- r/AmITheA**hole When a mother yells at a worker, does that automatically make her a Karen? In today's episode, OP gets in trouble at school for a completely bogus reason, so her mom comes to the school to yell at the teachers for being so stupid and backwards with their rules. Is this an instance where being a Karen is justified? If you like this video, subscribe for more daily Reddit content!

I wouldn't marry a dude who was comfortable with seeing his MOTHER in MY wedding dress. Creepy.
Right weird vibes all around
lol
WTF?
I fucking agree. I'm not the type to wanna get married anymore but if my future husband let his mom or sister or whoever else try my dress or take it without my permission I'd be very pissed. And he also left the dress baried under the groceries ruining the dress even more. There's a reason why you store wedding dresses and other delicate clothing up right in a special bag!
@@varinia1208
Girl, same. I refuse to get married. To me, the entire thing is archaic and creepy. At least from the woman's point of view. The whole father walking the daughter down the aisle "to give her away" freaks me out. I am not a possession or a thing to be given away thats owned by my father. Fuck that. I love my dad, but he's my dad, not my keeper.
Yeah that story with the wedding dress, she needs to call the wedding off and leave the fiance, that straight up shows how they ALL will treat her for the rest of the marriage, but probably worse
If they boundary stomp that bad before they're even married, what's going to happen when they have kids?
Nope. I would totally peace out of that relationship.
She can do better wow
Dude probably "has no balls" anyway. If he can't back up his to be wife against his mommy, good luck protecting her from physical harm, if need be.
This story was on a news sight a while ago. The wedding was post poned.
Who the F tries on someone else's wedding dress, and what fiancee hand delivers it to be tried on?! Bruh, there had to have been red flags before this incident
PLEASE DO NOT marry this man. His mama will always come first and none of them respect you. You will live a miserable life if you stay.
So fun fact, this what the Chinese call 'mom boy'. ćŠćź. Basically a male who listens to everything their mom say. Example, my mom said this so you have to do this. My mom says you can't do that so you can't do it. My mom says I don't need to do this so you can't force me to it. My mom says she wants to try it out so what is the deal? You should respect the elder etc. Any resemblance?
@@user-ls1iy8zq9x Yes! Same thing here, we call it a "mama's boy". I hope she runs far away from him.
@@yanazbobanaz agree, cause a mam's boy is always only stand by the mother and never the wife.
@@user-ls1iy8zq9x Yup. That is exactly what we have. We call them âMamaâs Boysâ.
On one hand, there are guys who simply care and love for their mom, but also love their wives. On the extreme cases, you have what is essentially a manchild still drinking from their momâs metaphorical tit at the age of... adult.
I LOVED the first story and how OP described it as a pillow war. Even if his wife got mad about it, I can't help but think of how hillariously wholesome it sounds.
What number Prime are you and what prime came before you
If inwas that dudes wife i wouldn't be mad at all. If start laughing cause I thought that was hilarious
All is fair in love and pillow warđ
Right! Lol
If I was in that position I would simply say game on and start chucking pillows at him, a nice wholesome pillow fight. đ

The last story grinds my gears. This is such a double standard that man are "sensitive" when they want to express that someone hurt their feelings. It's so wrong. I'm a woman, and I'm grossed out by some of the sexism men face in this department.
Preach!!! The wife literally said to ignore the insult! When women aren't expected to do that?! MEN. ARE. HUMAN. TOO.

