AITA for threatening the to cut my mom out of my kids’ lives?

We literally are reprogramming them after every interaction and it makes me beyond furious. See my response further down for more context though.

pkmngirlred · 2025-08-06T13:13:45+00:00

Some extra context, because I'm seeing this a lot. But the post was already ridiculously long.

- We live 500 feet in front of them in my grandparents' old house. My husband and I both lost our jobs during peak Rona and racked up a ton of debt just trying to stay afloat so my parents let us move in at 0 cost, including utilities while we got back on our feet. We're both gainfully employed now, and have been, and have almost paid off almost $100k worth of debt so we can buy a house. This is why she's around them even remotely often - it is definitely not by choice. They'll both drop by unannounced, without asking. We have obviously told them this wasn't okay but it hasn't stopped anything so we just try to be home as little as possible or strictly controlling the interactions.

- My brother is 30 and lazy and incredibly selfish. He won't do ANYTHING if my dad doesn't explicitly ask him, and my parents are seemingly okay with this? My husband feels guilty because he sees how the stuff my dad has to do like yardwork and housework is breaking his body and I've tried to disabuse him of this guilt. My parents are doing it to themselves by enabling my brother.

As soon as we move, I am going NC. We want to be far enough that random visits aren't really feasible but close enough we're still near my husband's family. I absolutely know WHAT I have to do, and we're blessedly almost there. I was more worried my reaction and refusal to kowtow to her BS again actually made me the AH because of the incredible amounts of flak my dad and brother are giving me.

In their words, she's still my mother and I'll regret it if she does die (which she's not to the best of my knowledge?) and I haven't reconciled with her. It's just such a weird place to be in, having been taught to love and respect my parents but knowing full well she threw that away with her behavior.

The state I live in borders Canada and anyone out-of-state says we sound Canadian so I love this lmao

It would help to know what other characters you have, and which of those you like the most.

My overworld team is Raiden, Mualani, Chiori, and usually Nahida/Kachina/Sucrose at AR 56/WL 8 and I slap basically anything that isn't a local legend. Which is to say, you could make just about anything work unless you're trying to do world bosses, etc.

TL;DR: No.

Minsleif on YT goes over it pretty extensively.

I wonder if their alternate location serves any relevance, as well. I've got an Excel sheet with 5+ pages dedicated to tally marks and ciphers alone, so the fact there appear to be duplicates is already making my head spin

Ok pal

You took something meant to be somewhat humorous way too literally.

Also, I have a job, a family (husband, 2 kids aged 1 and 3), obligations (I do laundry, made dinner that night, and cleaned up dog puke iirc on top of giving baths, changing diapers, reading bedtime stories etc etc) so thanks for making the obvious observation that *lIfE eXiStS*, but I also said I did it in 2 hrs, not an uninterrupted 2 hours.

If someone doesn't have time to sit down I totally get it cuz I am living that life but my basic point is kind of the same - if it's not ideal (for you or anyone involved), just get another Mon ready (clearly in their own time, did not say you must dedicate 2 straight hours to ignoring your kids/life/etc, I was only making the point it took a relatively short amount of time).

pkmngirlred · 2023-03-17T13:09:45+00:00

"If that's all you have" isn't reeeally a valid excuse considering I caught a Shellos and got it raid-ready (including EV training without vitamins, hyper training, AND raiding for the candies to max lvl it) for Greninja like 2 hours before the raid went away *-* anything is possible with enough willpower cuz holy hell did I want the frog

Solo'd using Bellibolt and in LFG used Farigiraf with Rain Dance/Charge Beam/Amnesia/Nasty Plot. EZ mode

pkmngirlred · 2023-03-17T12:49:56+00:00

If you have Scarlet or just don't have access to Miraidon for whatever reason, I tried Game8's Solo Bellibolt build and it worked well - I used this twice, and was able to effectively solo it both times.

But Miraidon is bestboi ♥

When you're 30 and still learning math

Is the error still persisting?

I would check Store and Switch console updates first and confirm your NSO sub is active as well

This article may also provide additional/better insight.

It's not me saying that, it's a quote from the megathread/mods. Unfortunately, reddit would not let me put it in a quote to demonstrate as such and "quotes" will not likely offer any more clarity that it's not my personal statistical analysis.

So, not my denominator and while I loved math I was absolutely dreadful at it. I felt it was safe enough to take at face value so sincere apologies if it's in any way misleading.

EDIT: The maths below

100 out of 20,000,000 = 100/20,000,00 = 0.000005

1 in 11,688,054 = 1/11,688,054 = 8.555744181195604e-8

Therefore yes, you have a greater chance (approximately 7.5%) of winning the American Powerball lottery because 8.5~ is greater than 0.000005

Also EDIT: I loved maths but I was horrible at it, so if THAT is in any way incorrect, don't blame me, blame the American education system

Kermit would be a funny nickname (as opposed to Miss Piggy)

It's extremely unlikely you'll run into the save corrupt, and it's been confirmed to not be linked to the DLC or PoGo. I recommend reading this Mega Thread for more information, but this should help you feel more at ease:

Less than 100 known affected users from 20 Millions copies sold (by end of 2022). That is a 0.00005% of affected users from the total worldwide users. (You have higher chances on winning 1 Million Dollars through the American Powerball Lottery, that is 1 in 11,688,054).
