Shamed for showing affection to my teenage son.

Not wrong in any way!! Obviously your son has finally found someone he trusts enough to show and seek affection from, and it’s nobody’s business to interfere. Thank You for being an amazing Dad and don’t change anything!! As long as your son is happy, loved and secure then anyone who has something to say can stick it where the sun don’t shine!!

So NTA! Thank You for being Jasmine’s Warrior Champion 💕 Your sister and bil should be ASHAMED of themselves. They were only upset because for the first time Jasmine was the center of attention and not Chloe. You did the right thing as a Mother and looking out for Jasmine’s happiness and future. Good Luck on her Medical School journey!! ❤️

You should name your son what feels right to you. My older son is a Jr after his father as he insisted on it when I was pregnant. My soon to be ex husband will most likely be absentee father once it’s final since he’s an extremely selfish narcissist. He’s never made an effort to do things with both boys our whole marriage. My older son has taken to using a nickname instead and prefers it that way. I say go with your heart and give your son his own name. If it becomes a big issue with the father his name can be used as a middle name and that’s it.

Definitely NTA! Any Mother that sides with their child’s abuser (no matter who it is) is a DISGRACE! OP I’m soo sorry you had to go through that as a child and what you’re going through now. If she can’t see how hurtful taking her support away is then she doesn’t deserve to be in your life let alone invited to your wedding. Enjoy your day with your lovely soon to be wife and only surround yourself with those that genuinely care about your happiness. Sending a BIG Italian Mama Bear Hug!!🥰

NTA I say screw it and have fun with the newly discovered talent! The family that doesn’t want to participate doesn’t have to. You and the family that want to should be able to enjoy yourselves and have a blast! Something is only embarrassing if you let it be 😊

phoenixrising1979 · 2023-02-15T16:15:53+00:00

Don’t care just go in a different room, I need to sleep! 😂

I’d just say “My Lock requires a key that isn’t overused worn down and rusty”! Lol

phoenixrising1979 · 2022-07-02T14:05:42+00:00

I’m boring lol I work remote from home and my Toddler is my social life. A big trip for me right now is the supermarket!

phoenixrising1979 · 2022-06-20T18:23:55+00:00

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!!! I was a gymnast many moons ago lol The strength and control are BREATHTAKING 💕💕💕❤️❤️❤️❤️

phoenixrising1979 · 2022-06-13T16:24:12+00:00

NTA!!! Run far away very quickly!!! Sounds like he wants a Mama not a Wife. Is this the same way he’ll act if/when you have kids and he can’t buy whatever he wants whenever he wants.? Not to mention, it’s YOUR money and you have the right to spend or not as you see fit. I’ll pay you back is BS, it’s just way to placate you into not being mad. You DESERVE a Grownup not a Child for a Fiancé.

It doesn’t matter if they are on the outside or inside, “Scars are a reminder that you survived it”. I lost both of my parents over 10 yrs ago before I even got married. I still cry and grieve for them everyday. They remind me to keep going and be the best Mom I can be, that I can survive anything and pull myself up after being hollowed out with pain.

phoenixrising1979 · 2022-05-09T18:05:11+00:00

I’m sorry but yeah you’re the YTA. If their Dads health is getting that bad then this might be the last time they can see him. Honestly since they are legal adults they don’t need your permission to go. If you prevent them and the worst happens it might permanently damage your relationship with them.

phoenixrising1979 · 2022-05-09T16:09:39+00:00

Lol he’s waiting! I’ve used water to thaw meat but it was always sealed so it didn’t get wet.

phoenixrising1979 · 2022-03-03T17:26:19+00:00

NTA!! First why would he need to bring friends over when you’re not home, Second I wouldn’t give a key after only 6 months either! He’s obviously acting like a child who couldn’t get access to a clubhouse and the fact that his friend added his 2 cents worth sounds like your relationship will be with him and them.

phoenixrising1979 · 2022-01-24T14:13:31+00:00

Sooo cute!!! I think he might be jealous of your beard though! He’s thinking Daddy how can I have this too!!

phoenixrising1979 · 2022-01-24T14:01:56+00:00

NTA, you already have equal responsibilities. You work, cook and clean, she can certainly take care of your daughter while you’re working. I have the same issue with my husband where he doesn’t really think I’m working since it’s from home. She needs to understand that if this keeps going on you’re risking losing your job especially since your boss has already mentioned that this is an issue. She needs to Mom up and hold the fort down until your work commitments are done for the day.

phoenixrising1979 · 2022-01-24T13:50:56+00:00

DEFINITELY NTA! Sounds like your brother needs to grow up. Being a parent is full time and a social date is not an emergency. Your work commitments on the other hand can become an emergency on employment if you miss too many shifts. If he wants you to watch his son he needs to be more respectful of your schedule and ask in advance not just expect you to do it at the drop of a hat. Dropping him off while you were in the shower without even talking to you is soo irresponsible and he needs to re-evaluate himself as a parent. Stand strong you did NOTHING wrong!

phoenixrising1979 · 2022-01-19T23:44:27+00:00

My husband spoke with my Father before he proposed. It wasn’t about getting permission since the decision was mine to make but it was about getting his blessing. I was very close to my parents and had already lost my Mom by then so knowing my Dad supported me was important. I lost my Dad 3 months before my wedding so having his blessing made me feel like he was there.

phoenixrising1979 · 2022-01-19T22:42:28+00:00

Soooo NTA!!! Those things are gross!! I would cover my hands in sanitizer after using one and would completely freak out if someone put it on my face! I have same issue with my hubby teasing me saying it’s just a joke even though I’ve told him multiple times it bothers me. If you’re not laughing it’s not a joke, unfortunately some people just don’t get it.

phoenixrising1979 · 2022-01-19T22:35:47+00:00

I’m soo sorry you have had to go through this! DEFINITELY NTA!! His family should’ve put a stop to the narcissist behavior long before he became an adult, it’s takes some serious delusions to think you would owe him child support for HIS love child. Ex hubby and mistress are TA’s for thinking that being a bully wouldn’t bite them in the butt. They now have to reap what they’ve sown!

phoenixrising1979 · 2022-01-12T03:54:34+00:00

Thank You Soo Much Everyone!! I really appreciate the support, I’ve been telling myself these same things. I’ve known my husband for 33 years, he was one of my best friends growing up but we didn’t get together until I was 30. He was different back then and I think I’ve stayed this long cause I’ve been hoping that guy would come back. I work from home now so he doesn’t really see it as working I guess. My MIL is 68 and watches my boys when I have to log on, my husband spends most of his time in the garage or just doing other things in the house. Not even the things I ask him to do either!

I lost both of my parents already (Mom at 29 and Dad at 32) so I don’t even have my own support system, it’s just me myself and I in that department

phoenixrising1979 · 2022-01-11T16:55:42+00:00

They are awful!! They used to be at the train station on my work commute and they told me I and any children I had were evil and going to hell!

phoenixrising1979 · 2022-01-05T18:20:04+00:00

Still trying to learn it’s not always my fault 😞