@ I am so sorry that happened. You don't deserve to feel like you can't speak up. I know where you are coming from, and just know that I absolutely think that you are strong and amazing.
@ I'm so sorry you had to go through all that! I find it very brave of you to share your life story. I wish you all the best on your journey to help, I really hope you can get the help you need. I admire that you want to use your story to help others. Let's fight for equality together! Which so very much includes men being able to be humans with emotions and feelings and access to psychological help.
@ Wow I am so sorry this happened to you. Tell someone, anyone. The Main Stream Media is full of lies don't listen to any of the shit they spew. Tell the police its never too late.
In regards to the wedding dress, I stand by what reddit user MyBoldestStoke said:
"I havenât seen this comment yet so Iâm going to add it. I worked in bridal for 5 years. I donât even believe they tried it on. This was so much worse.
I can picture the hyenas laughing maniacally as they both pulled from either side. They destroyed that dress intentionally. No question.
Bridal gowns (even on the cheaper end!) have a much sturdier construction than normal dresses. Fabric and straps get stretched out over prolonged use, but mostly time ...to be stretched out after just a few minutes of TWO fittings?? They were not even attempting to be careful. Our samples were tried on by tens of ppl. Popular gowns possibly in the 100âs. We even modeled them in fashion shows. Displayed in the windows and baked in the sun. We have limited sizes for samples and most were absolutely tried on by ppl 2-3 sizes bigger and pulled taught with all my strength so the bride could âget an ideaâ of what it would look like were she to order it in her size. A good cleaning and a few quick mends to any tattered lace /hanging beadwork and the majority of our samples were sold to brides w/time or budgeting constraints. Being stretched out after just a few mins screams to me of exaggerated physical distress to the fabric.
I promise you they were giddy with glee the entire time. Are we to believe your fiancé was completely clueless during this entire event?? My money is on he has no choice but to gaslight you -lest he reveal what a genuine A-H he is. Also, sooo NTA. I wish you good things and a future filled with happiness and respect"
Oh shit. They intentionally destroyed that dress? Wow. She should call off the wedding
Can you post a link to the story?
@@samalvarez8776 As a seamstress myself, while I've never worked with bridal dress, this logic DOES make sense. You can't just have a dress for fitting that is going to break after one or two people. You have to SERIOUSLY go out of your way to mess up a dress that is structured to last until bought.
Also, what people might want to consider in the dress story, isn't about the damage to the dress itself. Its OPs fiancé's action. He went against her back, and he himself didn't treat the dress with respect. Dude literally put groceries on top of it. That's a ducked up thing to do
Should dump the guy for the mere fact that he's obviously a mama's boy.
About that headphone story; that father really made me mad. "It teaches him that life isn't fair." Yeah life isn't fair, but you can't just lay down and let others above you make it even more so. Sometimes you need to stand up for yourself and say that I am not surrendering to your bs. He was scammed, and you need to teach your kid the lesson to fight back if you are being scammed. It just sounds like to me that the father didn't want to take care of the situation.
I whole heartily agree with this
The more you tell your kid life is fair, the more the kid will become upset when the kid realizes it isn't.
"Life isn't fair" is only when: you born poor, didn't won a lottery, etc.
The father have a mentality of a doormat.
@@wackyanimations3326 And when did I ever say that he should tell his kid life is fair.
@@holynarwhale8729 I didn't say that? I was agreeing with you..?
Why doesnât the mother get a credit card and let her son and daughter in law use it? đ€đ
Wouldn't it be messed up if she already did!? Dad wouldn't be happy with that surprise!
Because the mother doesnât want to use her own money for it
Dad probably said no lol.
@@SailorMyaI agree. That would be the logical thing would be to use hers since she seems to see no problem with it. They probably already maxed hers out too
Probably can't cause of her low credit score
Both the daughter and mother were equally the AH in that last story. If you do a nasty, unkind thing, then you've done a nasty, unkind thing. Age shouldn't give the daughter any unjust leniency.
Neither should anything else The wife shouldâve backed up her husband and called her daughter out for her bs not show leniency
Sheâs 15 she can handle a calpback
My (19 year old) niece pulled that crap on me, she's got a bit of a mouth on her. She got a fifteen second lecture on the fact that her quarter-inch-deep foundation does not match her skin tone, and her "healthy" lifestyle has given her a skin tone I can only describe as Naples yellow.
I was advised I needed to apologize, to which I retorted one might be forthcoming after the "fat old Boomer" comment. As to how that applies to a fifty year old, 170 pound person is another question. Her uncle is not a particularly tolerant person when it comes to personal insults.
Yeah that was extremely uncalled for by your daughter. Imo dismissing anyone with a "boomer" is just flat-out disrespectful.
Sorry misread that, it's your niece. Still stands though.
âHard for older women to find a guy.â Older woman, child free sounds like a catch to me
Mommy gf best gf
Too bad they still hold the standards as if they were still 18 - and want someone whom still makes twice as much as them, is physically fit as a fettle like a 16 year old hitting the gym likes its their life's work, has any education that is greater than theirs, and wants to live their life under THEIR thumb with no excuses or room for negotiations.
They are single cause they refuse to lower any form of standards on their own ends. That is why they think it is so hard. Especially when they refuse to date/merry down - and always want someone of their own age whom is a 9 or a 10 because "They are still worth it." when most older men whom do fit their needs can have ANYONE they want. And will more than likely date younger - more attractive women whom still have good breeding abilities with no health risks to the child due to age. (The older a woman gets, the harder it is to start a family) but they will stick their nose up to give a nice Young 20 year old man a chance; even if he would KILL to be with them - especially if they are still moderately attractive. (Like a 5)
This went on a lot longer than intended...but they are alone by their own work; the market is totally open for them - it is NOT HARD for an older woman to find a guy. If they use that excuse - you should ask them about their STANDARDS and what they are hunting for. Guarantee you - its of such a limited market that they are literally handicapping themselves. Which is hilarious in my opinion.
Ah yes the pmilf hunter.
@@ichsagnix4127 whatâs the p stand for?
@@shadowfang269 Commonly middle-aged women have had kids, that's why you call them milf, but you are talking of middle-aged women who haven't had kids but could *p* otentially have kids.
As a wife, that women's comments about her husband are horrible. A wife should be building up her husband, not tearing him down. Her agreements and comments with her daughter were hurtful and her response to his feelings were awful. This is why men don't want to talk about how they feel when we hurt them because we treat them as a joke. If its against women, yeah we'd get upset with the men but if women upset men, they get laughed at by both women and other men. If our society is so focused on mental health then that needs to include women AND men and just treat each other better. Men are not unfeeling robots so stop with the toxicity.
100% agree with your comment.
i like that i heard this story because it opened my eyes a bit and reminded me to remember that my dad has feelings too... sometimes we joke about him and he never seems bothered but this changed my views on it a bit ..

