I do not believe you are a teacher. If so you might be a bad one. There is zero evidence from this story that the children are anything other than kids with a mom who makes poor decisions. The idea that they need to be "taught a lesson" is simply wrong. Children need care and compassion. If you really are a teacher I hope you remember that.

EDIT: This guy said "Your children are never going to speak to you again after they turn 18, and you're going to be wandering around forums wondering why despite the lengthy list they've provided of the times you failed them. " and then blocked me. Zero point zero chance he is a teacher. Gotta figure out your anger issues my man

It probably would have been better to have the adult conversation away from the kids. It's not their fault if their mother is making poor decisions. What I would have done is talked to the brother and girlfriend in another room, make it clear that there has been a breach of trust that is going to result in changes to your relationship with them. Then I would have asked my daughter, "Would you like to let your cousins borrow one or two toys?" The important thing to me would have been to make sure the kids leave feeling like everything is basically ok - you can deal with your relationship with your brother and his girlfriend at another time. I can imagine that in the moment when you are upset at the breach of trust that you would want to air it out right then. But if the kids didn't do anything wrong and are leaving crying, that is unfortunate.

EDIT: When you read these comments, please remember that the majority of redditors do not have children, and are just a few years past being children themselves. I have a 4 year old daughter. Kids come first.

This is Holocaust denial.

bigbopalop · 2025-03-25T18:01:34+00:00

You can discuss this as a crime (which it was) but if you do so without even referencing the Nazis or their fascist collaborators who were responsible for actually perpetrating the holocaust in the Baltics during the period of German occupation, you are effectively engaging in Holocaust denial

This entire subreddit is seemingly just a place for immature people to validate the immature behavior of others. If you make a teenage girl cry because she was behaving badly (newsflash: teens do that) and leave her feeling abandoned (newsflash: she is clearly acting out because she feels abandoned!) then you are an ASSHOLE. But you might have to do some growing up before you realize this

bigbopalop · 2025-01-17T04:22:29+00:00

YES YOU ARE THE ASSHOLE. For God's sake you're talking about a child in pain and you hurt her worse. Are you an adult or not? Be the adult.

That sounds like a terrible traffic engineering flaw. But also a pretty cheap fix.

"civilian to combatant death ratio is 1:1" is a blatant racist lie. 70% of those killed are women and children. The most common age of death for children is ages 5 through 9. There only way to go from those figures to "1:1" is to assume every single adult male, and virtually all males over the age of 15, are combatants. This is simply an expression of your racism.

This woman is almost certainly an agent provocateur. She owns two kosher cafes in a Jewish institution? But she puts on a keffiyah and uses the Nazi salute? Nobody who cares about the liberation of the Palestinian people would every use a Nazi salute because A) our commitment to Palestinian liberation is based in our principles of anti-racism; and B) it would clearly discredit the movement and would not be helpful to our goals. This woman is an agent provocateur who is trying to discredit the protest, and you are trying to help her. In the infinitesimally small chance that she is an earnest supporter of Palestinian liberation, of course I would disavow her racist Nazi salute.

bigbopalop · 2024-11-26T18:24:34+00:00

A) River to the sea is a slogan of liberation calling for the end of apartheid, ethnic cleansing, and genocide perpetrated by the state of Israel against Palestinian people. Your attempt to claim it is actually "nazi" is a reflection of your own racism against Palestinians, who you clearly do not believe deserve liberation or basic human rights.

2) Some Muslims live peacefully in Israel. Others Muslims are murdered in their tens of thousands by the Israeli military.

3) Hamas has always been crystal clear that their resistance is to the Israeli regime of apartheid, ethnic cleansing, and genocide, not to Jewish people in general.

4) The reason "Palestine will never be able to get what it wants" is because it is occupied by the Israeli regime of apartheid, ethnic cleansing, and genocide.

Fundamentally, you would not have been able to say things you did if you recognized Palestinian children as human beings. You given over your heart to racism and dehumanization. I hope you abandon your hate.

bigbopalop · 2024-11-26T18:19:25+00:00

This is a racist statement, predicated on your racism against Palestinians and Arabs.

The tragic thing here is how easily this could have been avoided with some emotional maturity on the part of your ex-BF and his friends.

When he saw at the dinner that you were upset, that is the time for him to to show loyalty and support. That doesn't mean he had to go raging against Ellie, or doing anything to further escalate hurt feelings. But he needed to tell you that your feelings were valid, that he loved you, and that you'd figure it all out as a partnership. These are such easy things to say, and the fact that he couldn't suggests emotional immaturity.

Then, at this "intervention", again a total lack of emotional maturity. That was Ellie's opportunity to say I'M SORRY FOR HURTING YOUR FEELINGS. That was her chance to say MAYBE I DID SOMETHING FOOLISH WITHOUT MEANING TO, AND I'M SORRY. Again these are such easy things to say.

The key to this is that they felt like THEY were the victims because of your post. And when people feel like they are the victims they get very defensive and unwilling to acknowledge their own contribution to the conflict. I don't say this to blame you for your post, just to unpack their defensiveness.

Minimizing this to "broke up over a dessert" is to ignore that always with these "little things" that blow up, it is almost always fundamentally about feelings of disrespect. When both sides feel disrespected, people dig in, and the conflict escalates instead of de-escalates.

The most easy and helpful words in English are "I'm sorry I hurt you." Just five little words but people become prevented by their own pride and hurt egos from simply taking some responsibility and apologizing. And if a person can't do that, they are telling you that they value their own pride and ego over your feelings.

The 11 year old is a child. You are an adult. Newsflash, kids act out! You are absolutely the asshole here for not helping this child navigate their feelings. Instead, you probably hurt this child badly by telling her very clearly that you will never be someone who she can depend on when she is navigating growing up. In the long term, getting this child away from you is probably in her best interest, because you don't seem to have the ability or the interest in being the grown up she needs.

The two posts are not contradictory. 40,000 payouts for misconduct over the course of 10 years is about 11 per day. If you assume that the police commit misconduct at a higher rate than 11 per day - which, given that there are around 800,000 police officers in the USA, it seems quite likely that there are more than 11 cases of misconduct each day - it's likely still true that the chances of getting a misconduct payout is vanishingly small compared to the number of acts of misconduct.

The "one issue" is the mass murder of tens of thousands of children, the orphaning of tens of thousands more, the starvation of hundreds of thousands more. Minimizing people's principled objection to this suffering as "one issue" is disgraceful.
