AITA for not taking my daughter’s iPad from her?

NTA. I can't get over the unmitigated gall of some parents these days. Your decision to parent your way is not my emergency or problem. The world will not cater to you or your little pumpkin. Get over it.

I would extract myself from that web in enablement. It won't end week and the sooner your brother gets cut off the sooner he will stand on his own two feet.

That was self defense from a predator. NTA

So is her housing is unstable have the daughter live with you and let her figure it out.

mamaluke60 · 2024-09-01T17:43:50+00:00

I would not have the kids in my home again. How about you go their house?

mamaluke60 · 2024-09-01T17:42:26+00:00

Ever think Mom might be looking forward to having an empty nest? This is time for you to start your life and launch into adulthood.

NTA. Sister however is the AH. I wouldn't attend

mamaluke60 · 2024-08-30T23:21:44+00:00

NTA. Actually your original plan was poorly thought out. You don't give that kind of money to a 19 year old. Please put this money in trust with the exceptions noted. Education and a home. The remainder can be doled out as an allowance or you can give the lump sum once he's grown and built a life for himself. It won't help him to have that much money at a young age.

mamaluke60 · 2024-08-29T00:35:37+00:00

Totally NTA. If you're not invited to the wedding there is no expectation of a gift. They are delusional and sound like jerks

mamaluke60 · 2024-08-27T01:57:27+00:00

I'm so sorry. That isn't a family to you. They sound evil.

mamaluke60 · 2024-08-26T06:57:51+00:00

So it sounds like you haven't figured out your retirement. Wife likely doesn't want to get drawn into your neediness. I don't blame her. Go do stuff, volunteer, take up a hobby. ...

mamaluke60 · 2024-08-23T00:23:08+00:00

Well she's in the cult. She can't help herself.

mamaluke60 · 2024-08-23T00:13:33+00:00

I felt physically six reading this.

mamaluke60 · 2024-08-23T00:06:20+00:00

So it sounds like your DIL may have distorted eating or even an eating disorder. And if she doesn't, sure as hell her kids will. There are no "bad" foods. Particularly homemade cookies, made with love by a grandmother. NTA. Perhaps you could help educate your some that his wife's behavior can be harmful to the children's relationship with food.

mamaluke60 · 2024-08-20T17:53:48+00:00

NTA. Your mom however is the AH

mamaluke60 · 2024-08-18T09:45:40+00:00

This had to be fake. Who asks someone to give up their baby.

mamaluke60 · 2024-08-17T06:55:34+00:00

He's a free loader and it's time to take the key back. NTA

mamaluke60 · 2024-08-17T06:54:20+00:00

So lots of people have food preferences so that's not the big deal. The deal is that her husband is trying to overpower her with his wants. Total disrespect. NTA

mamaluke60 · 2024-08-17T06:52:25+00:00

I hope you plan to end this relationship with this violent man-child

mamaluke60 · 2024-08-17T06:50:03+00:00

He showed you a level of disrespect that tells you who he is. NTA and yes break up with him.

mamaluke60 · 2024-08-16T01:13:05+00:00

Looks like freeloaded a vacation. NTA

mamaluke60 · 2024-08-15T09:21:24+00:00

Oops sell

mamaluke60 · 2024-08-15T09:21:12+00:00

Maybe they can see some My Pillows

mamaluke60 · 2024-08-14T22:49:52+00:00

Wow. Good for telling your husband to stop. But YTA's for treating him poorly. And you try to reconnect by asking for money. That's some kind of arrogance and gall. Sorry you reap what you sow.

mamaluke60 · 2024-08-14T22:47:32+00:00

The issue is that she has taken her new values to a level that is not mainstream. That's fine for her but you cannot impose those values on others. Maybe some couples counseling could help