Man that wedding dress is wrecked not only did they wear it. But the fiancĂ© didnât care enough and put grocery bags on top of it!!!! Didnât even care to put it in the backseat by itself.
Edit: people Chris is a troll he kindly bowed out. Please donât @ him.
I would reconsider even marrying that person because he let his whole family wear op's dress which was meant for a special day. And they all stretched out any guarantee it was intentional they knew they probably couldnt fit the dress but yet they wanted to assert dominance over op. I would say forget the dress I would be leaving.
@@barbarastorball2117 I would be leaving to
@Chris George itâs not fully the dress problem. He didnât respect her enough to ask. And then he didnât treat her object right. Sending up two red flags. And then the stepmother also didnât care about her feelings sending up another red flag.
@Chris George itâs not about the dress, the issue here is that he didnât care enough to defend her in anyway, or to care enough about her feelings. If he truly loved her he wouldnât have left with the dress in the first place, at least without asking her first.
I would be so passed if u was getting married i would blow up on all of them if they had done that too mt wedding dress. Especiallg if my fiance was just letting it happen and didn't tell them off or even and just brushed it off ad " no big deal". I know that men don't always understand exactly what we go through or what werer thinking but damn ITS OUR WEDDING DAY!!!! Hes gonna know I've been thinking of it since I was little and that if anything threatened it I would be pissed. I would confront him and his sister and mom. If all of them still refused to pay for a new one and didn't feel as if they did anything wrong. I wouldn't just postpone I would cancel the wedding all together and move back in with my parents. If someone really loves someone they are going to stand up for what matters to them even if it doesn't matter to the other person. Ridiculous. So not the butthole OP. youre finance and his entire family sound like real tool bags
OP:
- Is Female
- From a very traditional Indian Family
- Leaves India(?) to Study in the UK/US (Or any other Western Country)
Me, an Indian Male: Shivers to the core and says "I know where this is going..."
I'm so happy I live in the UK and my parents are super lax!
Could've written the exact same thing (except that I don't live the UK XD)
Indian guy are so handsome.. jst sayin -
(Wait the girls are so pretty too. Im jealous..)
The fact that the op is even questioning themself over the credit card is crazy hell no are they the a/hole that is just plain crazy
That's the result of guilt tripping. It's really a shameful thing to do.
When the majority of the people involved are opposed to your side, its understandable that she would question herself and her dad. Its gotta feel like gaslighting when something seems clearly wrong, but everyone around you contradicts you.
I'm glad they posted their story online, having a couple dozen anonymous folks tell them they're not crazy is probably just what they need.
@@coreylemon good thing I'm incaple of feeling guilt
@@AC-so6up careful, one of the biggest things they tell you in order to avoid being "mind controlled", i.e. gaslighting and shit like that, is to believe that it can happen to you. you make yourself more vulnerable saying it won't happen to you. although, gaslighting in particular probably wouldn't work anyway if you have strong enough values, that sort of thing is hit-or-miss
I donât understand how people feel entitled to other peopleâs things theyâve worked or saved for. I donât care if family or not. If itâs not yours, it isnât.
The dress story: cancel the wedding and sue the mil for the cost of the dress plus emotional damage
Little over the top, Jesus i pitty the person your with.
You can't exactly prove that they did try on the dress. the best action is to just cancel the wedding, and tell everyone why you cancelled.
@@saikikusu345 even if they didn't try on the dress, they were responsible for ruining it. still reason enough to sue
@@alexderksen1213 i would not hesitate to sue or at least demand payment for the dress and then cancel the wedding if someone destroyed my dress. those dresses can cost thousands, and the fiance didn't respect his lady
Emotional damages?! Wtf is wrong with you? For ruining a dress you're gonna sue someone for emotional damages? You must be ridiculously emotionally fragile.
I love how the mom in the last story says she âoutgrewâ her mean and petty attitude while at the same time implying that her husband is sensitive and refusing to acknowledge his feelings are valid. Yup, peak maturity here.
I mean, she married him.
The dad who was called "ugly" should absolutely address that with his daughter. His wife and daughter are showing their superficiality and disregard for someone else's feelings, and that's a shitty way to act. I also find it interesting that he essentially said his wife looks as great as she did they day they met. I've been married for 20 years, and I also see my wife as beautiful and youthful as the day we met 23 years ago. Intellectually, I know she looks older. I know she's not the same as she was then. It doesn't matter. This guy sounds like he's the same.
Ikr? The wife claims to have gotten over her superficiality but it seems to me that she just stopped being an asshole because it'll make her seem like an asshole and immature. Doesn't seem like she grew at all as a person. Also I'm 19 now so I was a 15 yo not too long ago and even though I had superficial ideas I can guarantee that I wouldn't call people ugly.
Well the wife was right. He asked for it! What was the girl supposed to answer? And I don't see anything wrong with what she said first about not wanting to date someone old, bald and chubby. I don't know any teen girls who'd want that. That's isn't even superficial, that's just normal. Unless the father dreams of finding a new wife younger than 20yo, he had no reason to get offended by that and start escalating. And the thing about double standards? Women are expected to use countless of hours to improve and take care about their looks, so of course it's going to show at some point. It would be a bit different thing to insult somebody's looks when they use so much time trying to improve them.
I feel like that one is really context sensitive. I definitely agree with the general consensus on this particular one. It really depends on what kind of tone the daughter was using, and the whole âThere was no JK followingâ definitely implies it was not entirely in good spirits.
Iâd think it was hilarious. I am in fact, short, fat, and bald. I love when I and even others poke fun at me at my expense, again, depending on context. However it will still irritate me if people are making jabs strictly to be hurtful. Thereâs no need for that sort of stuff.
@@Juubith95 ahh yes superstitious buttholes , stop making women that are actually good look bad
@@Juubith95 Honestly?? What if this man had depression his entire life?? What if he's struggled with his image for years and this was the straw that broke the camels back? Fuck anyone, especially yourself, for talking down about another human being. Absolutely fucking disgusting.
Men have feelings too. Stop being part of the problem.
For the first story poor OP, honestly if that happened with me I would cancel the whole wedding. If I bought my own wedding dress they have no permission to try it on and if I didn't wanna show them then my fiance shouldn't have showed them without my permission. How could he do that without letting his fiance know?
Same. Would dump the guy since he let his family control him. Would rather have a guy who stands up to his family and tells them no. Like why did he think it be ok for both his sis and mom to try on the dress?! It very expensive and of course it not going to fit them!
Shiny spines are sexy! He showed her exactly who he was, and so did MIL and SIL.

