There's also the story about OP's sister giving her daughter up for adoption when she had a son and not telling the family until after it was done.

I can't find text of the original post, just an update (https://www.reddit.com/r/legaladvice/comments/5ib2k7/kyupdate_laws_surrounding_giving_child_up_for/)quote:Some of you may have seen my posts (1, [2] (https://www.reddit.com/r/legaladvice/comments/5cq0h0/ky_laws_surrounding_giving_child_up_for_adoption/)), or reactions to my posts (1, 2, 3, 4), previously. I must express genuine surprise at the responses my family's story generated. I expected some controversy because such seems to be the nature of things when it comes to decisions regarding parenting. The sheer amount of feedback, however, was unanticipated.

Funky Valentine posted:There's also the story about OP's sister giving her daughter up for adoption when she had a son and not telling the family until after it was done. This is the one I was thinking about that had a happy ending. OP and family were freaking out originally but ended up getting information about the kid and pursuing adoption. DorkusMalorkus posted:I can't find text of the original post, just an update (https://www.reddit.com/r/legaladvice/comments/5ib2k7/kyupdate_laws_surrounding_giving_child_up_for/) I thought this was a different one at first, but it looks like that's it. The original post that's linked there is pretty sparse, but all the details come out in the comments. He and his wife just seemed to totally not get it at all. All they cared about was getting it done before Christmas so it wouldn't be awkward for them, which is just mindboggling on multiple levels. Everything seems to have worked out for the best though and I hope to god they never have any more kids.

AITA for improvising my scene in a play? quote:So this situation played out a couple days ago and I’m still dealing with the aftermath. A buddy of mine put on a small play/production as part of a course he was taking at community college. I’m not in the class, but he asked me to play a pretty small role with a couple lines in one scene. He wrote the play and I honestly thought it was pretty good, and as someone who writes in my own spare time I had a lot of story suggestions for him. In particular I wanted to expand the role of the character I was playing and add some more dialogue to my scene – not because I wanted to steal the spotlight, but I genuinely felt it would improve the play.

What the hell do you talk about in a 4 minute monologue. 4 minutes is a long time to just continually talk.

But that's miles different from what OP did in "taking it upon myself to add improvisation to the scene"...in a 3 to 4 minute monologue during the actual live performance, after explicitly being told ahead of time to stick to the script.

I tend to regard 23andMe as (A) we have always lived in the Panopticon and (B) great way to find out that Grandma cheated. So much buried ordnance there. There's a reason that smart public schools no longer do Punnet squares for parents eye color/family trees/blood types. I don't have a say in the matter, because both my parents already did 23andMe.

Police can subpoena commercial DNA databases, so 23andme falls under the umbrella of "don't talk to the police".

I found out my mom cheated because of 23andme, and that her mom cheated as well lmao I’m sure the government is using the DNA for nefarious purposes but eh. That post definitely feels SPONSORED BY 23ANDME but I gotta agree it is kinda fun to compare and contrast your ancestry and your spouse’s. Also OP shouldn’t be such a big baby and just take his wife’s name like I did. Last name drama is for dipshits.

Arsenic Lupin posted:(B) great way to find out that Grandma cheated. Yup this literally happened in my family lol. Both grandma and grandpa had been dead for a few years, and they were divorced for a few decades anyways. So, no real hard feelings to be had, and my younger aunts had kind of suspected it anyways. But, lol.

My mom is nice enough, but she's not very smart or mentally stable. She's also very afraid of a lot irrational things, like the idea of a random murderer in our small town crawling through my small bathroom window while I'm at work and murdering her, and also strangers in general.
