My entire family is angry at me [F32] because I told my sister [F33] I'm pregnant. They didn't want me to tell her because she's done IVF twice and didn't work for her. They wanted me to wait until my baby is born to tell her so it doesn't hurt her feelingsquote:I love my sister and I know she's always wanted to get pregnant but had trouble conceiving so she tried IVF twice in the last couple years, although sadly it didn't work for her.

Is the sister not supposed to notice that there is a baby in that belly? Is the family just going to tell her that her sister is really getting fat, totally out of control on the twinkies.

"Don't tell me to get out of your house! I still have to berate you in your own home for thirty more minutes!" I'm wondering what the sordid backstory is. We've seen a handful of stories about 'my sister/cousin/best friend can't conceive; how do I bring up my pregnancy' (there was a really sad one where an OP's sister lost her pregnancy and had to have a hysterectomy after an accident), but to have rules where you can't even mention a pregnancy? I know fertility struggles can be devastating, but to put a complete gag order on it and go off on your other child for having the gall to tell her sister when she's already obviously pregnant?!

I mean, it does absolutely smack of 'our favored child is struggling so hard... oh look, the other one gets pregnant without any trouble. Whoop-de-doo.' Guessing there's that golden child/scalegoat dynamic or something going on.

As was mentioned with cheaters, in many families there’s enormous pressure for the regular, nice, well adjusted person to bend over backwards because they know there’s no changing the rear end in a top hat sibling. Don’t rock the boat and all that

Even my awe-inspiring shower of gold, the aspect in which I fathered Perseus by the fair Danaë, is a total bust. There are some contemporary women who claim to enjoy golden showers, but they are not fit consorts for Zeus.

It’s kind of funny to me that people think that they can tell their family members’ sexual proclivities from looking at them. If your mom is into ballsack torture and you knew about it, that would be questionable parenting at best.

My (28F) fiance (30m) have wildly different financial risk tolerances. My fiance is a good man, with a good heart, and I love him to death. Our relationship isn't perfect, but I'm so excited to spend the rest of my life with him! We're getting married in December, and the one major problem that keeps coming up is that he's way more willing to risk money than I am. It's worth noting that he makes about twice what I do, but watching him put money on unsure bets is driving me insane. He lost a few month's salary on cryptocurrency, he doesn't have a stable IRA or 401k, he doesn't save beyond a one month emergency fund, he just invests wildly. His job is also less stable than mine- he works in a startup environment. I come from money-under-the-mattress people. I don't trust most investments, I hate debt, I have almost no risk tolerance when it comes to money. As I noted, I make a lot less than him, and I also grew up not-quite-poor but definitely not well-off either. He grew up very middle class- money was never much of an object to him. Before we decided to get married, this wasn't a major issue. It was his money, his risks. But now that we live together, and we're planning to sign a few legal documents together and build a life together, I'm really worried that the rug is going to be pulled out from underneath us if we don't have a nest egg. Whenever I bring this up, he has a tendency to get really defensive and bring up that he earned that money, and should be able to do whatever he wants with it. That's fair, but if we're building a future I feel like I should have a say that happens. I told him that I don't feel secure without a nest egg underneath us, and he took it as though I don't trust him to provide, and all but outright accused me of being a gold digger. I don't care how much he makes! I just care that we'll be okay if something happens. We've always been able to communicate through issues in the past, but we seem to be coming to a standstill on this one. Has anyone else had this issue? Is there any compromises I could bring up that I'm not thinking of? tl;dr fiance and i have a good relationship, but can't seem to agree on how to handle money.

AITA thinking of leaving marriage because step-daughter got herself knocked up... Yeah, I know this sounds awful. My (32M) wife's (35F) daughter (16F) recently announced she is pregnant. She claims she doesn't know who the father is. I suspect she actually does and doesn't want to say, for whatever reason. I mean how much unprotected sex is a 16 year old really having? It can't be that hard to narrow it down for goodness sake. Anyway, moving on. She is adamant on keeping the baby. Abortion is out of the question apparently. Wife completely supports her decision and is excited about having her first grand kid. They're both ecstatic. The problem I have with this is: My wife's daughter is not going to be the one to look after this kid. She's still in school and fully intends to go to college. My wife and I will 100% end up looking after it. I am going to be the one paying tens of thousands of dollars to raise this kid. My wife works part time and makes very little money. I don't have a problem with this as it lets her do volunteer work that she enjoys, but it means the financial burden of this kid will be 100% on me. I wanted to have at least one kid with my wife. She's entering her late 30s so it's now or never. I feel like this kid will mean the two of us will never have our own because of both the emotional and financial burden raising it will put on us. I raised my concerns with my wife and her response was expected but disappointing. "This isn't up to you. This is her decision to make. We will support her." I agree it's her decision, but why do I have to support her? As it stands now, I'm thinking of cutting my losses and leaving the marriage if her daughter has this child. I'm not prepared to put off starting my own family for the sake of her daughter, nor am I prepared to pay to raise it. I fully intend to let them know this before the baby is born so they can make an informed decision on whether they can support it. AITA?