In that arranged marriage story, OP has mentioned that her parents had already given half the dowry (which is very bad), this means that her parents convinced the "was to be future husband"s family that she is going to accept the wedding and this encouraged the guy to propose. I think here, OP's parents, cousins and siblings are the biggest A-holes. Without OP's consent, they fixed her marriage and put her in a very stressful situation. OP is not the A-hole and neither are the "was to be future husband"s family or the "was to be future husband".
I'm almost in tears for the stupidest reason: hearing that the credit card OP's dad stuck up for her. I wish I had a dad who stuck up for me instead of throwing me under the bus. Also, she should report her brother and SIL for attempted CC fraud. Have it on file for the inevitable identity theft attempts. If her card has been out of her sight for even a moment around her colluding mother, she NEEDS to watch the statements like a hawk.
@VINEET SRIKANTH their dad might be not alive...
@VINEET SRIKANTH not all relationships between parents and children should be mended, some are better off being broken off. We donât know the full extent of what happened but my guess is that this personâs father is obviously not a true parent if theyâre willing to throw their children under the bus. Sometimes itâs better to have a broken relationship with a family member than a toxic one.
You and me have something in common, crappy fatherâs. They might be a our fatherâs but they sure as hell ainât or âdaddiesâ. My point is that we canât choose our fatherâs but we can choose our father figures. Iâve got 2 people that have been more of a father to me than my own ever was. I trust them with my life and I highly value their opinions when things go sideways. My advice to you my friend is to find someone like that. A person that will see you at your best and at your worse and actually still give a damn about you and encourage you to succeed and will even help you succeed. As long as you got someone like that in your corner then youâll be just fine.
The issue with those school prize things is that unless you pitch a fit, theyâre not going to give anyone prizes. Except maybe erasers and pencils or something, but thatâs a hard maybe. This isnât a new thing because of the pandemic, itâs what theyâve always done.
Well they didn't give anyone anything they are begging for donations even though they are only doing 1/5 of there jobs the school is normally open 5 days a week they are open 1 day a week and not doing any online classes not checking the kids work and just marking them down as doing it of they say they are doing it and plus they are getting the kids hopes up and pulling it away from them for no real reason other than them trying to scam donations by getting the kids excited about the prizes and they'll be nagging their parents for 4 days a week seeing as they aren't even at school đ
Yeah not even providing online learning. The teachers are still getting paid and the school just wants additional money. They are open on Mondays so they still get a budget. Its morally and ethically wrong. Itâs also illegal, itâs a public school with a public fundraiser
That so called online learning will never fly in higher learning. This actually scares me for the future of these kids.
I agree... There's also this tiny little detail about fundraising like that, it's very VERY close to chain letters which are illegal. Asking for funds and rewarding a level down (or stiffing them) is unethical, illegal, and just an all-around dirty scam technique as old as the concept of money.
By the sounds of its they pulled the "lets be super vague on what needs to be done to get the prizes" technique... I have seen this on the ones my kids get... Plus they keep the "good" prizes behind goals that are next to impossible... They are such a scam and I don't get why schools don't see this... The product they sell is garbage too...
To Karen, or not to Karen, that is the question.
Yes, that is a great question because it isnât a question but THE question.(:

