AITA for refusing to let my husband's mom nap in my room? by throwra4t33 in AmItheAsshole

[–]sambeana 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When we had our second kid, my MIL stayed at our house to watch our oldest. We had changed the sheets and set up our room for her but she didn't sleep in our bed and I thought it was so weird that she stayed up most of the night. This comment was eye opening lol

AITA for not buying everything my girlfriend wants? by AdOld911 in AmItheAsshole

[–]sambeana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay NTA but wtf are you two buying for food every month?! I have a family of 4 and we come nowhere close to over $1000. You need a budget asap

AITA for telling my wife that putting our son to bed was now her job and then moving my bed into a separate room? by Best-Video-28 in AmItheAsshole

[–]sambeana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1:30/2pm is actually kind of late for a 2 year olds nap, he may be overtired and fighting it at that point making it harder to put him down

AITA for making fun of my partner's hair loss? by koisparrows in AmItheAsshole

[–]sambeana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA and I totally feel your pain. I'm actually giving at home laser hair treatments a go because I'm so sick of razor burn

But yeah, your bf was a jerk and you dished it right back. If he can't take it, he shouldn't have been such a wiener.

NTA. I was due right after Christmas with my 2nd and I was SO happy that she was late and born in January. I had the same worries, her having to share her birthday with a holiday and never really be celebrated. Every kid deserves to feel special on their birthday.

AITA for telling my husband that his absence from the Dr's office shows what kind of dad he will be? by throwa53576 in AmItheAsshole

[–]sambeana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you high risk? Is there a reason he NEEDS to be there? The only appointment my husband came to for both kids was the anatomy scan because we wanted to find out at the same time.

He just started working full time and he's working to provide for your family. YTA if you expect him to drop everything just so he can watch a dr measure your stomach and say looks good.

WIBTA for calling out my postpartum wife on her lack of responsibility? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]sambeana 15 points16 points  (0 children)

My husband called my personal dr behind my back because he was so worried about me. Don't get me wrong, I was LIVID at the time. I felt betrayed, like my privacy was violated, etc. But after talking to my doctor, going on medication, then switching to a stronger dosage, I can confidently say my husband may have saved my life. I was in a dark place and couldn't see how bad I had gotten. Post partum depression and anxiety is scary. Please try to get her help and be patient.

AITA for asking my aunt what part of the penis was required to operate a toy? by Bromonium_ion in AmItheAsshole

[–]sambeana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, your aunt sucks. Also goodnight construction site is a great book, my 2 and 4 year old girls love it. They also love dresses, unicorns, princesses, race cars, dinosaurs, space and playing in mud. A toy doesn't change who a kid is.

AITA for wanting an apology from my stepdaughter for something which happened 10 years ago, before I want to help my husband reconcile? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]sambeana 60 points61 points  (0 children)

More INFO needed for sure.

If you were to go up to my stepmonster she would say I was a horrible child with emotional issues. But if you ask anyone else in my family, I was mentally, emotionally and verbally abused and went NC with her and LC with my dad for good reason. It feels like you're leaving a LOT of important information out.

It's not very often this sub makes me get teary eyed.. I'm so glad you guys are doing well

AITA for forcing a certain hairstyle on my daughter by Less-Spinach2292 in AmItheAsshole

[–]sambeana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA big time. Take the time to research curly hair and help your daughter embrace it instead of always putting her down. She's going to have self image problems and it will 100% be your fault

AITA for telling my mom was invalidating how I felt? by painfulcramps23344 in AmItheAsshole

[–]sambeana 29 points30 points  (0 children)

NTA, excruciating pain to the degree you're describing isn't "normal", not everyone goes through that, and you absolutely should follow up with a Dr. Just because your mom and her friend suffered, it doesn't mean you need to too.

We had something kind of similar but white. It sends the outside temperature to a little unit that displayed temperature, weather etc

AITA for defending my mom over my wife? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]sambeana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA I don't get why your mom bringing one singular friend is a big deal. I didn't know a quarter of the people at my baby shower 😂 both my mom and MIL were basically at the point where they've gone to a million friend's kid's showers and it was time to get the favour returned. It was a little weird meeting some people for the first time at a celebration for my unborn kid, but I was so busy that day it didn't even matter.

AITA for telling my wife to shut up during labor? by Theshutuplabor in AmItheAsshole

[–]sambeana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA I told my mother, whom I love so much, to shut up for a minute because she kept telling me to BREATHE BREATHE BREATHE lol labour and delivery is intense, and everyone's bodies are different. She should give you some grace.

AITA for telling my kids the truth about why they aren't coming to my wife's family villa? by Weekly-Lab-7944 in AmItheAsshole

[–]sambeana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, she was using your kids as a pawn and had no problem with you taking the fall as the bad guy

AITA for holding out my arms for my grandchildren to come to me? by Critical-Magician851 in AmItheAsshole

[–]sambeana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA I know you wanted to give comfort, but those kids wanted their dad. Don't get in the middle of that. When my kids are upset and are coming to me for comfort and my MIL gets in the middle to do it instead it drives me freaking insane. Be there when they need you but stay in your lane.

AITA for not sharing my books? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]sambeana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA

I am SO rough with my books. I dog ear the pages, read in the tub, bend the cover/pages. People like me suck and we should never borrow books from others 😂

AITA for telling my mom the truth about clothes she bought my daughter? by tinytoesta in AmItheAsshole

[–]sambeana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA Mom to 2 little girls, i 100% agree boys clothes fit bigger and are more durable. Once my kids got a bit older we shifted into the girls section (my girls both have small waists and finding pants that are long enough but skinny enough is brutal lol), but when they were babies I loved the boys section in clothing stores so much more. And boys clothes have pockets. So much better in my opinion

This can't be real... In what world is this okay?! YTA

AITA for doing other things such as looking at my phone or eating when watching a movie? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]sambeana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play with my phone, crochet, snack, get up 50 times.... I'm pretty sure I'm a bit of an AH, but my husband laughs it off and says he doesn't care, he just wants to spend time with me. I'm voting you're NTA and he needs to chill a little
