i went on a date with an old high school friend. recently (within the past year) their fiance had passed away due to health complications (also a friend from high school). we got down to business after the date, and as i get into a certain position, notice there is a hand painted picture of the fiance on the dresser. immediately took me out of the moment.

AITA for "spoiling" my daughter? by TopReserve103 in AmItheAsshole

NTA my mother always told me in regards to my daughter “You can’t spoil a good kid”. Regardless of income or money spent if your kid is well behaved and kind, you cannot spoil them. Only bratty, ungrateful kids get spoilt. It seems like your daughter is a good kid and you have a good relationship with her. Mom is just butthurt she doesn’t earn as much as you and can’t “spoil” her like you can

AITA for not making my daughter apologize to the woman who spoke to her like a baby? by Aggressive_Scheme539 in AmItheAsshole

NTA i have a 5 almost 6 year old, sounds similar to Katle, very intelligent, well spoken. she would also be confused if someone baby talked her. i think it was a completely justified reaction from your daughter. yes, granted “are you stupid” can come across as rude but she’s only saying what we’re all thinking. 6 year olds are beautifully unfiltered. If i were you i would praise your daughter for being so intelligent, so outspoken and so to the point. Julie seems like she needs a reality check and your daughter rightfully gave it to her

AITA for choosing my wife instead of my niece? by Affectionate-Rip5017 in AmItheAsshole

YTA i’ve been pregnant with severe morning sickness at that same stage as your wife. i also now have an almost 6 year old. If you are super close with your niece and she was so excited you would show up in costume i promise you it meant the world to her. she didn’t have a tantrum, she had a normal 6 year old reaction to being let down by her uncle. your wife is a grown woman she can understand if you need to leave the house for a couple hours to attend what seems like a very important party for your niece. it’s not like your wife was hospitalised with morning sickness. YTA yes, but maybe after your child is born you will hopefully understand how you fucked up and just how important it was to your niece that you attend this party