How would you Karen?
Whenever I think of a movie about Karens I like to think of Jaws but instead of a shark its a Karen and instead of the ocean its a supermarket. A lovely movie it would make.
School headphones story. That sounds quite similar to a Pyramid selling scheme
Sounds like, it is a pyramid scheme. The next step would be the school to off the proxy donors to get more donors. It is really bad.
Yeh - I'd have some *_serious_* questions about any school that was begging for donations as often, and in such high volume, as that.
I've got a pretty strong _suspicion_ about what type of school it might be, but don't wanna commit to it by typing it out...
my elementary school used to do these all the time. they would hold assemblies about it and try to guilt trip the kids into signing up for them.
Mari same, they would even still give you the papers to sell product when you said no. âYou donât want to sell candy? Well letâs shove some papers at you still!â
God, i hated those things. After the fifth year of doing the same fundraiser for the same prizes in the same neigborhood I didnt try anymore, Id feel bad yeah but there was easily 50 other kids in the same neighbor doing this and I hate bugging people who dont want go be bothered. And it really becomes a bother when every year so many students knock on your door trying to sell you the same thing over and over.
That school system sounds really questionable. Sounds like a big scam.
About that marriage story, you get home find someone whom you've never met before saying you WILL marry me, it doesn't matter if the guy was in on it or not, OP cannot be blamed for the reaction to the surprise, yes it could've been handled better but don't think it is fair to blame OP for a totally natural reaction, I know a dude who had the exact same scenario some other place on earth where this shit can happen, he is still married and miserable because he did not want to his family embarrassment

