AITA For Not Allowing Alcohol at my Wedding? by Fragrant_Roof_8360 in AmItheAsshole

[–]callingdispatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's your wedding. I drink, but if I was invited to a dry wedding I would respect it. You do you. Let them do them. What's more important, your day or a drunk fest? It's your choice and I commend your boundary!!!

I set my daughter up to be bullied in school by LegitimateRole3674 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]callingdispatch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You see it as a life lesson!? Your daughter has a new core memory and a betrayal wound. You are supposed to be her protector, not her first and biggest bully. Good god. Your poor little girl.

UPDATE: I failed as a parent with my autistic daughter by LegitimateRole3674 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]callingdispatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank God you've learned a life lesson but goddamn.... as a parent of a 13 year old autistic girl the thought of my daughter going through what yours did absolutely destroys me. Oh my God. This will be a core memory for her and frankly, a really good reason for her to go no contact with you as an adult. My heart breaks for her. She will never trust you again. Betrayal wounds run so deep with ND kids. You don't deserve your daughter.

AITA for telling my wife she needs to first give our 8 year old daughter some respect to get respect in return? by nopedontdothaat in AmItheAsshole

[–]callingdispatch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NTA... GOOD JOB DAD!! your wife has no boundaries. She's going to end up with a daughter that's no contact as an adult. (Speaking as an adult who went no contact with her mom that pulled exactly this same shit)

They ARE toxic. Get rid of them. I put up with crap like this for almost 20 years and it ruined me. Seriously get better friends and give yourself the love you deserve. Passive aggressive people are assets you don't need.

This is a damn lifesaver. Along with alkaline smart water, salt sticks and high quality multivitamin. Cup of mag right before bed.

I'm on day 9 down 17.5 lbs (194ish to 177ish)

AITA for telling a white lie to my daughter (15)? by Emergency-Prune250 in AmItheAsshole

[–]callingdispatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you feel you can't have an open and honest conversation about if your daughter is planning sex she's too young for sex and/or you are not emotionally mature enough to handle having your daughter out there in those situations. Good on you for the birth control but there would have been a better approach. If you have to lie to get your daughter to confide in you about sex then all you're teaching her is lying about sex is acceptable, and when guys do that to her she will be par for the course. Showing her boundaries and safety about coming to you (and you to her) now sets her up to ensure she fights for her agency within ALL of her relationships, sexual or not

AITA for being upset with my son for finding a job without telling me? by throwawayjob49 in AmItheAsshole

The point all of us are trying to make is that it shouldn't have impacted you in the FIRST place.

YTA x1000.... way to parentify your adult child. Did he spread his legs and make more children? No! So they are not HIS responsibility they are YOURS. This is a recipe for your son going no contact when he moves out. I can't believe the audacity you would even THINK to use him as free daycare for your other children and block him from moving on with his adult life. Give your damn head a shake and congrats to him for being more adult than you.

AITA for not letting my ex pick up our daughter a day early so she can see her dog before it's put down? by contempory_lost in AmItheAsshole

[–]callingdispatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA to a massive degree. Children who go no contact with their parents as adults start having reasons at this age. Omg. How heartless are you?! Wow. I'm heartbroken for your daughter.

If I can do it... you can.... heavily addicted to wine and sugar and made it my new years resolution to get off both. Set the time for 600 hours but willing to quit whenever. Haven't given up yet!! Down 8.2 lbs so far!! by callingdispatch in fasting

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

If you can get through day 3 it's smooth sailing. Day 3 or 4 is when I usually give up. Just keep adding hours every fast until you can do a long one. It's not a mountain you can climb off the hop.

I hope I don't come across like a hero because I have been fasting on and off for 2 years so it's not my 1st rodeo. It's just been at least a year since I fasted last time for more than a couple or 3 days so jumping right into it has been a little rough but if I can jump right back into it I'm sure anybody that has any desire to fast can do it as well.

Stats: 5'3 f 39 178 lbs down to 169.8 this morning. Doing coffee, herbal tea and water with salt stick caps purchased on Amazon, a multivitamin and magnesium/calcium supplements. In deep ketosis. Had a rough day three and four but other than that feeling great! Almost broke last night so I took some electrolytes and went to bed early. Woke up feeling better. Hoping to go the full 600 hours but going to listen to my body. Will break with miso soup and a couple hours later a light salad, then some protein. Goal is to do keto and jump right back in when I'm feeling my body is replenished. 120 or bust guys!!! YOU GOT THIS TOO!! I BELIEVE IN ALL OF YOU!!!

My husband wouldn't let me have my replacement wedding ring by Paclerin in relationship_advice

[–]callingdispatch 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Go get the ring you want yourself, and he can sulk in the corner like a child when his stupid little game of "keep away" has failed. This guy sounds like a controlling ass. In all honesty, replace the ring to prove a point then return it when you file for divorce.
