AITA for screaming at my husband and his sister to get out of my kitchen?

My husband's sister (38) lives with us and our kids. I am very fed up with her being here because of food issues. Every single time I make food, his sister comes in and 'doctors up' the food I am making to her liking. For example, I made steak and shrimp, and she waited until I left the room to put a full stick of b**ter in my already cooked shrimp. When I returned, she said, 'I'm pretty su...

AITA for refusing to punish or allow my wife to punish our son?

This all started back in March. My son's best friend turned thirteen. In his family, thirteenth birthday is a huge deal. In addition to a ma*sive party (which all four of us were invited to) his parents also took him to Disney World. They invited my son to attend as well. My wife was hesitant to consent to this. She said it was unfair to allow our son to go when our nine year old daughter c...

I also kept one set of jewelry which is the most valuable wether momentarily and/or se...

My Wife Is Always Late So I Lied About My Graduation Time To Ensure She Didn't Miss It

I (27m) have been with my wife (27f) for 8 years. For 5 of those years I was in the military and I developed the habit of being early for everything I do. It is a huge pet p*eve of mine if people are late for things when they could have been on time. If som**hing happens out of your control and you are late then I totally understand. My wife is the type of person who is always late. Through...

AITA for not accommodating my brother's vegan fiancee?

Full disclosure, I do eat meat, eggs, and dairy. That being said I'm lazy and prepping and cooking meat takes more work than I'm willing to do a lot of the time, so I've built up a pretty okay repertoire of vegetarian and vegan meals. That's why I volunteered to cook last night for a small family dinner even though I would normally never. Love my mom to bits but if the first step isn't brownin...

Man Abandons His Wife At A Restaurant For Talking In A Baby-Like, Cringy Manner

Ever since we(27) had a baby, my wife had been talking like a baby herself. Rather than teaching the baby to talk like a person, it's as if my wife's language has become baby-like. She would make noises in between conversations like "Bo-dee-bo-dee-chooop" and "Awowo-fwatata", even when talking with adults. This is especially embarra*sing when I am with her in public places, when she talks like...

My (f21) boyfriend (m24) of almost a year, invited me to dinner with his family. (Mom, dad and his 16yr old brother.) Never met them prior to that.

When it was time for dinner, my bfs dad wanted to pray. ...

AITA for telling my husband his friend is no longer welcome at our house?

So, my husband has this friend, I’ll call him Alex. Alex is one of those people that would bring a guitar to a house party and strum it nonstop. Alex is also one of those people who insists on stopping games in the middle to start political debates, knowing that the rest of us don’t share his far right views. The rest of our friend group has also mentioned this, and for a while he wasn’t invit...

My husband and his family threw a boy baby shower for my daughter and demand I apologize

I (f27) am expecting my first baby with my husband. This is the first grandchild in the family (InLaws) and they said that if the baby's a boy then we'll give him my father InLaw's name (he's d**d due to cancer). I had no problem with that. This happened before we found out the gender of the baby - my husband and his family had me "do things" like attend prayers and do other rituals before ...

Dad Calls Out Son For Not Treating His Girlfriend Properly, Tells Him He Deserves Being Dumped

So my son had a long-distance gf recently for about two years. She was great, a really nice girl and we all loved her welcomed her with open arms. She was flying here constantly to visit him, like a weekend a month and he didn’t lift a finger to go visit her. I tried talking to him about it several times and told him he should really start looking into flying over to her instead of expecting he...

Woman Gets Upset After Her Husband Refused To Name Their Son "John Doe"

So my last name is Doe. It hasn't affected my life much apart from occasionally being called "Dodo" while growing up or friends spelling it "D'Oh" as a joke, and I'm generally pretty neutral about it. My wife is six months pr****nt and wants to name our future son after her grandfather, who d*ed of cancer in September. His name was John. I liked her grandfather, and I know he and my wife wer...
