A bakery employee shared this tale of a cake mixup that must have been the most embarrassing day this customer ever had. At least this worker never let it leave their memory — it's just too funny! Birthday parties are definitely one of the most fun parts of childhood, whether you were blowing out your own candles, or visiting someone else's house to give them gifts. But in all the commotion of parties, do kids really care about or notice their birthday cake? I don't think so, but this one woman…

Parents, you may tell a few little white lies to your kid every now and then… but kids don't always realize you're stretching the truth.

When a couple decides to have children, it's usually an unstated agreement that the children are BOTH adults' responsibility. However, sometimes folks forget that when you rear a human child, it is a ton of work on your own and is a task best suited for both parents to pitch in. Now, when you have 4 kiddos, that is a responsibility that is obviously quadrupled. One working woman and mother of four kids, recently got into a fight with her deadbeat husband about their shared parenting and Reddit…

It's essential to maintain a good relationship with your kid's teachers, but sometimes they're such idiots that it can be difficult, if not impossible to have any genuine desire to do so. Teachers are still people with opinions, and although I condone free speech, I am also able to pass serious judgment on their opinions. This teacher in particular called up one of her student's mothers one day out of the blue, and wasted no time in telling her that ‘she must stop packing her son such disgustin…

No good deed goes unpunished, as one neighbor found out after being exposed on social media. It all started when this guy decided to get a nice sports car to drive around in during the summer months. He also has a “winter beater,” a run-down SUV that he drives during the winter months to preserve his sports car. However, the OP wrote that he has a young neighbor with kids, and she was in a bit of a financial struggle after a divorce. The OP decided to be nice to her and let her borrow the winte…

Cleaning for a 5 year old's birthday party is pushing this couple into a huge fight. This couple has a 5 year old daughter, and they each work between 60-80 hours per week in legal careers. If that already sounds exhausting, they're also adding on the stress of organizing a party for their kiddo. The OP writes that his wife really wants this party held at their home, but she isn't satisfied with the cleanliness of their home. U/Silas_Of_The_Lambs, the OP, added that his wife needs the place to…

This confused freelancer is unsure if they asked for way too much money to babysit their cousin's three youngsters. U/HENNYDEFN was pretty sure they weren't asking for too much money, but they checked with the r/AmItheA**hole community to be sure. As the OP writes, they're actually a software engineer who freelances on the side. They make between $40-$60 per hour at their official roles, but they were willing to offer a family discount when their cousin asked them to babysit . This cousin is br…

This guy wondered if he was in the wrong for trying to be a good neighbor to some folks who made a snap judgement about him. As the OP, u/goodneighbor123 wrote to r/AmItheA**hole, he and his family moved to Ontario, Canada, where the conditions are frosty cold. Since he's familiar with the weather conditions , he writes that he often puts his wife's windshield wipers up before a storm. Then, he strolls the neighborhood to where his five other neighbors live and puts their wipers up for them, ju…

Planning and hosting a kid's birthday party is stressful enough, but this woman's entitled sister-in-law made it so much worse. This OP shared her story with the internet, since she was seeking helpful opinions on whether or not she was the jerk in this situation. As the OP, u/haley××2 wrote, she was planning a birthday party for her kiddo, age 8, and inviting a bunch of people over. The OP invited her sister in law and niece, age 6, to the party as well. Since her niece has several allergies,…

Oh no, the waiter isn't a babysitter, how terrible...

It's always awkward to try and parent someone else's kid, but this woman thinks she did the right thing by asking her brother to make his kids behave . U/C_E_Ki wrote to the r/AmItheA***** subreddit with an important question regarding her family. She writes that she and her GF hosted her brother, his wife, and their two young kids , both under age 5. The OP writes that she was never crazy about the idea, as she and her brother never seem to get along that well when they hang out. But after the…

“I had a major fight with my wife,” one guy admitted in a post asking if he was the a******, writing “I almost feel like I'm the one [who is] crazy.”

Critical care units at the hospital can be a bleak place, but one post-punk ICU nurse has one way to keep everyone smiling: his elaborate mohawk. Some people were just born to bring color into the world and Zach is no exception, expressing himself every day at work with the mega-fin on his head and colorful bursting designs. At the beginning of the pandemic, Zach struggled to find ways to keep his own kids at home entertained so to pass the time (and have some fun_, he shaved his head into a 6"…

If you won millions in the lotto, what's the first thing you would do? For many of us, our first instinct would be to call our immediate family and best friends to share the news! But this guy called his ex-wife right after his parents — and his actual current GF is steaming mad about it! Not only did this guy called his ex first , he offered her some of the money. While some people in the comments immediately began to question his motives, he makes it pretty clear: he had kids with his ex . He…

Hobbies take many shapes and sizes, from cooking to knitting to painting. This guy's hobby is collecting and building Lego kits, but unfortunately his family doesn't see his passion as a real hobby at all. In a post to r/AmItheA******, u/swlego_fan wrote about an incident that happened when he asked his sister, her husband, and their kid to keep an eye on his two dogs while traveling. The OP said he directed his nephew to a big box of Lego pieces for him to build and play with. The only thing t…
