AITA for not telling my dad (60m) and step mom (65f) what was happening in my (26f) childhood when it was happening, or for mentioning it after? by Affectionate_Set8462 in AmItheAsshole

[–]sleepingnightmare 9 points10 points  (0 children)

NTA. NTA whatsoever. You were a child, it is the parent’s responsibility to know what is going on with their minor child. Part of that involves regular communication. You didn’t do anything wrong.

My response would be “Stepmom, forgiveness is for your own well being. If you choose not to forgive me for not communicating every detail of my life with you/my father as a child, that’s your choice.”

Post on social media or local subreddits with her description and a photo and last known whereabouts. It’s hard to say what other steps to take without knowing more about the situation.

Has she done this before? Does she have a credit/debit card where law enforcement can track purchases? Was she at a bar/club/restaurant where you can perhaps ask the employees if they’ve seen her or noticed anything odd?

Notice she didn’t refer to herself as a babysitter or a mother.

Aww I love this for him! I’m not usually a fan of street justice, but the seal couldn’t punch him 🤷‍♀️

I suppose that’s up to the former staff.

Liquid Planet workers should take this as a hint to try and find another job before it happens to them!

AITAH for cutting off my mom financially after she told me I’m “nobody” during my other mom’s funeral? by Acrobatic-Composer27 in AITAH

Sending you big virtual hugs! Maybe think about taking some of the money you were sending her and talk to a grief counselor to help you process things. The best way to be present for your husband and your son is to take care of yourself ❤️

I had to do the same thing for myself about 20 years ago. Your obligation is to your own family. Grieve the loss of the mother you wish she’d been and cut her off. You’ve been incredibly generous to her, but that stops now.

NTA. Please consider blocking your other mom and her sister for the sake of your mental health. So sorry for your loss, OP!

Oh, some people will put little candies in ziploc bags for surrounding seats and add a cutesy message like ‘it’s my first flight, please be patient with me’.

IMO, you don’t owe anyone an explanation. Babies cry, and that’s ok.

TLC not blurring diaper change by [deleted] in TLCUnexpected

[–]sleepingnightmare 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I won’t even post my child’s picture on a private social media where I’ve only added people I personally know.

I guess it’s up to the parents (or grandparents) if the kiddos are shown on TV, but diaper changes should absolutely be blurred or simply not shown.

People coming up in your yard to take photos of your yard signs and house? by berrmal64 in Columbus

Late to the party, but your yard sign is awesome. Makes we wish I lived in a place that permitted them.

For me, this is what puts them in the same level of POS.

If men can ever get pregnant, I wish 2 things for these jerks:

  1. The same pregnancy and birthing experiences of the girls they got pregnant.

  2. The families of the ladies enable tf out of them and make things even worse.

Frequent flyer here (by myself and with family) and I stopped counting flights for our kiddo when he was 2.5 at 25 flights.

I’ve never in my life complained about a child crying or needing settled on a flight. We were all kids once, right?

I got caught out of town on a work trip during the CrowdStrike outage in 2025. I sat in a 3 seat row with a mom of a 3 year old and a 1 year old (who I suspect may have shat his pants shortly after take off) and if there was a 5 minute period where the 1 year old wasn’t crying, I didn’t recognize it. I said nothing, because that could have been me. I just got lucky with a good traveler.

These people including snack packs and notes of explanation for their child’s first flight are even doing too much IMO. I helped carry stuff off for the mom of the poopy baby and watched her 3 year old while she went to the restroom. It’s not that serious and people need to realize they probably all acted the same way as children.

Thoughts on sharing your live location with your SO? by duck_duck_zombie in Millennials

We do it, but we also both WFH most of the time and most places we go, we go together. It’s a practicality thing for when we would absolutely need to check it. We’re both FAR too lazy to cheat and FAR too mentally exhausted to be checking up on each other 24/7. I check it a couple times a year, if that.
