AITA for lighting a match at night and “scaring” my boyfriend’s dad so badly he woke up the whole house?

My boyfriend and I are staying at his parents’ house. It’s been going really well, but his dad is very particular. He has moments every day where he corrects or instructs the other people in the house on how he wants us to behave. I don’t really have a problem with it, but he has a few rules that do make me a little uncomfortable. I don’t need to get into why, but I always get di****ea here...

My wife and I have a two month old daughter, Alicia. We've been having the piercing debate since before she was born.

While we still hadn't made a decision, my wife went for a day ...
