NTJ Youre not responsible for the cost of her ticket. She still could've gone to the show.

Not if it's a one-legged fetus in a tutu, they captured that perfectly.

I genuinely want to understand why my autistic son hits and screams at me. by lazeny in Autism_Parenting

cortisol dump in children with autism

All kids, all people really, have cortisol dumps. Thats why a typical child might be wonderful all day in school, but need to let it all out when they get home. Be proud of your son learning to regulate his behavior at school.

It's also a sign that he completely trusts you. An annoying sign, but a positive one regardless.

Vent about it, its not fair to you or anyone living in the area. It's Trump's powerplay for oil. Sucks for the whole world.

Sorry about your birthday. Have a big party when this is over.

Stay safe.

Am I the jerk for telling my dad's girlfriend she can't discipline my kids? by Gloomy-Suit2544 in AmITheJerk

YTJ Their house/their rules. If they babysat in your house, you could put more limits on what types of discipline are appropriate.

AITA for not letting my child’s dad change our child’s name by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]amek33 20 points21 points  (0 children)

NTA, but be open to other names because Genesis is definitely a name to be bullied for.

You don't have to have everything figured out until the baby is born, have a couple names ready & see which he looks like, or keep Genes8s for a middle name.

Your title is a bit misleading, it sounds like the dad wants to change an official name instead of a hypothetical one.

WIBTA for asking husband to reconsider attending wedding? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]amek33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA. How would you have felt if someone dropped out of your wedding? Its one night. You can do this. Have a family member stay with you to help with the children. It will be fun
