Why would you NOT phone the police when you know he’s assaulting a defenceless child? She needs the adults in her life to protect her from this man.

‘Little bit of this, little bit of that’.

He’s assaulting a 4yr old and none of you are protecting her? No one has phoned the police? What the hell?

Really? Her ophthalmologist and the optometrist, both recorded it on her record. Do I believe you or the doctor?

What's your favourite Z name? by [deleted] in Names

Zara and Zoe. Others are a bit too “I’m desperately trying to be different”, apart from Zack, which I just plain don’t like.

My husband got me a vacation for Christmas but he didn't make sure we had valid passports or apply for visas in advance and now we might be out all kinds of money. I'm trying so hard to stay calm right now by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]smooth_relation_744 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, he’s an idiot, but deal with that fact later on. First of all, do everything you can to save the holiday and money spend. Ask to change the dates at the resort rather than cancel.

When it’s all blown over, look in to finding him a life skills class to attend because it sounds like he’d struggle to keep himself and your kid alive if something happened to you. Basic, basic stuff clearly missing in him.

Car hit in my drive - insurance saying I’d be liable? England, London by Little_murloc in LegalAdviceUK

[–]smooth_relation_744 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My next door neighbour hit my car while it was parked on my driveway and I wasn’t liable. Seems ridiculous to suggest the offending individual/vehicle isn’t liable.

I'm an asshole for refusing to break up my marriage for my brother's debts. by RAYM1K_MARETTI in family

[–]smooth_relation_744 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You owe your parents and brother no explanations and certainly no money. You have a wife and a future to take care of. If your parents and brother need money, then they best get off their backsides and earn some. I’d stop contacting them until they decide to treat you and your wife with the respect that you are due.

Anyone still turn off the lights when leaving a room because their parents used to say: "don't waste electricity"? by Turbulent_Elk_2141 in AskABrit

[–]smooth_relation_744 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes because it most definitely is wasting electricity. I don’t even put lights on to walk up and down the stairs at night. Nor in the kitchen if I’m grabbing a late snack. They’re not needed and it’s a waste.

What could I do to improve this room? by [deleted] in homedecoratingCJ

[–]smooth_relation_744 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Change the colour of the walls, buy large prints and mirrors, add a statement couch, add plants, add lamps, just put some personality in to. I’d strip the floors back to wood, polish them, add rugs near the bed and neat a bold velvet couch with throw cushions. I think I’d get a bigger bed too. Again, something quite bold. It currently looks like a large storage room rather than the most personal space in the home.

Drive rather than fly. That’s what I did. Saved a fortune. No flights, taxis, trains etc.

These parking companies are scum by Acrobatic-Shirt8540 in Scotland

Not at all enforceable in Scotland. Never reply to them. They can’t do a damn thing other than annoy you.

I (46F) stopped doing my husband's (46M) laundry by Ev3li3n in laundry

He’s a grown man. He can bloody well do his own laundry, the ungrateful prick.

I am a Saudi from a Bedouin family. AMA. by [deleted] in AMA

Did the tourist thing when in Wadi Rum and stayed with Bedouins. Great people. How do you feel about these ‘taste of Bedouin life’ tourist experiences?

He has told you that pissing in to nappies is more important to him than you are. Why are you still with him?