AITA Users: MASSIVE RED FLAGS EVERYWHERE, PLAY STUPID GAMES, WIN STUPID PRIZES
I mean the whole subreddit is basically letting the internet justify their action but you made a very accurate point
I meant AITA is magnet to those you said.
If it isn't one then it's probably wouldn't be there
It sorta sucks in some cases is because information has been withheld. My friend submitted an AITA but the rules on the subreddit say 'no mention of violence.' She even double checked with a mod. Which means he couldn't say her sister was super physically abusive and threatened to kill their cat. Literally that week my friend had to go to a hotel for the weekend because her sister beat the crap out of her. Everyone called my friend the asshole for wanting her mum to choose them over her abusive sister.
@@JadeAnnabelArt I remember where a guy got YTA because he doesn't want to forgive his mom who cheating on OP's father and made the father almost kill himself in depression. OP's mother die left a diary and letter specifically for OP (the content should be something of "how much I love and missed you OP"), and OP burn it because he hate her.
And my favorite of how low they can be is when a poor 14 yo can't pay tips (in America) for delivery for a pizza for dinner got ESH. And literally says "you moneyless people should just go starving if you doesn't want to pay for the tips"
I mean sometimes their correct. Like and example would be my ex cheated on me 5 times and apologizes constantly but keeps doing it.
The brother and sister in law begging for OPs credit reminded me of something... I was married to an addict, long story short I took the kids and left him and he passed away. I was left a house that we owned with a TON of equity. My brother had me hire his BFF (who was a realtor) to put my house on the market to square the debt and maybe give me and my 3 kids a nest egg. Well, the realtor told my brother how much I was to make in the sale of the house and my brother saw dollar signs. He asked me for loans and asked my parents to work on me to give him loans. Yeah, letâs leave your little sister and her 3 kids in the dust to pay off your debt. We all told him to go pound sand. I feel for OP because the momâs support was totally lacking.
In the final story the wife has a double standard that women can be sensitive and it is okay for women to point out the flaws in men but not okay for the opposite to happen
And a hypocrites cause if u point out her flaws she would throw a bitch fit
Don't forget making fun of men and their height, that they won't date someone shorter than 5'9
@@madisonh.2992 well all that matters about your man is you like him and I hope that people could find someone like you that loves them just the way they are

Look, it's shallow and rude to make fun of someone's looks and definitely not a good thing. But it is not hypocritical here.

The Karen meme is a double edge sword, it's fun to hear all the Karen stories but apparently now everytime a woman stands up for herself or her kids she's a Karen
Even if it's the worker who's actually in the wrong
While that may be the case, you do have to admit that real "Karens" get real pissy about being called out now. It gives a way to call them out on their behavior.
Exactly. With that story, I was waiting for the Karen. She never arrived, I just heard somebody defending her son. Good for her.
Exactly. People need to learn the difference. Karens / Dinklebergs (male Karens) are entitled, and demand things they don't deserve.
Protecting\defending your kids is different as that is literally a parents job.
The problem is that real Karens are distorting the definition of the word to include non-Karens, trying to make it into a generic insult so they can mask their bad behavior with numbers.
It doesnât really matter if the guy was misled on OPs wishes or not. He didnât ask HER how she felt. Itâs 2020, and a 30 year old man is still looking to a girlâs PARENTS for the go ahead to pursue her. You mean to tell me he didnât get the hint when her family talked about how sheâd been living in the US for university up until that point that perhaps she wanted to step away from tradition? Heâs either dumb as hell, or doesnât give a damn about her feelings.
He also took money from her parents to marry her . Even the ring wasn't bought by him . No way in world that he is dumb and got no hint.
Not to mention is sending OP hate messages. OP is not an AH either way!
"So what have you accomplished in your life so far?"

