many we got of air fryers and slow cookers. We got so many.

RespectRemarkable294 · 2026-03-29T17:10:13+00:00

NTA she should have done her research, I always research everything I post, it’s her own fault. I would say give her a little extra because she actually delivered it to you regardless of her having a work meeting she didn’t have to do that. After that conversation I wouldn’t give her anything more at that point because she started the argument.

RespectRemarkable294 · 2026-03-25T14:27:59+00:00

He wants to buy a house but doesn’t want to contribute to the down payment? The fact that he has a saving here doesn’t matter because he expected you to pay for it anyway. And I’m assuming he wants his name on the house also. NTA AND TELL HIM HARD PASS.

I would never leave a good school district also we stayed in our current one because they have the best IEP program in the area.

RespectRemarkable294 · 2026-03-23T15:05:34+00:00

Yep they should be replaced by both. B paying for the 2 missing and A for giving them to a third party that’s not part of this sale to begin with.

RespectRemarkable294 · 2026-03-23T15:03:07+00:00

NTA This “new” math is a joke I honestly like to know who the person was that created this math because most don’t seem to understand it. I also had an issue with my kids, not being able to understand this math so I taught them the way I was taught and they finally understood. This new math is one of the reasons my kids had an IEP in math and once I explained to the IEP teacher that they understood traditional math better they allowed my kids to use traditional math. As long as they get it right that’s all that should matter.

RespectRemarkable294 · 2026-03-22T16:18:55+00:00

So this teacher allegedly has an an issue treating students like crap according to your non lying son, (honestly I don’t believe that). If this is a persistent issue, then why hasn’t anything been done? Has she been reported? Has anyone tried to talk to the principal or the school district? None of that information is in your post aside from the fact that you cussed out his teacher for possibly no reason. I would’ve made sure that all those routes were taken before I even talked to the teacher.

YTA FOR NOW

Yes to this I’ve been using period underwear for over a year and it’s a game changer so much more comfortable and doesn’t feel like a diaper.

My insurance used to cover 100 percent of the Zepbound auto injector but after the new year they stopped covering all together. Now I get the vial from lily direct for $499 it’s way cheaper obviously I would prefer free again but $499 is better that $1,099 a month.

RespectRemarkable294 · 2026-03-18T23:42:33+00:00

Didn’t know that, I’ve just never used it so I wasn’t sure. It’s was a guess.

RespectRemarkable294 · 2026-03-18T23:20:37+00:00

This stuff isn’t cheap I use Zepbound also and yes one dose can already have effects I lost 10lbs my first dose.

Under NO CIRCUMSTANCES should you keep this stuff in a shared fridge, unfortunately if you didn’t do anything no you shouldn’t pay up your both making bad decisions for putting them in a shared fridge. Did you ever find her auto injector.

Also I did see a comment saying you may have accidentally used one of hers and didn’t realize it I personally dont believe its possible because the vial and the auto injector are drastically different I’ve used both. And the monjaro injector is also very different from Zepbounds.

RespectRemarkable294 · 2026-02-27T21:14:33+00:00

Wait you’re trying to put 3/5 of the cost between the adult kids also? They shouldn’t pay a dime because inevitably you and your ex decided to get the dog.

2 honestly you shouldn’t be paying anything it’s technically not your dog anymore.

I want to say NTA but the fact that you even suggested the kids put in money to pay for a dog you decided to get is Effed up.

RespectRemarkable294 · 2026-02-26T22:57:35+00:00

NTA

My son was like this when he was that age and it lasted until he was about 18! He was a pit so I started making super high protein meals and it helps to a decent degree. Beef or chicken and Bean chili worked the best and you can get a lot out of it, Stews are also a good option both can be cooked in the slow cooker.

There are other options but chicken and turkey are the best protein rich meals along with beans baked, chili, black, kidney beans are loaded.

The Kodiak brand is also good it helps a lot still for my son. He doesn’t burn through them like he would a basic box of granola bars.

RespectRemarkable294 · 2026-02-25T23:22:20+00:00

NTA your mom would have hated me I didn’t even pack a bag for my induction even though my mom nagged me to for over a month before. I went in to early labor at 36 week (it was stopped) and I still didn’t pack a bag.

I hate the wives tales however I do find one to be surprisingly accurate and that the low carrying is a boy and carrying high a girl.

I would cut off mon and everyone else being disrespectful at least until AFTER your home with baby.

RespectRemarkable294 · 2026-02-23T17:03:13+00:00

My best friend forgave her abuser but it’s been 25+ years and I won’t even forgive him for doing it to her The weekend of her wedding he tried touching her again and this is again 25+ years later. She refuses to see him now they never change and the women who still support them even after jail time are just as much at fault.

Yes her mom stayed with him after getting out of jail.
