AITA for going no-contact with my parents after learning they had lied to me about my allergies all my life?

I am 19 years old and my parents are in their 50s. For as long as I can remember, I have been allergic to several things: Dairy, Wheat/Flour/Gluten, and Legumes. Since I was a young child, my parents have completely kept all of them out of our house. While other kids ate breakfast cereals, I ate fish and a*sorted pickled vegetables for breakfast. While other kids had Lunchables, I had grilled ...

AITA for making my 14 year old fend for himself ?

My son is 14. Up until the last several months I’ve done everything for him. Never made him lift a finger. Then my husband and I had a miracle baby. After I brought her home it became clear that I was not the spring chicken I once was and I was going to need some help. I started making my son do his own laundry. If he asked me if som**hing was clean I asked him whether or not he washed it...

AITA for refusing to share details about my finances with my girlfriend (22F) and her parents?

I (23M) just got out of the Marine Corps and moved back in with my parents to go to school full-time using the GI Bill. My tuition, books, and living stipend are covered, and I’m also serving in the reserves. I’ve always been disciplined with money — I save aggressively, invest, and live way below my means even though I have hobbies like riding my motorcycle and gaming. I’m good with money, an...

AITA for not letting my wife have mothers day after she "canceled" fathers day?

I've been married to my wife for almost 7 years now and we have 2 children, one 6 and the other 4. I love her but she is a bit strange sometimes. She is very heavy anti-corporation/government. One of her big beliefs though is with holidays. She still celebrates holidays with the family (Christmas, Easter, etc) but likes to keep them minimalist and not embrace the "Money" side of things. We...

AITAH for telling a coworker I saw his wife with another man?

I work at a high school. I have 2 coworkers who are married. The husband has been there for a few years and the wife just came to our school last year. She is a 1:1 for a student and he teaches history. The husband is really friendly and outgoing and talks to everyone, the wife not so much. She is not rude or anything, she keeps to herself in the special ed department. She loves the kids she w...

AITA for using the word "miscarry" to beat my wife in scrabble?

For context, my wife and I have always been extremely compet*tive. It's an important part of our relationship, and she has gotten p**sed at me in the past when she perceives I have thrown a game intentionally to spare her the sadness of losing. Tonight as we were playing Scrabble, I had the option to play the word "miscarry" to win the game. From what I could tell, there were no other words I c...

AITA for still not letting my sister into my house after she made me miss daughter’s birth?

My sister (25f) was going to meet her dad (not my dad by the way) for the first time in almost 18/19 yrs and she was really nervous. She asked me to go with her for support. He was staying at some hotel about 30 mins away and the whole ride over there, my sister had my phone to give me directions. My wife was calling me because she’d gone into labor. Then my MIL was calling me too. My sister p...

AITA for calling ourselves vegan?

So we’re both vegan and have been for years. Last year we got a beautiful cat who is the grand baby neither of our parents will ever have. She’s obviously an obligate carnivore and we’ve been feeding her kibble and wet food. Unfortunately, where she came from wasn’t a very good situation and she had horrible teeth when we rescued her. It hasn’t come to a point where she’s painful and doesn’t wa...

We decided from that point onward to take turns spending Christmas with our families.

AITAH for telling my wife that my life would be better without her?

My wife (Anne) and I have been married for 13 years. I am 43, and she is 46. We do not have children. When we first began dating, nobody could make me happy like Anne. She always seemed to know exactly the right thing to say to me when I was down. But over the past decade or so, she has really started to show her true colors, and a lot of what her ex husband said to me about her has begun to ma...

AITA for being "too close" to my Ex-Husband?

Six years ago, I got divorced from my now ex-husband. There was no drama that led to this; we simply realized we were no longer happy or in love, so it would have been a clean break if not for the fact we had a daughter who is now 11. Neither of us wanted to lose full custody of her or miss important moments in her life. She is the most important person in both our lives, and we debated on tryi...
