I know that modern delivery wards slap a RFID-chipped bracelet on the baby pretty much as soon as they are born, and if the baby leaves a room without being signed out alarms go off throughout the floor. I’m sure not every hospital is equipped like that but it was SOP at the two hospitals we used.

Yeah I would guess that RFID tags and closed-circuit security cameras have almost entirely eliminated that. There's probably still some unlikely comedy of errors that could make it happen but we won't know until the kids try 23andMe in a few decades

AITA for not wanting my son to call my wife mom?quote:Today is the the first day of second grade for my (33M)son. Last night after dinner, my wife(30) began to help my son pack his lunch for the first day of school while I got his clothes out, when I came back into the kitchen, they had just finished up and my wife handed the lunch box off to my son who said "thank you mommy." This was the first time my son has ever called her mom, because my wife and I have been married for 7 months but together for 3 years. My son's biological mom passed away when he was just a few months old, and from that moment on I never wanted my son to refer to another woman as "mom" I discussed this with my wife when I realized that we were getting serious and first introduced her to my son, and she said that she understood and would never expect my son to refer to her as mom or anything along the lines of that, and for the past few years my son has only called her by her first name.

Piell posted:AITA for not wanting to pay for my wife's spending money? Yeah it's well known that husbands don't benefit from their wives going to the gym or having hobbies. Dude needs to think real carefully about this- the house and cars are completely covered and all his wife asks in return is a personal budget? A thing extremely common in all kinds of relationships, no matter how much money is involved?

I spent a good chunk of the flight being intensely jealous that I didn't think of that. Even if it was 10am.

What is wrong with these men who are determined to have a second wife who must fulfill the role of being a mother but never be entitled to the title? I would think most families would push too hard in the other direction, trying to force the kids to accept a new mom before they are ready, but here it seems to happen naturally and the dads can’t handle it. “Yes, I know my new wife makes your school lunch and cleans around the house and is emotionally available to you, but you only have only Mother and she’s dead. You will never have another Mother. Now go tell Patricia you’re sorry for making her feel like a part of the family.”

It is a bad look to look like you moved on too callously from a deceased love and allowing the kids to call the new wife "mum" is a public service announcement that you are over your dead wife.

We had our oldest when we were just 20 and 6 years later we had our youngest. Three months after the birth of our youngest my wife died suddenly and unexpectedly. I found out after her passing that she'd had a heart condition that she was never made aware of. I was told to get both my kids tested and both inherited the condition from their mom. That period of my life was traumatic as hell. Luckily, I had so many videos and photos of their mom to share. We also had her dad who was amazing and the best grandpa to the kids. My son remembered his mom. My daughter was too young. But she's heard so much about her mom from her family.

AITA for being upset over my SO’s gift? quote:Almost 2 years ago, I (26F) mentioned to my SO (28M) that one of the many things I enjoy eating is a chocolate cake. Ever since then, every single time he wants to get me something, he gets that exact chocolate cake. I’ve eaten it perhaps 50 times now, sometimes as a whole cake, and I am honestly so sick of it. While I appreciate the effort and thought behind the gift, it makes me feel like he doesn’t really put in effort to find out what other things I like. I feel like the chocolate cake is just an easy option for him since the store is right across the road. I have explicitly mentioned to him that while I really appreciate the gift and thought, I stopped liking chocolate cake a while ago and it would be nice if he made an effort to find out what OTHER things I like, because there are so many other things I enjoy. I have a full list of things HE likes on my phone and I give him a wide range of gifts that he loves all the time. Despite this, he still continually buys me that cake! AITA for being frustrated and feeling like he doesn’t really care? Too late! You said you liked it, now it's officially your favorite thing, absolving me from having to put thought into gifts forever!

Haven't flown Wizz Air in years, but taking cereal bars, sandwiches and fruit through security and on Ryanair flights has never been an issue for me or other passengers. Bringing your own booze is where airlines draw a line. I'd also argue that taking cooked food from the terminal into the plane is a bit trashy, at least on par with taking shoes and socks during the flight or flying in pajamas.

It was surprisingly thoughtful of them, it meant very easy cleanup for the cabin crew.

She stays with us instead of a hotel, and always wants to go to expensive restaurants. She always conveniently forgets her wallet, or domes up with some excuses as to why she can’t pay her share. She has implied that since I make much more money than her, I should be the one to pay (no, not my husband should pay, but me specifically). I do make a fair amount of money, but not so much that I can treat someone every time they come into town. Nonetheless, in the past, I have just paid the bill and asked her to pay me back.
