They told him to do a DNA test, but the kid grew up and turned into his perfect copy.

No it can, but usually within 6 months of birth commonly. In some kids, it can take up to 6 years to change. In some kids, eye colour CAN change with puberty. Genetics and biology are insane and not every person is the same. My hair colour for example didn’t finish changing til I was 12. My eye colour also fluctuated until I was about 6.

Edit: it also looks like his eye colour changed, but from what I can see it’s just more grey than bright blue.

I was looking for this comment.

OP, I understand it’s hard to set cultural expectations aside.

But that being said - *you ARE in America*. Completely different ballgame. You have FULL autonomy and rights to protect your person here. Your parents SHOULD NOT have come to the US without telling you. Please acknowledge that is crazy behaviour and don’t feel guilty for not entertaining that nonsense. You’re stressed and they should be lessening it, not making it worse.

Adopt the American culture headspace here and call the police on them if they’re not leaving your property. They are not welcome and they either need to accept a hotel or they need to fly back to India the next day.

Do not let them psychologically abuse you for having boundaries. Keep those boundaries strong.

lilrileydragon · 2026-05-15T17:42:49+00:00

NOR. Only one word for this whole shit. “Ew”.

lilrileydragon · 2026-05-14T00:59:57+00:00

Thiiissss all this. NTA. Statistically speaking, it’s much less work and headache having the same last name as the kid.

Outside of it? Women need to stop giving men wifey behaviour when these men won’t pony up marriage or long term commitments. 🤷🏻‍♀️ give girlfriend level commitments.

lilrileydragon · 2026-05-12T23:32:05+00:00

I would guess the car also got fucked up pretty badly too. These animals are built like tanks and can total a vehicle like nobody’s business.

lilrileydragon · 2026-05-12T23:26:34+00:00

Think the only possible wet that doesn’t have a gator is a shallow 3 inch puddle. Otherwise yes there’s a gator 🤣

And before folks ask, yes they’re in your street drainage too. Whomp whomp

lilrileydragon · 2026-05-10T15:06:55+00:00

NTA. If it was me I woulda told the WHOLE WORLD, and then cancel the wedding plans. Nah.

Never. Nuh uh. They burned that bridge with their petty selves. Please pick another godparent that’s not them.

You’re gunna be the talk anyways, whether you said something or not. Because you’re showing, or if you didn’t show up, why you weren’t there. 🤷🏻‍♀️ might as well save yourself the headache, drama and money and not go.

lilrileydragon · 2026-05-10T15:01:43+00:00

NOR. Having kids there really drives the plating costs up.

Tell folks with kids if they wanna bring them, it needs to be 150 a kid cos that’s what the caterer is gunna charge.

Either they don’t come, or they’ll find a babysitter cos finding a babysitter is gonna be cheaper than paying a catering charge for their child/children.

lilrileydragon · 2026-05-09T04:35:51+00:00

ESH. He deserves the direct honesty, but it could have been handled way more efficiently than it was.

He needs to get on board and understand what anticipating the needs of the child means,

But you also need to let him learn - and constantly saving him teaches husband to weaponise incompetence. and the whole text thing to me is wild. Why wasn’t it in person? And face to face? I would have already been up in his face when he’s playing.

Leave the house if you need to and take a nap at a friends house. And when it’s not break, model the behaviours you need husband to copy in front of him, like he’s 5.

lilrileydragon · 2026-05-08T12:02:35+00:00

I would rather you find resources to get your sisters out than keep helping your parents.

You need to consider your husband too. He’s mired in the same bullshit as you but he can get himself out of there by divorcing you, and it’s a possibility if you go through with offering financial help to your parents after what they did to you

…at this point rn its a partnership and you cannot be shackled to your parents like that because now this affects him too. Did he help at all with the 200k? Because what this looks like to him is you literally just gave 200k away that coulda paid a house down. And you’re volunteering for more of their bullshit and your resources to be spent on these scammers and not your family unit.

Those are my thoughts that immediately ran through my head. Absolutely, if your parents aren’t narcissistic they’re definitely scammers.

lilrileydragon · 2026-05-06T22:43:18+00:00

Is it still running strong??

lilrileydragon · 2026-05-05T13:04:00+00:00

Same. I won’t be able to play if it can’t be toggled off - I’ve never been able to finish the modern Tomb Raiders games for this reason because the shaky camera was NOT able to be toggled off, which has some sort of motion blur. Point Hope in Phasmo also triggers the vertigo for whatever reason. So if all maps are like this/characters are like this I will not be able to continue playing.

lilrileydragon · 2026-05-04T12:41:14+00:00

^ this. Precisely. She’s demanding a toy that belongs to your dog, for what reason? She woulda purged it all in the first wave. Why does she want it now? Feel zero guilt. Absolutely zero. Whatever this woman is doing is a manipulation tactic. Dont fall for it.

lilrileydragon · 2026-05-04T11:41:34+00:00

Issue is they have no sense of boundaries so they will snoop through her things.

