AITA for telling my dad "Either you pay me a proper wage or I'll quit"?

My dad owns a restaurant and intends to leave it to one of his kids. My sister who is 28 was not interested and went to be a hairdresser and my brother who is 29 is in uni. Meanwhile I (I am 25) went to cook school and graduated 2 years ago. I love to cook, I love to experiment, I love working in the restaurant business despite the hours being very long, so I have been designated as the heir mo...

AITA for telling my girlfriend that her using her accent in public alienates people from her?

My (27M) girlfriend (26F) and I are huge movie buffs, and we often watch classic films together. My GF is a big fan of Katharine Hepburn and recently started imitating her sp*ech patterns and mannerisms, specifically the Transatlantic accent, in public and with me. This accent is an artificial mix of American and British sp*ech patterns taught to upper-class figures historically. When she uses ...

AITA for telling my husband to stop drooling over his bosses wife?

I won't sit here and pretend that I was nice about it because I wasn't. I was very snappy and made my distaste known. His bosses wife and I are both heavily pr****nt. I'm 32 weeks and she is 28 weeks. He just started working for this company about a month ago and has already developed an incredibly strong friendship with his boss so we get invited over there often. I've only personally gone tw...

AITA for telling my sister-in-law to stop “Playing poor” around my kids?

My sister-in-law "Lily" has been close with my family ever since her recent divorce. She’s had a bit of a rough time financially since then, so she’s really embraced the “simple life.” She often talks about how she doesn’t need much, how money is a distraction, and how “having less is freeing.” My kids are 11 and 12, and Lily’s started babysitting them sometimes. But I’ve noticed that after han...

AITAH for laughing at my ex when he asked me to forgive his back child support?

My ex (M62, now) and I (F64, now) got divorced with one infant child in 1987. His support until 1992 was $50/month. He never paid this. He never worked for a pay check, only for cash. In 1992 I went to increase his support to be what he would pay if he earned federal minimum wage. He never paid. Never saw my daughter after she turned 7 in 1993, no cards, calls, nothing. Which is good and le...

AITA for Bringing My Own Food to My Mother-in-Law’s Dinners?

I (29F) have been married to my husband (32M) for four years. His mother (61F) is an amazing cook, and everyone in the family raves about her meals. There’s just one problem I have severe food intolerances. I can’t eat gluten or dairy without getting violently ill. I’m not talking about mild discomfort; I mean full-body pain, nausea, and digestive issues that can last for days. From the beg...

AITA for getting my sister expelled from school

My sister has never been the nicest person, she got in trouble for bullying in elementary school and earlier in middle school, has gotten detention and ISS before, but this is the worst punishment she’s gotten so far. She can be mean to our siblings and cousins to if she wants to. We are in 8th grade now. A few weeks ago, I was playing basketball outside during lunch (which we’re allowed to...

AITA for telling my sister who can't have kids that she does not get to be a part of naming mine and my wife's babies?

My older sister (34F) was born without the reproductive organs required to have a biological child. Because of her condition she also has some other health problems which disqualify her from adopting due to the uncertainty around her quality and length of life. She was aware for most of her life that she couldn't have biological children. That was discovered when she was still very young but t...

AITA I ditched a date after he told me “A woman could never be president”

I went on a date with a guy I had a one night stand with like a month ago. Yes my friends already told me this was a bad idea. The first red flag was when we sat down at the first bar and we ordered drinks then he ordered.. chicken tenders? But didn’t ask if I wanted anything to eat. He ended up taking me to a hookah lounge (what the h**l) and that’s when politics came up. He told me he did...

AITA for making my MIL believe I was having an affair?

I (27f) and my husband (26m) are big gaming addicts. Our parents hate that we played games, and we have got in multiple fights as children and adults over our hobby. It is a sore subject in our family, and we have opted to lie and say we are outside if anyone asks what we are doing. We both work from home, and right after work we proceed to play games until midnight. None of us like leaving the...

AITA for going off on my neighbor after he made r***st comments about my adopted son?

So, I (32F) have two kids: my biological son, Ethan (8), and my adopted son, Malik (7). Malik is Black, and we've had him in our family since he was 3. We live in a mostly white neighborhood, but we’ve always felt welcomed by everyone, and our neighbors have been really supportive of both my kids. Except for Steve (45M), the guy who lives two houses down from us. Over the past year or so, he’s ...
