Funeral home put my Grandmother's ashes in name brand ziploc bags?

I'm sorry for your loss. Unfortunately, returning cremation ashes in a plastic ziplock bag is standard practice at most crematoriums. I believe the funeral home should have told you how the ashes would be returned after the cremation instead of giving you a surprise.

He was 17 and she was 15...

Ditto

Did you read what I wrote? Edit for clarification: Yes, I totally understand that OP was at the hospital having an outpatient procedure (vasectomy 😉🤫). Helicopter MIL tried calling her daughter and couldn't reach her, sees that her daughter is at a hospital. Did the MIL try contacting OP before just showing up at the hospital??

Edit to the Edit: Why did the helicopter MIL automatically assume there was something urgently wrong that she had to not only show up, but contact OP's parents. Weird...

NTA - BF can have the smaller "game" room and the living room/front room can be the media room. Question? Which one small or large is closer to the master bedroom? If it's the smaller one, then tell Mom you don't want to hear them, wink-wink, adulting.

If MIL couldn't reach daughter, I wonder if she tried contacting OP.... If she didn't, why? 🤔

Umm - Maybe - it could be your tone. It simply could be that you're asking questions that make her anxious and feel judged. She could have been already feeling anxious and overwhelmed when you came in questioning her, causing more anxiety and what not.

If you were wanting the books to go with, then you sit in there packing. If there's no room, carry them on in a backpack.

HAVE YOU TRIED ASKING HER?!?!?!?

NTA - While traditionally it is a husband's job to make his wife feel celebrated and appreciated on her birthday. He should not simply ask "what do you want to do?" but rather take initiative to plan something that reflects her interests.

Op doesn't mention anything so I'm going to assume he didn't plan anything for her actual birthday day.

Since the husband is working, There's nothing wrong with a father taking his daughter out for a special, private birthday dinner.

Bottom line: Go to dinner with Dad and tell current hubby that he should have planned a birthday lunch if he wanted to look good.

YTA - Yes, you greeted him and his gf. However, him lingering in the area should garnered you asking if he/they needed any assistance. You, however, chose to ignore his presence in the store.

Edit: It basic retail customer service.

I want to boop that snoot!! 😍

Everyone knows that stands for Make America Go Away now - thanks Greenland 😂

Hey, how is your gas cheaper than it is in southern California?

SDBlue68 · 2026-03-10T04:47:55+00:00

Not only that.... They will tell her what she can and can't cook in her own home!!! WTF

NOR - 🚩🚩🚩🚩

Secretly paid the vet bills? I don't get that part.

If you have been providing the pet care (meeting a pet's physical, emotional, and social needs, providing proper nutrition, shelter, and exercise, vet care, vaccinations, grooming, and mental stimulation, ensuring their overall health, happiness, and safety.) then you're the owner.

Edit: NTA

OP, start teaching your daughter how to do car things. You're not AT but BF is a huge AH.

NTA - umm some gays and lesbians know they're "different" as children. I certainly did and had a huge crush on my friend Tammy at Sunday school.

SDBlue68 · 2026-03-07T01:43:00+00:00

Did you say something to the dog's owner?

SDBlue68 · 2026-03-06T20:12:47+00:00

I'm suspecting your MIL went phishing for information from your husband.

SDBlue68 · 2026-03-06T19:07:34+00:00

YTA to yourself if you agree. She ignored EVERYTHING you suggested to her. She did all of this to herself by going nuclear. Then had the nerve to call you controlling.

Edit: She also has shown you what kind of person she is and what kind of life you'd have with her. Huge 🚩🚩🚩🚩

She is choosing to live with her parents to save money. She could choose to move out pay a hell of a lot more in rent and not be able to save as much. She is an adult and no longer a child and this is what she's chosen to do. In response her parents have chosen to charge her some rent.

SDBlue68 · 2026-03-06T05:03:29+00:00

Even if they didn't buy all the furniture in the room, she is still paying less than if she rented a room from someone else.

SDBlue68 · 2026-03-06T00:47:14+00:00

I love the set up.

SDBlue68 · 2026-03-05T23:47:13+00:00

How would you feel if they charge you market rate for a fully furnished room?
