It's rare that a parenting disagreement actually escalates to police involvement in the investigation of theft. At least, I would hope and assume that this is the case, but maybe it happens with a higher degree of frequency than you'd anticipate. This mother describes her son's obsession with motorcycles and automobiles There are a lot of working pieces and ethics to consider when it comes to the inter-workings of this story. First of all, this husband is not the son's biological father, and we…

It's never a good thing when an employer forces their employee to miss a significant life event in order to assert their authority over the employee's life and ensure that they never dare to question the importance of their work again. Such instances are dehumanizing and toxically reinforce the bizarre idea that our work is more important than our family and health. It's shocking then to think that a parent could do this to their own child who works for them. Well, that's exactly what happened…

This pregnant woman found herself in her mother-in-law's crosshairs and was accused of cheating when she was caught in a lie. The thing is, she was lying to avoid having to tell her mother-in-law that she was playing video games. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/ AITA (Am I the A-Hole) subreddit by Reddit user u/True_Tap_5721. She posted the thread to the poplar sub to see if she was in the wrong for sinking herself into a bed of lies, which led her mother-in-law to accuse her of infidelity…

Everyone has a breaking point. Even the calmest and most level-headed people will reach that moment when enough is enough, and they just can't take it anymore. These stories are examples of those moments that people witnessed, as shared on this trending r/askreddit thread. There are a lot of responses about otherwise even-tempered teachers and mentors in this thread that snapped . Just a trend I noticed that shows how much torture we collectively put these people through. This thread was posted…

This mother failed to show up to collect her child after leaving This couple agreed to watch the boyfriend's ex's kid on the grounds that she pick him up by 9am the next morning. “NTA," voted user Temporary Badger. "I’m very glad you called because this woman very much needs CPS to be keeping an eye on the health and safety of her child.” “I can’t even tell you the amount of times we were given him early in the morning and you could tell his diaper hadn’t been changed since he’d gone to sleep t…

A daughter refused her father's requests to purchase an HDMI cable with her discount for usage in the family household. The employee purchasing policy expressly forbids receiving compensation for any purchases and the daughter was determined to honor the strictest interpretation of the policy. It certainly comes across in the post as if she is just trying to spite her father and taking any excuse possible not to purchase him the cable he is after. Why can't she just buy it for him as a gift… It…

A bit of an over-reaction.

Judge internet presides.

It's so confusing how a situation like this could occur in 2022. In a world where we pursue litigation for everything and equality for all… We still can't put changing stations on the wall of a men's restroom? This should be required so that fathers can change their children's dirty diapers without having to brave the horrors of a women's restroom. How is it not already? This dad posted this thread to Reddit's r/AITA (Am I the A-Hole) subreddit. He posted the thread to see if he was in the wron…

It certainly takes a special type of person to be annoyed by their partner's discomfort and health pains. It's tough to imagine judging someone who you (supposedly) love so deeply for something that is entirely out of their control and acting like they are being lazy. Even worse when the thing that is causing that discomfort and pain is the fact that they are growing your child inside of them. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/AITA (Am I the A-Hole) subreddit by the concerned wife who is won…

Oh, the joys of parenting.

She was willing to fight for her right to party.

That child miiiiiight not be this person's son's kid.

She will be missed

Everyone has different priorities. Some people care about their hobbies, some about sport, and others still about their careers. When we join together and form relationships, these priorities can clash and cause conflict; without careful compromise, concession, and communication, these conflicts can grow and tear the relationship asunder. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/AITA (Am I the A-Hole) subreddit by the wife, u/workingmomaita, who feels that her husband should be picking up any extra…