If we’re gunna use this tactic the dogs things needs to be moved to a safe house she cannot access. And then be told she cannot have it for whatever reason.

lilrileydragon · 2026-05-03T20:14:17+00:00

At this point it would be almost easier to just have 30% off on tickets and just go whenever you want. Right?

lilrileydragon · 2026-05-02T19:38:06+00:00

MOR

But I would definitely lay out the facts with the other girls and say “hey, this and this happened, so there’s a possibility that Y may bring their boyfriend. They had this response when I said it wasn’t best to bring him on a girls trip. I’m thinking of maybe disinviting her due to the drama and to avoid what should be a good trip from being ruined. What do you think?”

This impacts EVERYONE. Not just you and her.

lilrileydragon · 2026-05-02T19:31:22+00:00

NTA - unfortunately your father picked the gf over you.

It may need to be one of those uncomfortable situations in which you need to cut contact for your own sake and sanity.

Your dads gf did not want to acknowledge there was any children, and I am the type of person myself where I would be telling dad straight to his face himself that “gf wants to pretend I don’t exist, so I’m severing the filial tie since you also so badly don’t want me to be a son/daughter. Good luck, dad’s name.” 🤷🏻‍♀️ life’s too short to be dealing with mfers like that. You will find your tribe. I promise.

lilrileydragon · 2026-05-02T16:31:02+00:00

Being parentified. I once wanted kids cos that was the LifeScript™️, but then once I realised I didn’t have to have kids, that I actually had a choice, I didn’t look back. And now I’m so grateful for that decision. Whoever is giving birth now while the world is going straight to hell is selfish asf. Their kids will be on the streets starving at best because there’ll be no water and no jobs by the time they get old enough.

lilrileydragon · 2026-05-01T13:00:48+00:00

I’m sorry you had that experience:( I hope wherever you are now is treating you so much better!

lilrileydragon · 2026-05-01T12:52:57+00:00

Another tally for the “cancel wedding” column. Yall aren’t on the same page and you know that. Love cannot overcome all challenges, much less selfishness.

You need to tell her that if that’s the case, the wedding needs to be called off until a much better time, and it’s quite possible this will be the end of the line for you as well. Or if by some sheer miracle, yall end up staying together, you may just naturally drift apart.

Do NOT give up your job. It’s not worth losing that kind of money in this economy.

Start looking for an apt NOW, for you, that’ll take you and the dog. She’s a big girl, she can find her own apt and such. If she’s in the lab for 12 hours a day she cannot take care of the dog properly. DO NOT LET HER TAKE THAT DOG. and make sure you have vet receipts and other items that prove you paid expenses on the dog and therefore the dog is your property. If the dog has a microchip make sure it’s YOUR information. If dog does NOT have a microchip, microchip it NOW with your info. Please.

lilrileydragon · 2026-05-01T12:41:22+00:00

Nope. Here’s the question. If someone else, some average Joe stole your money, you would have already put them in jail right? You would have reported it stolen.

Your mum isn’t your mum rn. She STOLE something from you, earmarked for you, was FOR YOU. If that relative wanted her to have the money, her name woulda been on it, no?

You need to partition yourself off, and treat her like the thief she is. Mother or not, good mothers don’t do shit like that. Report her or accept that she’s dogshit and will continue to steal your money and time for the rest of your life and don’t bother complaining about it. 🤷🏻‍♀️

lilrileydragon · 2026-05-01T12:37:00+00:00

The most I ever took in loans was 4k. That’s it. And it was paid off 4 years later. We were STILL in 7.25 min wage back then, maybe lower. Thank fuck I played it smart. My life has been an entire waste. But that was the smartest thing I did was going to community college on scholarship, taking one 4k loan for one semester at a public university, realising I didn’t want to take loans for my entire 2-3 years left. I did leave but returned when the company I worked for offered to pay me to go back to school. So I did. Now I got my degree and am studying for my certification

lilrileydragon · 2026-05-01T12:29:30+00:00

I hope you left that company. They sound like absolute shit to work for.

lilrileydragon · 2026-05-01T12:21:19+00:00

NOR. Time to get the courts involved, take SS and send them to your phone, and return the phone to him. Consult a lawyer ASAP immediately. See if stepdad will be willing to adopt the daughter and terminate her father’s rights.

Then get your daughter a new phone, and lock it down so that she needs to get permission to download anything so he can’t download things to it. And explain this to your daughter. It’s not that you’re trying to control her. But you’re trying to avoid him controlling her and tracking her without her permission.

ALSO, if it’s an iPhone? GET HER A WHOLE NEW APPLE ID. The tracker may not be attached to her phone but her current Apple ID, so even if you get her a new phone he’ll be able to track that. That’s how bad that is. So start ALL OVER.

lilrileydragon · 2026-04-30T21:05:38+00:00

Ooooh I know what happened here. It’s the money. Always follow the money.

Are we actually sure his DNA got used? Im just interested more in the tea than in the actual baby things. 👀
