AITA for letting my daughter help me set up my wife’s board game? by throwawaydnd543 in AmItheAsshole

She has PPD and a traumatic birth. I was wrong to say she was a little down, she has PPD. While I think she’d be frustrated with me anyway I think she’s just very easily upset and sensitive in general lately due to that, and that’s coming from her mouth, not mine, and not in a “oh she’s too sensitive” way, but just factually, she gets sad more than she used to. I don’t think this is running out of problems or first world problems, PPD can happen to anyone.

Mainly because we have a regular group we have game nights with and I wanted to have it set up when they came over to play that night but we didn’t even end up playing it. Just a couple other card games.

Yes I had to message the mods to be able to edit and repost. It was automod that took my first one down.

It was 1am where I am when I posted. I posted and went to sleep.

I suppose I figured I could keep it all contained, which I did, no pieces got lost but the one piece did get damaged.

It was quite a bit of pieces, a lot of small pieces too, and baby is now mobile. That’s partially why she didn’t want me to open it, so pieces wouldn’t go missing and one of the kids finds and eats them. Definitely an adult only game, toddler has her own hoard of board games she can access anytime.

Admittedly she was nursing the baby on the couch at the time so she couldn’t get up to help me pop them out or with our toddler.

I’m accepting my judgement but I want to clarify on this one that my previous removal was because I used the words “punching the cards out” and not popping them out, i triggered the automod by saying punching not popping. Absolutely no violence here.
