AITA for only wanting a relationship with my grandson and not his half sister?

I (55F) lost my daughter Amy to an accident 2 years ago. Amy was married to Daniel and they had my grandson Kai together who is now 8. Daniel met his current partner a year after Amy d*ed and they welcomed a baby in May of this year. Ever since the birth of his daughter, Daniel's had an issue with us wanting time with just Kai. Daniel was upset when we didn't go to his and his partners baby...

AITA for telling my mom we haven’t had a good relationship in a long time and I wanted to go live with my dad?

I (16F) used to have a good relationship with my mother. That has since crashed and burned since she dated and married my stepdad “Gary” six years ago. Gary treats his son “Ian” (19M) like he’s the center of the universe and expects my mother to as well, so she does. Anything Ian wants, Ian gets and that usually comes at the expense of me. Ian wanted my room when they moved it? I was forced to...

AITA for not deleting nude photos of a girl I legally own the rights to until she paid me back for all the rent she was supposed to pay.

I worked for a photography company for a while. During this time I met a girl (we'll call B) and we started dating. B and I took a bunch of nude photos of her several times throughout our relationship. She paid me for these photos and signed the rights to me. Eventually we moved into an apartment together and both signed the lease. However she started inviting her friends who would t**sh the...

AITAH for telling my BF he can’t use my vehicle anymore to take his kids to school everyday (more info below)

I (30F) am starting to get frustrated with my (36M) boyfriend for not taking accountability for his own problems. He had a vehicle that he used to drive but beat it into the ground and never gave the vehicle any TLC until we started dating 4 years ago. He drove it with an expired inspection sticker until he got pulled over and an officer told him next time he would get a ticket. The car sat...

My father was a provider to a family of three kids, my mother never had to work. He paid for my sisters ...

I’m the lead teacher in a 2 year old room at a daycare. I have a little girl in my cla*s, Sophie, that has had an issue with biting the past couple days. Sophie is usually very sweet and she’s very intelligent (she’s almost fully potty trained at 28 months old) but she has a pretty severe sp*ech delay and her mom was taken to the hospital by ambulance last weekend and Sophie hasn’t seen her since ...

AITA for not moving back in with my mom and hanging up on her when she called me crying that she missed me and wanted me back?

My dad d*ed when I (17) was 11. My mom dated for a while but nothing serious until she met Dan. Dan's a single dad with two kids (4 and 6) and after dating for almost two years they moved in together three months ago. I was cool with it until two incidents happened in a week. First one was coming home to the kids in my room and my room was t**shed. I'd made my bed before school and they'd pull...

AITA for saying my secret workout routine is depression?

I (25F) had a miscarriage in early January this year. I lost my mother to a completely unexpected heart attack in February. We used to be very very close and her death, coupled with the loss of my child devastated me. I slipped into depression, developed anorexia and lost a huge amount of weight in a very short time. I used to be 165 pounds and now I'm at 120 pounds. I attended my best frie...

I (42F) have been with my boyfriend (33M) for four years, and we’ve lived together for two years. Our lease is up in a week and a half, and I’ve made the decision to move out after I found out that he cheated on me with his best friend. For context, his best friend, “Tina” (34F), and him were roommates before him and I got together and before we all decided to move in together. He and I were ju...

AITA for "forcing my brother and his GF to get an abortion"?

So I'm a 24 year old who moved out of their parents place a couple years back. My parents are terrible people and we're very cruel to me and my brother growing up. I've very much enjoyed the space to myself and it has been the only time in my life I've truly felt safe. My twin brother (Zack ) didn't move out and was also pretty miserable living with my parents. About 8 months ago he asked if he...

AITA for refusing to let my kids see my mother after she sold the home I paid for?

For nearly nine years, I lived in and paid for a home under the agreement that once it was paid off, my mother would transfer the t*tle to me. The home was in her name, but I covered the mortgage, lot rent, and all expenses. I also put my own money into renovations and repairs like new flooring, light fixtures, refinishing cabinets, replacing appliances, and fixing the oven. My mom original...
