Some girls are early bloomers. For some, they embrace their femininity and roll with it, while others are doomed and condemned for being a curvy pre-teen. Early bloomers are fast-tracked to learn about life, and competition, pretty early, especially when it comes to older, insecure women.

Am I wrong for thinking it’s tacky to invite kids to a birthday party at a restaurant and ask them to pay for their own meal?

'I absolutely think it’s tacky': Birthday party host asks teenagers to pay separate bills

Customs and etiquette change over time, but this mom is pretty sure this party host is being super tacky. There are all types of parties, from simple to extravagant. For smaller events, it can be great to host your family and friends at your home for a backyard BBQ, which is casual and cost effective. Other people love to spend big money on their kids parties by renting entertainers or bouncy houses, or hosting the event at a restaurant or play zone. As a kid, you have a wonderful time regardle…

'Kid is about to lose his computer to eBay': Dad threatens to take son's computer after he runs up massive gaming bill

Owning a credit card is a big responsibility, and it definitely shouldn't fall into the hands of a Roblox-obsessed preteen. One dad found that out the hard way, as he shared with the r/mildlyinfuriating Reddit community. At first, he was just sharing a long receipt of micro transactions that his son had made at the App Store . Spend a dollar here and twenty dollars there and it can really add up fast! The kiddo thought he had a gift card to spend, but once the gift card ran out, he was able to…

'I wasn’t allowed to discipline': 17-year-old allows spoiled niece and nephew to destroy the house after getting reprimanded for putting them in time-out

If you ever babysat as a teen, then you will feel this to your core. People think babysitting is an easy job, that's why teenagers are allowed to do it, right? Wrong. The only teenagers that don't struggle with babysitting are usually the ones who are older siblings and have had to watch over their younger siblings before. But if you as a teen who has zero experience in childcare, then you should be prepared for a lot of bumps on the road. For example, this 17-year-old Redditor who took to the…

This guy shared the story of his days at school, being trapped there without any access to the delightful flash games of the early 00s thanks to the school's overbearing firewall. As idle minds…

'[Am I wrong] for telling my husband the nanny is in charge?': Husband objects to wife telling him to defer to the nanny's judgement for their children

It's understandable to be upset about being told how to take care of your own children, but if you're not spending the time with them to develop the best processes and are paying someone to do so—you'd better put your ego aside, let them do their job, and listen to them. That's what this online community agreed on when the topic was shared on Reddit's r/AmItheA**hole subreddit. They decisively voted that this wife was not in the wrong for telling her work-focused husband to defer to the nanny's…

'She needs a time out': Karen gets shut down by a 5-year-old

There is nothing more brutally cutting than the honest remarks of a child. Their lack of filter and a forming understanding of the world can bring forth some surprisingly perceptive comments that no adult would ever dare think—let alone utter out loud. These comments are usually directed at family or caretakers. They can sufficiently ruin days and demolish the egos of those people. That alone can be a lot to handle, but when they're directed toward complete strangers, it can be humiliating. Tha…

'My partner hasn't done a load of laundry in ten years': Wife takes vacation away from family, husband doesn't know what to do with himself

It's remarkable yet unsurprising how dependent this guy is on his wife. For one, they've been together for 12 years and he's fully 37 years old. In other words, he should be able to do a load of laundry, sweep and clean their home, and take care of the kids by himself for a few nights… especially because that's precisely what his wife has been doing every day since they've been parents. She shared this thread via Reddit's r/AmITheA**hole subreddit. He works in IT and gets exhausted from his ful…

'This makes zero sense': Woman's plane travel luggage hack baffles her family

I thought I'd heard every travel hack , until I read this one, that is. I can truly say I've never thought about treating my luggage the way this woman plans to. Airports are quite strict with their luggage requirements. If you don't look it up before you go, you'll be stuck with a suitcase that's too big or too heavy, meaning you'll have to cough up some cash to fly your precious belongings along with you. And heaven forbid you have liquids that are more than 3.4 ounces, or have a carry on tha…

Thanks to smart phones, any moment can be videoed or photographed , and not everyone is okay with that. Smart phones have made our lives infinitely easier, I wouldn't deny that. However, the cost of everyone having a smart phone is that any and every thing is recordable now. From people's best moments to their worst, people aren't afraid to pull out their phones and start filming.
