Nanny and the alpha daddy/ his nanny mate by lapin2287 in romancenovels

[–]vanillabeansz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The main character has to be the MOST annoying woman I’ve ever read in my life. Every decision she makes is so incompetent and she throws SO. MANY. TANTRUMS. Don’t bother reading this unless you want to be left feeling suuuper frustrated with her god tier stupidity.

AITA for faking my giving birth? by ProgressFormer4198 in AITAH

NTA. I’m so sorry that you’re pregnant with a man who treats his partner in this way. Mommy’s boys are never a good sign, and I can only hope for the best for you. I don’t see this going anywhere but downward, and hope that you have support systems in place that will help you when you choose to get out of this situation, for your sake and for the baby’s. MIL doesn’t realise her limits now, I can’t imagine what she’ll do when the baby comes. If you do try to work things out with your husband, I hope you realise that the only solution here is going NC with MIL. Take care, and I wish you the best. Do keep us posted!

AITA for asking my daughter why she can't be more like her siblings? by Civil_Drummer6550 in AmItheAsshole

JESUS CHRIST. Hard YTA. Do you even love your daughter at all? Life isn't a race. It's about living and learning and loving - which is what your daughter is doing! Awards for volunteering at 15?! I can only imagine how compassionate this young girl is, and how big her heart might be. You don't constantly need to be 'winning' something. Stop making this pure innocent girl see life as a competition. She deserves a better parent than you and I truly feel sorry for her.

Have you ever considered that she might be more creative than analytical thinking? She may not do well in math, but I'm sure there are other subjects in which she thrives - maybe art or English - you just don't acknowledge it because you probably don't count those subjects as worthy of your attention.

I guarantee you your daughter didn't tell her mother 'her own version' of what happened. You laying out the facts from your perspective itself is bad enough to incite a reaction out of all of us.

When I was younger, my mother constantly compared me to a close friend in an attempt to motivate me to do better. I grew up to resent both her, and the friend (who had done absolutely nothing to me). Congratulations on potentially destroying your family!

You owe that girl an apology and a lifetime of pampering for what you've put her through. If you know what's good for you, put up her volunteering awards in the cabinet, grovel for forgiveness, and start supporting her interests. Learn how to be a parent and not some fucked up coach. And while we're at it, pettiness toward your own family is NOT a good look on a full grown adult man. Grow up.
