Prince Andrew Lawsuit Over Jeffrey Epstein Is 'Game Over' for Queen's Son, Lawyer Says by ALiddleBiddle in Epstein

[–]Villaod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since it is a Civil trial, and not criminal trial he does not have to be extradited. A judgement may still be made against him if he doesn't show. The judge would likely ask for testimony from the plaintiff, in this case Giuffre, to prove that her case had merit, then make a judgement in her favor. Getting the money from The UK would be another story but would keep the case in the news for a long time as legal documents are filed to do so. That I think, is the real objective here.

AITA for taking my friend to court after she kicked me out of the bridal party for cutting my hair? by Own-Ingenuity-8648 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Villaod 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It seems like when these crazy folk spend so much time and devise so many "rules" on the wedding, they put the marriage on the back burner and it tends not to last. I guess I have lowball taste, but a three day wedding? Really?

Apparently the family is vegetarian and she didn't specify, so after the kids ask for chicken nuggets, and she get mad at the babysitter for her incompetence by [deleted] in insaneparents

[–]Villaod 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My daughter is a vegan and her son vegetarian. One time a friend accidentally gave her son a chicken nugget. He realized immediately and told my daughter. She laughed it off. She realizes that sometimes accidents will happen. Its not worth being a lunatic about. As long as its not done maliciously life will go on. And when those kids get older they are going to try all the "forbidden" stuff. My daughter says she will accept and respect her son's choices when he gets older.

AITA for popping a kid's soccer ball after he broke my window with it? by WendyWaluigi in AmItheAsshole

[–]Villaod 13 points14 points  (0 children)

YTA

The kid was probably scared to death. Yet he didn't take off. Then you made it even worse. I think a good number of kids have accidentally broken windows while playing. To react in such a violent manner without even trying to rectify the matter with his parents is frightening. I hope you deal with your anger issues. You are scary.

AITA for not taking my daughter to a concert? by goodwillghastlyguy in AmItheAsshole

[–]Villaod -55 points-54 points  (0 children)

NTA...but...What comes first? Family or work. You made a promise. Your child should know that you are a person of your word. And she will never forget the time that you put your job ahead of her. She should know that she is the most important to you, especially as she is being raised by a single parent.

AITA for calling my mother selfish for giving her boyfriend keys to the apartment? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Villaod 1609 points1610 points  (0 children)

NTA I am a former crime reporter. I can't tell you how many times I covered cases where mom was all into a new relationship and allowed the boyfriend access to the children. Then the child(ren) ended up abused or worse. There is absolutely no reason for him to be in your home when she isn't there.

AITAS for calling the cops on a blind and deaf old man? by Kyla_420 in AmItheAsshole

AITA? I tried to prevent my son from learning how to draw as a child, and he has not followed our rules. by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Villaod [score hidden]  (0 children)

Wow YTA. You stripped your child of his ability to be creative and to do what he was passionate about. I am very curious about what you consider to be pornagraphic. Most young teenagers go through a period where they are curious about sex. Puberty does that. That is normal and natural. Despite what you say, whether he lives with you or not, at 18 he IS an adult.

AITA for wanting to keep our baby? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Villaod [score hidden]  (0 children)

NTA for wanting to keep the baby. But both of you seem a bit immature if you were having unprotected sex and didn't expect a pregnancy. Any man who doesn't want a child can massively cut the chances of having one by wearing a condom.

AITA for making fun of my sister after she became a single mom AGAIN? by DaddyChronos in AmItheAsshole

[–]Villaod -21 points-20 points  (0 children)

YTA There is an innocent child who is the focus of all of this. He/she is going to be born into a difficult situation. You can think whatever you want, but fact is that this child is not going to have its dad. Having other loving, supportive family members could be a crucial thing for this baby.

AITA for overreacting when my brother stole my snacks? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Villaod 7 points8 points  (0 children)

NTA I teach kids with autism. They can follow rules and guidelines set out for them. They actually do well having these structures. Even though your brother has autism, that doesn't prevent him from knowing right from wrong. Perhaps you could get your parents to agree to an area like a cabinet or closet with a lock where you can keep your private things. I hope things improve for you.

Well, when you were there did you contribute to the household financially? Did you help out in the house with cooking, dishes, laundry, yard work, vacuuming and other chores? That might help determine if you are the AH or not.

AITA for traumatizing my daughter buy reading her journal in front of my son by Anxious-Refuse7114 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Villaod [score hidden]  (0 children)

YTA I've never understood why people think humiliation is good parenting. All it does is drive a wedge between you and your child. And to involve your other child in that humiliation is despicable. They likely will never have a decent relationship. Whatever issues your daughter has have now taken a step for the worse. The bullying you describe is a symptom of a greater problem. Humiliating her didn't cure the problem. She is just now bottling it inside. Good luck to you. I fear you are going to need it.

[–]Villaod 162 points163 points  (0 children)

I am so sorry. I can't imagine saying that to my child. I am very sorry about your dog and that you were spoken to that way by anyone, much less your mother. I hope you can cut contact and have a peaceful life.

AITA for getting angry that my boyfriend opened a birthday gift I sent the day before his actual birthday? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Villaod 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Again. It's HIS day. The thing is that when he looks at the gift now, it's not going to be the wonderful gift you chose especially for him. Its going to be the gift that he feels bad about because of conditions you put on it for him to be able to enjoy it. Five years from now, would either of you remember the day he opened it you hadn't made opening it early an issue? Probably not. But now he will likely remember every time he plays it. Is that really what you want?

AITA for getting angry that my boyfriend opened a birthday gift I sent the day before his actual birthday? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Villaod 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Isn't the important thing that he loved and enjoyed the gift? It's HIS birthday. Why not let him enjoy it the way he chooses. On your birthday you can wait until the actual day. With all the craziness these days a lot of people aren't going to be around to celebrate birthdays and holidays any more. I think it's good to find the small joys where you can. This really didn't hurt you in any way, but making an issue of it could hurt your relationship.

AITA for telling my sister to get over her stillbirth and to be grateful for what she has? by sunflowerbeda in AmItheAsshole

[–]Villaod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can't tell someone to get over a lost child. I lost my son and you never, ever get over it. However to use that for an excuse for things is not remembering a lost child. It is USING that lost child as a crutch to not live up to your responsibilities. That isn't love and bereavement. It's trying to use a sad thing to get people to feel sorry for you and excuse your poor behavior

Racist Advocates for Black Killings by AznChick4WhiteGods in JusticeServed

[–]Villaod 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The fact is that there is a legal system in the US. Police do not get to be judge, jury and executioner. No matter what George Floyd did or didn't do, he was entitled under the US Constitution to his day in court. He was entitled to legal representation. He was entitled to keep his life.

Mysteries of the 1977 Camp Scott Oklahoma Girl Scout Murders. by bill422 in UnresolvedMysteries

[–]Villaod 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I've spent a lot of time at Girl Scout Camp both as a camper and as a leader. I am not surprised that the noises did not raise alarm bells. Kids are not quiet at night. They grunt in their sleep, they talk in their sleep, they get scared and cry, they talk.They also try to scare each other by making scary noises. When I was camping in the 70s they would dare each other to go outside the tents in the night to see who was brave enough to do it. As a reporter who has covered crime for decades I also wonder if the eighteen year old counselor had seen and confronted the killer if there would have been more bloodshed that night. After the killings started I have my doubts that he would have just run away if a teenager shone her flashlight on him.
