Someone who has blown up his entire relationship because he has spent that entire relationship trying to undermine his partners giant boundary is probably not someone I would trust to be able to plan and provide longterm care to a troubled animal.

haveblue posted:It sounds like the dog has major behavioral issues so taking care of it and retraining it will be a full-time job. It cannot be in the same house as preteens while those issues remain and it already has a history of biting people so it may be a lost cause :/ He also doesn't really seem to acknowledge that there's anything wrong in how grandpa takes care of the dog. Yes, maybe he's motivated by a deep concern for the dog's wellbeing and is just jumping at the chance to save the dog from a lifetime of neglect, but his reaction to an unhousebroken dog with a history of biting and running loose in the street seems to be more along the lines of "yeah cool dog!!" Trying to foist a living creature onto someone as a surprise present, even if they hadn't explicitly said they don't want it, also doesn't really speak to having a lot of appreciation for its needs beyond being a lifestyle accessory.

The wife pretty much did say that she doesn’t trust her husband to be able to take care of the dog when she didn’t just threaten to leave, but to leave immediately with the children. The implication of describing the dog as untrained and aggressive and talking about taking the children away from the house is that she doesn’t think the husband can/will take care of the dog in any meaningful way.

Oh yeah? Maybe she's actually afraid that the husband would dedicate himself so wholeheartedly to the care and training of the dog that he would neglect his wife and kids! Ever think of that, smart guy?

Check out this winner of a BFF. How do I 24M get my former best friend 25M to stop telling people I slept with his fiancé 25F? quote:My best friend Daniel and I were close. He moved away for a bit for school and came back in the area. When he moved he started dating this girl Nina and they been together well until recently. I always love the stories where the person who is 100% in the wrong makes a play to claim the high road. I abused his hospitality and hosed his fiancee, and now he's not talking to me?!? Hmmph, how very immature! Why can't we handle this like adults. OP is in the comments, doing himself no favors.

DemoneeHo posted:AITA for not including any of the neighbor’s kids into my daycare because of how they acted in the beginning? This is such an obvious self own, like if they just took on some of the kids that lived in their building they'd immediately have pro-daycare allies among the neighbours. People's commitment to pettiness at their own expense always amazes me.

When you go to college you can’t take it with you. And if you don’t do everything we are taking the car away. Wait what do you mean you are getting a job to buy your own car?

I once lived near someone who tried to do that daycare poo poo out of their apartment, I'm not sure if they ever got it rolling bc I never saw kids, but they did put up a sign, a tiny playground in the yard...and then they built this big hideous eyesore of a fence to coral the kids. It was a shared courtyard situation so it hosed up what used to be a nice outdoor area for all the neighbors to hang out in. I get why they'd need the fence but it was seriously like....prison-style. Tiny yard with zero plants and this neglected play equipment, and a giant towering fence. Seeing this unused child jail every day was so loving depressing. Even when they moved away, we all still had to live with that dystopian vista.

Tijuana-A-Go-Go posted:yta what was the point in putting up the notice, all you're doing is antagonising your neighbours. just saying no in person to anyone who asked would have been fine, could have said "sorry we're full" or whatever. explicitly making it about people in her building was a really dumb move and she's just put herself even further down everyone's poo poo-list OP is NTA for a few reasons: - Neighbors left passive aggressive notes on the door about noise (instead of going to the landlord, wonder why...  ), gave her/her clients/their kids dirty looks & acted rude towards them- She puts up a polite flyer saying she's not taking any more kids in unless they're already enrolled & some jackass gets pushy/mad about it when she explains herself - Leads to more stupid notes being left on her door before she even starts her next round of daycare - Everything she did was approved by the landlord, from running the daycare from home to the flyer itself Nobody is entitled to her time or services, especially after what she dealt with - dipshits bit a hand that wasn't even feeding them & now they want to cry about it?  Get. hosed.

More terrible names! AITA My mom wants to name my brother Zaza and it’s loving me up inside quote:I (m17) found out my mom is naming my brother zaza and it breaks my heart that i’m powerless to help him. Everyone has told her this is an awful name and the only runner up is Azrael. She sent an urban dictionary definition as justification. Am I the rear end in a top hat for spending an hour pleading with her to change his name? This one I don't even care about the story, posting it solely for the terrible names. quote:Throwaway because i don’t use Reddit but my friend told me to post here. I 28f Aki have two brothers Akihito 30 and Akio 28. I recently got married to my boyfriend of four years.

OP just had to say, "Wish I could help but I'm legally full-up on the amount of children I can daycare. There's a pretty long wait-list but you're free to sign up for it." Anyone with kids knows that's how every daycare is and only the most difficult of parents will argue with you. But when pressed she decided to poo poo where she sleeps rather than leave it.

AITA for telling my mom she doesn't get to act like the victim when she named me after her late husband behind my dad's back?quote:My mom was married to another guy before she was married to my dad. Her first husband was her childhood best friend, her first and only love until he died, they started dating as teenagers and got married in their 20s and were trying to have kids when he died. They were 28. My mom never loved anyone else again. She met and married my dad. But she never loved him. She married him because she was turned down as a single adoptive parent and because people in her life told her she should find a way to be happy again.

AITA for not letting my sister know the name chosen for my baby?quote:I'm (38f) pregnant with my first, and probably only, child. My sister (36f) is also pregnant but this is her third child and this baby comes several years after her last child who is 8 years old. I struggled with fertility problems for many years. I could not get pregnant despite trying from the age of 24. We underwent numerous tests but no clear reason for this was ever found. We tried taking breaks between trying, we tried fertility medications in recent years and finally, last year, we went through IVF which was successful for us.

Zaza is just a dumb name for a child outside the weed thing but that kid would also end up getting Dracula Flowed by weird Middle Aged Men randomly as they grew up so that might be exciting and confusing for them.
