Earlier in the year he was angry at me so it meant I was seeing them less than once a month. I got desperate so I offered their nanny money if she would let me spend time with them after school. I expected her to tell my ex straight away but she accepted and things were wonderful until my ex found out.

On the one hand, zero custody, but on the other, he's fine with letting her handle childcare after booting the nanny. I actually can't tell what's going on there. E: Okay yes the dad clearly sucks

AITA for not allowing my kids to close the room doorquote:We have a rule in our family whereby the kids (15F and 13M) are not allowed to close the room doors. The kids spend most of the time in the common study room, whether reading, studying, gaming etc. and their computer screens all face the door. My kids have told me they would like to room door to be closed and feel that their privacy is being violated and they cannot concentrate. However, my wife and I feel that this is a house rule and there should be no secrets between family members.We do not wish for them to spiral down a deep hole of secrets which might be too late when they realise they need help. Furthermore, when they grow up and work in an office, whatever they do on the computer screen will also be visible to their coworkers. My wife and I think this rule is quite fair, but the kids insist otherwise. So AITA? AITA - For giving my husband only 3 days to return my jewelry set that he he gave his brother's wife as a wedding gift? quote:I f36 have always been into jewelry. I used to own of variety of jewelry sets but due to unfortunate circumstances most of them had to go so I could afford rent after I lost my job. My husband never got lucky to land a job since 2013. Thankfully now I have a stable job that gets us by from month to month.

Seems to fit the pattern of someone who has the financial leverage to keep custody of their kids away from their ex and is only interested in using it to punish and control them. I'm guessing that bribing the nanny is considerably cheaper than trying to go up against a well-funded legal team.

Sisal Two-Step posted:AITA for kicking my aunt's husband out of my house and family holiday gathering when he was homophobic? And no mention of how wildly, utterly against any code of human hospitality it is to mortally insult your host in their own home? Even very conservative belief systems tend to have pretty ironclad rules about hospitality. Calling the host a slur in their own home? That poo poo wouldn't fly under loving Sharia law. How can a person even think they'd be welcome after speaking to their host like that. Incredible.

No claim to any ownership and downpaying for his property? Yeah as mentioned in the post you quoted everything else about it is bad, just that one detail I was replying to the other goon on was actually pretty normal (paying less down than you could hypothetically).

The room door one has the most magnificent reply of all time.quote:YTA AITA for wanting to file a restraining order against my future stepdaughter and preventing her from attending mine and her dad's wedding? quote:I (female-American 37) met my fiancè (Male 46 Canadian-Lebanese) 3 years ago. He has a 23yo daughter "Najwa" She was heavily against her parents separating which I had nothing to do with cause I met him 2 years after the separation. Najwa and I seemed to be doing pretty good getting along first but then she started doing things like damaging my car and legal documentations (she damaged my pasport to prevent me from traveling with her dad and threw away my dogs food) her excuse was always that her mom told her to do those things and was pressured by her. I did my best to let things go and she stopped and we sort of started getting along again until her dad and I announced our marriage date. She literally angerily screamed at us at dinner table but the next minute said "congratulation" with huge smile on her face. Her own 34yo, Lebanese-Canadian boyfriend called her "nuts". Yes, definitely, hold on to this prize who wants you to keep accepting his daughter's actual abuse.

You don't actually just pretend to know a stranger, the whole point of going for the hug is to get a couple seconds to say "please play along, there's a creep following me" low enough for the guy to not hear you. Otherwise you're just gonna come off as a creepy stranger and spook them, then you've got a whole cascade failure event of people trying to get away from people trying to get away from people and that's just giving the creeps all the power.

Another classic AITA for not paying to change my father's gravely insulting gravestone? quote:My father and mother had a very bitter marriage towards the end of his life, he had a long running affair with another married co-worker and got her pregnant before he passed. He was planning to leave mom, skip the country and move to Canada to start a new life with her. They had a house picked out and all.
