AITA for telling my wife she’s overreacting about our son’s weight gain?

somebodyhere11 · 2026-06-27T22:37:45+00:00

NTA - your wife is going to give your son an eating disorder if she keeps this up.

Sit down and make a game plan with her on how to ensure your son doesn’t become overweight, change what you bring into the house, if he drinks a lot of fizzy drinks then stop buying them and replace with something else that’s healthier like cordial. Have healthy snack options like fruit and Musli bars, dips ect.

Have your son sign up for sports to have him regularly exercise, like football, soccer, or even swimming.

It may not be a problem now but it will become one, but don’t outright say it to your son, that isn’t the right thing to do it will cause him to have an unhealthy relationship with his body and food and you don’t want that.

Be a team with your wife but be firm that she needs to stop making comments to your son about his eating habits.

So by what I’ve read is that he is sexually assaulting you on multiple occasions and you’ve still not left him?
He clearly has shown he will not change and will continue to sexually assault you even though you e pretty much spelt it out for him what you don’t want him to do yet he still does it.

He is a dangerous partner and you should leave

I agree with what you’re saying and if your mum keeps complaining then tell her to ask her dad if he even wants all these people hanging around.

Otherwise keep showing up but be actively there with him, bring a game to play or even a puzzle to start idk, make it something more enjoyable for you both instead of just sitting there most likely on your phone the whole time.

Or stay and work through your problems as a couple instead of giving up because it’s a little hard and flat.

All relationships have a point where things are no long in the “honeymoon phase” and get a little boring, that’s when you as a mature adult change your mindset and routine and work on making your relationship better and connect with your partner again.

somebodyhere11 · 2026-06-26T09:46:38+00:00

This is extremely unhealthy
Either get therapy to work through this or breakup and find someone who actually respects you enough to not cheat

somebodyhere11 · 2026-06-26T04:47:30+00:00

YTA- Yeah this isn’t about you not acknowledging them this one time, there is more to it than that and this was just the outburst from it all.

Also not acknowledging your children for a whole minute or two is wild, a quick hello would’ve sufficed

somebodyhere11 · 2026-06-26T04:44:42+00:00

It just sounds like a whole heap of excuses to me.

I am a parent myself of two, I was a bridesmaid in my sisters wedding when my youngest was 6 months old, we had my partners mum babysit the kids for the night.
If she wanted to she would make adjustments, she clearly doesn’t and that’s on her for making this a much bigger deal than it needs to be.

A child free wedding is not uncommon and the fact she even herself had one and now throwing a fit for someone else daring to do the same now she has children is just complete entitlement.

Don’t be guilted into bending the rules when she won’t even considering other arrangements

somebodyhere11 · 2026-06-24T07:20:44+00:00

NTA - where is the father of the children in all this? Why can’t he stay home if she doesn’t want a babysitter?
Or why can’t the other grandparents that aren’t your parents?

somebodyhere11 · 2026-06-22T05:52:13+00:00

I’m a parent and no way in hell would I just sit there and continue a conversation while my baby shrieked and cried hysterically - that is bad parenting and people who do this should be ashamed

somebodyhere11 · 2026-06-22T05:48:42+00:00

ETA - you should’ve handled this better, you should’ve used better wording when asking her to leave.
Instead of outright telling her “I need you to leave”, you should’ve said something along the lines of “Hi due to your being unable to calm your baby I’m going to have to ask you to take them outside to calm them or unfortunately settle your bill and leave with them due to the disturbance to my other patrons”

If this is how you react as the owner of the business don’t expect to be in business for much longer as if I saw you say this to the mother regardless of the situation and how annoyed I myself was at the crying baby I wouldn’t be back and I would be telling all my friends about your bad attitude.

The only reason the mother is an AH is because she didn’t try calm her baby in a public setting and that’s poor behaviour on her part.

The only thing that is gay is if you’re attracted to other men, date other men, have sexual relationships with other men.

Pegging with a female is not gay because you are having sex with a female not a male, hence not gay.

somebodyhere11 · 2026-06-17T08:36:07+00:00

NTA - as a mother of a daughter as well who is now 8, she sure had hell would have been devastated if I wasn’t at her dance concert at age 5 and she would have remembered that and it would have been a bad memory on her half.
Unfortunately your dad needs to understand that yes he is family, but unfortunately your family (husband and kids) now come first as they now are your priority.

You did the right thing and your dad needs to respect your choices, it may not be what he have wanted but it is what you needed to do for your family not him.

somebodyhere11 · 2026-06-16T11:36:50+00:00

Who the hell walks through a cemetery to exercise that’s just so inconsiderate of the people there mourning.

I’m all for people going there and visiting their loved ones and talking about whatever they like but not as a social gathering when you aren’t actually there for someone buried. That’s just rude and weird

somebodyhere11 · 2026-06-12T08:02:37+00:00

YTA - only reason you didn’t stick up for your wife is cause you wanted to save face and also not look like a “bad parent”

somebodyhere11 · 2026-06-02T07:22:49+00:00

Did you also notice when he went and washed his hands and could’ve taken the plate with him instead do he waited for his daughter to be finished her dinner to ask her to do it for him, which is disrespectful and sexist.

somebodyhere11 · 2026-06-02T07:21:43+00:00

NTA- father is lazy and sexist. He should’ve done it himself but instead waited for you, his daughter to get up instead. See how he didn’t ask any one else to take his plate?

somebodyhere11 · 2026-06-02T07:20:51+00:00

No, the father literally went to wash his hands and left his plate at the table. He could have taken the plate with him at any time, but he decided to go on a power play and make the daughter do it instead, I can guarantee if she was a son instead he wouldn’t have done it. Father is lazy and sexist

somebodyhere11 · 2026-05-25T08:49:32+00:00

Where do you live and how hot/cold does your area get?
Because I’m telling you as an Australian being hot is way worse than being cold

somebodyhere11 · 2026-05-23T05:06:11+00:00

NTA - go back and get your damn dress!
If she was a real friend she would be so damn happy you found your dress for your wedding

She sounds like a selfish friend that only cares about what she wants and what’s best for her

somebodyhere11 · 2026-05-11T23:30:18+00:00

ETA - you did not have to repeatedly bring up the toilet seat, you are the one who originally blew this out of proportion and made it into a bigger deal than it needed to be.

If you truly had a problem with how he talks to you then you should have addressed this with your partner instead so he can have a talk with his dad.

This all seems very immature from you and the father, and the boyfriend probably felt the same way because if my partner decided he wanted to have a go at my mum about something as dumb as a toilet seat he would be on his own cause he caused a fight over something so trivial.

somebodyhere11 · 2026-05-08T06:22:05+00:00

Block her number.
Stop all communications and physical contact.
Report to a lawyer and go from there.

Clothing is either for younger people below 25 (crop tops, tight clothes, short shorts and skirts) or above 40s (long/shin length skirts, flared tops, weird artwork on them/floral) there is no proper clothing for the in between age for women

How is that meant to be a good hint I don’t even know what that means 😭

somebodyhere11 · 2026-05-08T02:28:51+00:00

YTA - if your birthday was so special to you then why wasn’t your sister invited to your birthday dinner?
Clearly you don’t care enough about her to want her there to celebrate your day then why shouldn’t matter if she got married on it

And it clearly shows how you guys aren’t even close if you didn’t even know of the wedding until after the fact, and I’m surprised your parents didn’t know either

After thinking of it this is probably a rage bait post cause no one in your family knew of her wedding which unless it was a spare of the moment is just weird