"Life isn't fair" isn't an excuse to not be fair. You're a human, not a semi-random string of events.
i love this comment. it put into words what i couldnt
The last story
I kinda agree with OP about not punishing the daughter. For now. Idk about their relationship, but for me as a teenager dad's serious face and the question "Could you sit down for a moment?" made it clear to me that I had screwed up big time. Like, when my easy-going dad is serious, I am just terrified and will remember it without a real punishment. If the daughter makes similar comments again, she does deserve a proper punishment.
The whole "You're round and bald" thing is okay enough, because that is the truth. If that's all that she said, then I could understand everyone being as lax about it as they were, because that's not really an insult, its just an uncomfortable truth.
Its the "I don't want to end up like mom stuck with a man like you" thing that deserves the punishment. That's just such a fucked thing to say to someone, especially your own parent. He could spend the next year of his life getting in shape to feel better about himself, but I guarantee those words will still be a scar for him because his partner didn't even have the heart to disagree.
I totally disagree. He started off by saying it was no big deal. Apparently it's a huge deal to him. Among other things, they have taught their daughter to be honest and truthful. That's all she was doing. She's 15 years old. He's a grown ass man. He is the one acting childish. At 15, I wouldn't want a short, round, hairless boyfriend. Dad needs to realize this and get over himself. If his wife still adores him, that's all that matters (or should matter), not his daughters opinion. He needs to get out of his feelings and emotions. SMDH.
Yea, it's a one time thing. That's a warning. If she goes and does it again, that's when punishments need to happen.
@@ireneburke1732 I think that it's also about how the daughter talks to other people. Teenagers are rude sometimes and that's understandable, but teaching them to be more tactful is important. Just being brutally honest at all times can land a person into some hot water.
Of course this all depends on how OP approaches the topic with his daughter. Just talking about his feelings won't lead anywhere.
@@ireneburke1732 You sound hella entitled and rude with your double standards. Stay single please đ
My dad was a master of his art; being compared to Houdini. Due his skill in disappearing.
Dude SAMEE
I guess our dads must have went to the same training. His disappearing act was absurdly good.
Bro same he dissapeared for 3yrs now
This isnât funny at all
My dads act wasnt as impressive. To make his magic work, he needed the special ingredients: 2% milk and cigarettes.
The credit card story OP, your mum, brother and SIL are trying their best to manipulate you and they will probably spend, spend and spend to the point they will put you into thousands of pounds of debt. Your dad seems like a rational person that actually respects your rights but your mum and your other immediate family are acting like you donât matter and think you are only a goddamn credit card.
That's probably why their indebt themselves. They think a credit card is free money that they never have to pay back yet now there unable to get one they found someone who has one but is being selfish in their eyes to not give it up. I like the dad who stood up for op in saying no it kicked the mom out of her own house.
I think they wouldn't be qualified for any of it
Good point, but they still try even AFTER HE KICKED OUT HIS OWN WIFE! Either there completely idiots or desperate
@@kervinsantos5808 tenacious idiots
Luckily the dad is actually rational and rightfully told them to fk off that is OPâs money and she shouldnât have to nor be obligated to give it off to anyone if she doesnât want to
13:35 nononononono! You dont propose to someone you just met. Thats not a thing you do
In cultures with arranged marriages that is a thing people do.
It is in many cultures where marriages are arranged. This would not be an issue if both parties had agreed
As a 1st-gen Indian American, that sounds less cringy than what happened with my parents (an arranged marriage). They had a falling out after a few dates and took a break. A few weeks later they randomly hang out and my father said he's found a "good partner" to propose to. My mom, genuinely happy for him said "Oh ok great, congrats! Who are you going to marry?". And then he responded, "Well... uhh... you... I thought?"

There's a limit as to how young you can learn that lesson that life isn't fair there is such a thing is too early to learn that lesson. Teaching a child that lesson prematurely could result in them becoming extremely cynical and generally hating life and people
Can confirm
What more, in this case, doing nothing would not result in the child learning life isn't fair - it would rather result in him learning people who scam others get away with it.
There's also the point that life may not be fair, but you don't necessarily have to take it lying down. I'm reminded of one critique of the recent live action Cinderella film where she is encouraged to"be kind" and the critic is shouting " 'be kinda' does not mean 'be a doormat'!"

If this fiancĂ© canât take care of a dress, imagine if they had a kid
A few years ago, a "rich" relative of ours demanded to postpone my brother's funeral, who was a college professor, so she and her family can attend. The whole department declared a class suspension so everybody can pay final respects to my brother. She made a fit when she found out the funeral continued without them. BTW my aunt never liked my brother because he always calls her out EVERY TIME she's acting like she's entitled of EVERYTHING and I don't see any reason why she wanted to attend... Unless she wanted to brag about how much money they can make đ€Ł
I'm sorry for your loss. That's really neat that they gave his students a chance to pay their respects as well.
She should leave that fiance, my god, imagine being a part of that family...
The woman's hair holds the secrets of our own oceans
It looks like a butt, honestly.
Theres a huge diffrence between being a karen because you're a jerk and standing up for your own kid, theres a saying in our family "shy kids get nothing" if OP wasn't gonna stand up and say something the school were going to keep getting away with providing subpar schooling and lying to the children. Good on her
I would be livid if my mother in law and sister in law did that to my wedding dress too, totally understanding
While I have no experience with Indian culture, I do have experience with attempts at arranged marriages by very controlling parents. I will lay odds that the guy had NO idea that OP wasn't interested in marriage and the whole thing was devastating to him... All because of A-hole parents. I firmly believe OP did the right thing in blowing up over it because the guy needed to be shocked into the modern age where women have hopes, dreams, and desires that don't involve relationships. That guy will never be put on the spot like that again by his parents and will think long and hard about the whats, hows, and whens what he wants instead of what his parents try to put into his head.

