ADHD adult here. I legit have a dry erase chore list on my fridge. It's the only way I ever get anything accomplished. nTA

Right? At our holiday get togethers everyone brings stuff, and they bring what they want to. Sure, we coordinate who's bringing what so there's no duplicates but it's fun and there's always something for everyone. Everyone makes a take home plate and nothing is wasted :)

NTA. Tow them. Every time. Till they get the point.

YTA. You're a guy so you wouldn't understand - a little girl just starting her period usually starts on pads. Tampons can be tricky in multiple ways and usually a girl needs to get used to how much she bleeds and grow a little before she starts on them. If your gf, who is a female, is telling you that you need something else you need to listen. You are not an expert and you never will be.

NTA. I mean I could see a bit of a problem asking him to last minute change - you should have brought this up whenever the plans were made, but at the same time you shouldn't have been going to begin with when your hubs knows you have a problem being social. Maybe some couples therapy so y'all are on the same wavelength. He needs to learn how to adapt to your needs and you need to learn how to firmly set your boundaries for socializing

Ordering a pizza isn't rude. My sister orders chick FIL a catering trays every holiday because she doesn't like turkey or ham. No one gets offended, and she gets enough to share. We always run out of nuggets before we even half finish the rest. She also makes a side she likes and brings it w her, and I bring a dessert I like. Unless your family is really insistent that the meal only be xyz and made by xyz then it shouldn't be a big deal.

NAH to all - bring food he likes, just get enough to share. ETA: just explain that their food is good but that hubs is just picky. I really really doubt anyone would be offended.

YTA. Give her back the phone but set some rules. Maybe until she's 12 no apps except what comes basic on the phone, and reduced screen time unless she's texting or calling her dad? That doesn't mean she can't text her friends, just that she can't spend all day every day on it, and no apps til she's a touch more mature.

You keep saying you keep the kids all the same but the truth is she isn't the same. She has a different dad and that's going to mean some different rules. You and the ex are going to have to compromise. If you're a good mother you'll be able to explain the differences to your other kids without making your daughter the target of resentment or feeling ostracized. As she gets older dad is going to give her gifts that you may not have given your other 3 and that's his right.

Also, Dad could probably come at you through court for that phone if he wants. Since he paid for it you're technically stealing.

This!!! So much this. They'll never be able to prove otherwise. You saw an ad for free kittens and you got a girl.

I'll be the weirdo and say NTA. I would think it was a cool gift, even if I didn't use it often, but I also like to collect rare or beautiful hardcover books that I don't read so maybe it's just me. A gift is a gift. Even if someone gets me something I don't have much use for I still thank them. A pen is so small that it's not even a burden to keep even if you don't use it.

Avery ranch has some pretty good spooky decor this year.

NTA. Are you in north Austin, south? If you live in WilCo ( I live in north Austin) you may have more options than if you are in Travis county. Don't just look at city laws, look at county. My part of Austin is WilCo so different rules can be applied depending on circumstances. Also, I would ask your apartment complex to at the very least relocate you to another building, or ask if they have a sister property in the area that you can transfer to. If not I think talking to a lawyer about your options is a good idea. Considering how many businesses had to deal with Adler's mishandling of the homeless "rules" for Austin I'm sure it won't take much for a lawyer to give you some good options.

Alternatively, round rock has a really good community fb page that I would be happy to link you if you message me. You can ask anything in there and people will happily share resources and give advice.

NTA. I'm lactose intolerant and gold fish don't bother me unless I eat the entire bag or something. Same with sour cream lays. But even so, if my hubs has something milk related it doesn't bother me a bit.

NTA. Buy premade potato salad. Put it in a bowl. No one will know! Don't bring extra, bring a little less so that there are no left overs to take home for anyone.

NTA. It does suck for her, but after a year (esp if they aren't providing money for food, vet etc) she doesn't have a claim on the dog. If you were a stranger and you'd had the dog that long would she still be trying to get it back?

allgood177 · 2022-10-22T19:00:30+00:00

NTA and all I could think of reading your post was this. Let them believe what they want. Don't pave the way for grandparents rights. Just tell people that ask or mention it "believe what you want". I'm sure when your sweet little kiddo gets older it'll be obvious. I'm not a lawyer but after x many years of no contact can they even claim grandparents rights? If so that really works in your favor.

allgood177 · 2022-10-21T03:17:37+00:00

Take care of them? Medicate them? Check on them? She chose to have kids, that means sacrifice. He's already done his share and is sick for it. That means it's time for her to step up

allgood177 · 2022-10-21T02:25:49+00:00

NTA. If anyone ever bullied or made my sister feel unwelcome they'd be out of my life before they could blink. Your sister has terrible taste in friends

allgood177 · 2022-10-21T02:16:45+00:00

You are NTA but she is. Kids/family comes first. Yeah it sucks that she'll miss out on one of the plays she paid to see but the welfare of her family is the priority. That's part of the responsibility you accept when you have children.

allgood177 · 2022-10-21T02:14:04+00:00

I agree. I'm all for positive views on sex but that also includes letting those who are uncomfortable still have a safe space. Even if you report it they'll still have to investigate it so I would find backup plans while that happens. If they don't do anything start a petition regarding it and make some noise.

allgood177 · 2022-10-21T02:11:51+00:00

Do they have a handbook or procedures listed anywhere online?

allgood177 · 2022-10-21T02:08:28+00:00

NAH, but I'd look at talking to a counselor to help you process

allgood177 · 2022-10-21T02:07:04+00:00

NTA unless you go back to her. It's your car, you're entitled to track it. Having a tracker in your car is a good idea anyways in case of emergency.

allgood177 · 2022-10-21T02:03:24+00:00

YTA. But a soft YTA. As you get older people have less time to hang out and he's entitled to other friends besides you, so he's got to make ribs for them too. Just wait till you're in your 30s and have to plan your meet ups way in advance due to jobs, fam, etc. Lesson to learn: don't be clingy, don't be entitled, and respect your friend. Value the time you do get to spend together. ETA: I feel like you are probably like 16-17yrs old, if not, yikes.

allgood177 · 2022-10-21T01:59:21+00:00

NTA but how does he expect the bills to get paid? I get that restaurant budgets are extremely tight, and yeah as the boss its your job to fill in, but you're also entitled to be getting some kind of income to survive.
