AreWeDrunkYet posted:That's giving up custody 80% of the time. Wouldn't that mean a judge decided he was unfit or he didn't make an effort for a 50/50 split? I could just do my normal mon-friday routine and then spend the weekend at (mom's)home or dad's home. I'm really glad I didn't have to fully split or alternate my schoolweek.

I had to alternate my school weeks when I was a kid and it loving sucked & also even made studying difficult because both of my parents had vastly different rules about computer usage at a time where getting good at being a computer toucher was setting myself up for success The first moment I could I asked to stay with one parent full time

AITA for not switching a movie to accommodate my son's friend?quote:So my 16-year-old son “Josh” was having a movie night with three friends the other day. One of the boys “Matt” is new, I haven't seen him too many times before so I don't know that much about him except that he's slightly younger than most of my son's friends. Anyway, the movies Josh and the other boys wanted to watch were horror or superhero themed. Apparently Matt tried to come up with some other movie genres/ideas but was shut down. AITA for buying my daughter a wildly inappropriate shirt quote:Yesterday my partner (50m) and I (45f) took our daughter (7f) to the state fair. While waiting on line for a ride I noticed a vendor selling shirts. I remarked to my partner that the one shirt that said "I <3 hot moms" on the back and "I love MILFS" on the front in smaller letters was offered in kids sizes and i found that weird because it's not appropriate at all for a kid to wear. He immediately started laughing and said that was great and that if he had seen that when the boys were like 8 (he has step kids from a prior relationship) he totally would have gotten them one. I asked if he was kidding and really found that appropriate for a small kid to be wearing and he replied yes, still laughing about it. I then mentioned they had a "I love hot dads" in the same sizes and would that be great on Daughter? He got quiet and replied "yes". But went back to how funny it would be for a little boy and laughed about it for a few more minutes and even took a picture of it.

Runcible Cat posted:Suburban Black Ops would be a terrific username. I kinda agree with the dude that it's common courtesy to leave the spot in front of your neighbour's house free, on my street growing up, all the teenagers parked our hoopties at the end of the block in front of a little penninsula with no houses on it, it was like a 45 second walk. That doesn't give you the right to commit crimes, though, and I'd love to watch her insurance company's lawyers play the video of OP trying to do Unconventional Suburban Warfare in court.

AITA for adding my initials to a tattoo I did on my boyfriend.quote:My boyfriend and I do amateur tattoo work on each other and on friends. My boyfriend gave me a sketch of the latest one he wanted and it was pretty intricate and was going to be a lot of work. So I added my initials to it. Just a little CQ added into the art. I didn't think he would see them but he did and he is pissed off at me. He said I broke his trust and he doesn't know if he will let me tattoo him again.

edogawa rando posted:This can't possibly be real. Nah when I was in the final months of my last relationship, my ex got super mad at me because I said I'd have to figure out some alternate arrangement for working from home while his kids were on break. Which, obviously, I meant that I would take my own self somewhere else, or something. But he somehow interpreted it to mean that I was telling him I didn't want his kids in the house. Some people make it a personality trait to get overly defensive about their kids.

Beachcomber posted:While not ideal, this is to be vastly preferred over the reverse. Yes, this is true. Heart's in roughly the right place with regards to the kids, but in my experience it can be pretty detrimental for trying to form other relationships. But I'm definitely not saying to swing way in the other direction to compensate. In conclusion, children are a land of contrasts.

Like all custody things, you only hear about the horrible disasters and you don't hear about semi-functional people doing their best. That said, yes because parents are the ones with lawyers while the kids are stuck with a guardian ad litem, who is generally kind of useless.

The alternative is an even nastier legal battle after their parents split because now it's a tooth and nail struggle to remain in your kids life at all. Or the kid being forcibly stripped away from the people you love by the state. Or parents staying together despite their hostility making their home toxic for them and their kid because otherwise they lose someone they love.

Evil Willow posted:A guy broke up with me because my favorite rapper is Left Eye??? If the ages in this story are correct, Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes died before this woman was born. Which is fine, you are allowed to like old singers. But she also died the year the boyfriend was born, so for him to immediately equate Left Eye with "that crazy woman" is insane.
