Soylent Pudding posted:AITA for saying a student at my school is a good mom Honestly, it’s pretty awesome that the school was chill about the OP watching the baby - as soon as I hit that point in the story I figured the conflict would be about that. Also speaks pretty highly of the OP that they’d do so and that the student felt comfortable enough with them to ask. It’s a bit of a “you know you’re NTA so why are you asking” sort of deal, but feel-good too.

A shitload of people obviously not the rear end in a top hat have been criticised for not being an rear end in a top hat ENOUGH. Her co-workers are demanding to know why she isn't shaming the slut who dared have a child out of wedlock.

My suspicion is that this was a response to the prevalence of both diarrhea-causing diseases and tuberculosis. A child or adult who'd gotten emaciated from disease did indeed need fattening up. Treating the symptom of thinness, rather than whatever was causing it.

Wikipedia posted:Grove's Tasteless Chill Tonic, which was first sold in 1885, was a fever-remedy made from quinine suspended in a flavored syrup to eliminate the bitter taste. [1] The tasteless chill tonic, which some claimed was not all that tasteless, was an improvement over taking straight quinine for fevers and chills caused by malaria. It contained cinchonine, cinchonidine, reduced iron, with sweet syrup and lemon flavor in a suspension that required shaking before use. [2] Some sources claim that by 1890 more bottles of Grove's Tasteless Chill Tonic were sold than bottles of Coca-Cola.[1] Seems was straight up an anti-malaria drug

It wasn't a specific product but when I was a kid the family doc ordered my dad on a fattening diet because he was getting close to the danger zone.

Also I think we underestimate just how common underrourishment was. Even in WW2 I think most recruits gained 15-30 lbs in basic training just because of the reliable meals.

Treating the symptom of thinness, rather than whatever was causing it. people's diets just used to be terrible, it was very easy for folks to be malnourished and acutely starving. since the 1960s the green revolution and food processing have made calories pretty easy to get, even if proper nutrition is still elusive being able to diet and exercise and stay toned and thin is a sign of wealth now, as is having tanned skin. someone from 1890 looking at a yoked tan hollywood celeb would think "drat, this rich person spends a lot of time doing manual labor outdoors for some reason???"

while the woman may have indeed come from a time where infant mortality rates were much higher, I can't imagine it was ever good etiquette to predict to a stranger their child's imminent death especially at the grocery store context is key, here

AITA for not celebrating my brother's anniversary?quote:My brother married my SIL in May two years ago. They had a very cute and intimate ceremony with my mother, myself, my sister and her parents and sister by a lake. My sister and her sister were the witnesses and I got to hold the rings. They bought special corsages for my mother and her mother. It was absolutely lovely! They did not tell anyone else in our families other than the people who were at the wedding that they were getting married. I am not sure of the reasons why, but it isn't my business so I did not ask.

Funniest option: "My brother called us all rude and disrespectful and basically said that we made it clear that we did not accept his wife or their relationship" is because he got divorced and no one noticed this is a different wife.

It's hilarious because my spouse and I completely forgot about our wedding anniversary last year because of the pandemic and everything else and we didn't realize it until her mother texted us at 8pm on the day.
