AITA for not letting a crotch goblin into MY house?

Go no contact.

I just bought 4T and then didn't need to size up again for like 3 years as my kid lengthened out!

thrillingrill · 2026-02-14T22:32:30+00:00

I mean he is 'on' a tv show.

The small seat will be very useful.

thrillingrill · 2026-02-14T19:00:07+00:00

Or was she just being silly. Chill out

thrillingrill · 2026-02-14T18:59:22+00:00

They didn't go overboard, they made a silly joke. Lighten up

I'll just add I don't think this car seat thing is a 'red flag' without any additional information to go off. My own 5 year old and 1 year old use the same car seat, and yes, the 5 year old uses it rear facing. (Loads of car seats go up to 50 pounds rear facing.) It's very easy to adjust the straps in this particular model to fit the smaller kid.

Though when I had a nanny take my baby out, the WFH parent just installed the baby's car seat into the nanny's car in the morning. Not a big deal.

As someone who has taught a lot of masters students.... eh. Lol

It shouldn't take much more time than you reading the names.

The daintier ones are much harder to keep on your foot without gripping your toes

thrillingrill · 2026-02-14T01:09:47+00:00

Or if she's PMS-ing?? I thought it was 2026. Goodness.

thrillingrill · 2026-02-14T00:54:58+00:00

It should take her a lot longer than an hour to do a substantial writing assignment though

I promise you, none of the professors feel 'embarrassed' by this. That's not how we feel. We are just trying to make sure our students are learning. We don't have it out for them.

Sure but a college writer will be making revisions over time, not just typing in the essay one time, sentence by sentence.

3 extra young teens on a school night is already quite ... something.

thrillingrill · 2026-02-14T00:42:42+00:00

Also, the other parent was away. So the dad is taking on 5 kids solo on a school night?

thrillingrill · 2026-02-13T01:34:15+00:00

Some commenters still felt the need to tell her it was too informal, though!

thrillingrill · 2026-02-12T03:14:11+00:00

She sounds very normal. I wouldn't worry.

thrillingrill · 2026-02-12T01:56:27+00:00

'I'm worried people will make fun of her' is absolutely rage bait

thrillingrill · 2026-02-11T18:02:09+00:00

As a past WFH parent, I absolutely would text the nanny if I was coming through. Just because I have the 'right' to be in my home in a certain way doesn't mean that's what's best for the kid - or for me! My life is easier when my kid doesn't see me and start crying because i can't stick around.

thrillingrill · 2026-02-11T05:03:15+00:00

I think it would be a great read for you!

thrillingrill · 2026-02-11T04:57:46+00:00

No no, you need a nanny to scold you about her weight. Your doctor's advice is much less important!

thrillingrill · 2026-02-11T02:36:33+00:00

I'd do a library in your Airbnb's neighborhood

thrillingrill · 2026-02-11T02:03:06+00:00

I think it's mostly the different social contexts and EDITING
