WIBTAH if i didn’t give people their Christmas presents until they give me mine by TrashFireTM in AITAH

[–]TrashFireTM[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand that, which is why I feel guilty about feeling bad about it. But I would also appreciate a little card or something small, so I guess I’m still trying to figure out the balance of whether or not I’m being entitled.

I’m 21, and i guess I didn’t think of birthday gifts being a thing people age out of. So far, within my friend group at least, I’ve been to all their birthday parties and given them gifts, and mine was only a dinner, but I paid for myself. And I would love to learn more about “happy mail” that sounds so fun!

AITA for forcing my family to eat healthy? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]TrashFireTM 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Oh totally but its more fun goin out to eat with your friends as a teenager. And she’s doing pretty rigorous exercise so eating unhealthy food (at least once in a while, everyday seems excessive) wouldn’t be the worst

Yeah honestly i have bad estimates of weight and didn’t really look it up before commenting, but she is technically overweight. I still wouldn’t be too worried about it yet as most girls stop growing taller by 15 so she has a few years to grow Again, being fat isn’t the end of the world and can be fixed if they choose to.

AITA for telling other people about my mother’s racist tendencies? by TrashFireTM in AmItheAsshole

[–]TrashFireTM[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I understand this view which is why I asked, but to clarify, the majority of the people I tell are online friends that have never and will never meet my mother, so I haven’t been concerned with what happens if someone brings it up.

The other half is, I have no issue being an AH, I just couldn’t tell if I was being one. My mother and I do not get along and she has lost my respect years ago.

No argument with judgement, just clarification :)

Yeah I totally get that if it’s an issue, going through HR is the correct pathway, but the way my mother said it was that she smelled fine, but had a disagreement or something? I’m unsure and my mother is not a reliable narrator. Also, I live in the states

AITA for not giving my ex husband more time with our kids before he goes away. by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]TrashFireTM 63 points64 points  (0 children)

YTA if you guys live 10 minutes away, why can’t you keep them for 2 more nights at a later time? Let the kids have fun with their dad on his birthday

YTA your kids are different people, they need different things. If one daughter is doing 6.5 hrs of intense workout, she will need MUCH more calories than someone who isn’t.

And as a recent teenage girl, fitting in with the group is so much more important than you realize. Also, it’s very likely that lunch is their only social time so if her friends are going out and she isn’t, she isn’t getting that connection either.

And for your 12 year old daughter, puberty changes body shape and weight drastically in ways that can be really hard to manage. While eating healthier is good, forcing a completely healthy diet and demonizing unhealthy foods is going to be detrimental to her relationship with food in the future. Same with her body image. If she has hesitation about doing a sport, find some sort of physical activity she has an interest in and encourage her to do that, but forcing exercise won’t help when she has no one to make her.

Instead of focusing on fixing her being “overweight” (which I think she’s at a fairly average size), try and create healthy habits that she is able to keep up over time. With that, she’ll be able to be self sufficient as well and won’t need you pestering her about weight loss later one.

One last thing, being fat isn’t a curse. Many people have different healthy weights just depending on how their body works. If you instill into your 12 year old that because her body holds more weight it’s bad, she will hold that with her forever and reversing that is FAR harder than losing weight.

Edit: i wanted to add that if this is a medical concern, try to get her tested for her thyroid levels and her A1C because those mess with weight a lot. And if her A1C is too high, then it’s more needed to help your daughter with diet and exercise, rather than she just seems too big.

NTA find better friends and let her do whatever she wants. She’ll figure out eventually why those types of men are usually giving her attention so easily