Responding to the Wedding Dress Story: SMALL CLAIMS COURT!!! They owe you every cent for that dress, including all previous alterations. That was so shady.
Wth! They had no right to try on her dress!
In today's episode of rSlash, we have a bunch of people groomed to behave a certain way in order to please others. When they "act up" and start thinking for themselves, decide they don't want to let other people take advantage of them, their families/friends turn on them, causing them to ask themselves - and the Internet - that age-old question: AM I THE ASSHOLE?
The last story about the daughter calling the dad ugly The mom says that she grew out of that materialistic attitude well maybe that's because her parents guided her through that. But a question that considering she doesn't understand why she should have disciplined her daughter for saying something so cruel and why she shouldn't have backed her husband up. That is some disgusting behavior from the daughter and the mom unfortunately the daughter's going to end up entitled she's a future Karen in the making
I like the "I don't have much knowledge of finances" and then OP goes on to talk about how responsible she is with her finances.
Is it entitled to want your child to have a decent education even during a pandemic? No! There are multiple resources available for online learning and even if they didnât have the meetings they could at least email work to the parents or maybe *use compass.*
**Reads title**
Me: *DuH*
Edit: Op is not the @$$hole in the story soooooo...
Nice, they are having pillow fights in adulthood, that ain't common
OP could use some reassurance from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2: "When you're ugly, and someone loves you, you know they love you for who you are. Beautiful people never know who to trust."
That school might have been running a scam so that they keep or resell the prises.
I would CANCEL that wedding!!!!
The 2nd story title makes it sound worse than it is, for a second I thought it was going to be someone who ended up "losing it" and then demanding a new one, I'm very happy that it turned out the way it did.
I think there is an update on the wedding dress story. I think she did end up breaking off the engagement because she realized that her fiancé would let mil meddle in the marriage with out any consequences. Might want to find the update to this story for a future "r/update"
Story 3: NTA
What are they smoking, to think anyone would give up their credit card for them to use. đ

You never, EVER let anyone else use your credit card... ever! Got that?
you can, if you absolutely trust the person. My dad gave me one of his credit cards when I had to make an impromptu trip to Texas to help my sister in law. I only used it once and after asking permission :) (I've built up this trust for a very long time. It helps that my parents aren't entitled or helicopters XD)

Aw thanks! You too man!
@@crystalbeautyreadsreddit8580 Thanks
Can we agree that the VIP is the dad from the first story (OP and her credit card), he effectively kicked out entitled children (son and daughter in law) and a Karen (wife) as a way of defending his daughter. That story felt oddly satisfying.
â...like a soldier chucking grenades from the trenches.â Made me LOL. Thanks!
OP in the school story is definitely NTA there comes a time in life when one must unleash there inner Karen also she should probably considering putting her son in a different School
I hope OP in the second story left her fiance.
That last one is seriously the starting grounds for a divorce. The wife clearly does not respect him and may even be considering other options as far as men go.
"Play pillow games, win pillow prizes!" OMG! I snorted so loud at that! đ
CB: why would you not let us use your credit card
OP: because of that

So 22F, 100% props to you standing your ground & not giving up your CC to family use your card. Props to your Dad as well for having your back. Don't ever let anyone ever use your card as in the end you are solely responsible for paying the card.
I was beyond pissed upon hearing the wedding dress story. If this happened to me, I would cancel the wedding, throw out the fiancĂ©âs shit, and flat out tell the fiancĂ© that we are over, he and his family are no longer welcome in my life and to never contact me again. They would then be blocked on social media and I would post on social media to warn others about him and hope it goes viral. I would also take them to court to make them reimburse me for the cost of the dress plus court fees.
Guy who's daughter called him ugly is reason 42,069 I'm glad I don't have kids
to the father who's child called him ugly and the mother basically backed her up - here is my concern for you...if your wife still looks good like you say, and sympathizes with your daughter, how certain are you really that she adores you like you think she does? I'm sorry but this really sounds like a problem we have in America where a 40-something thinks she's still in her early 20s, thinks she could get any man and starts building a relationship with her daughter as a friend and not a mother. In my opinion, you really need to keep your eyes open, watch your wife's actions and start to question odd behaviors, money issues and attitudes. This could be just the start of your wife deciding she needs someone better looking and you know the rabbit hole that can lead to. I am sorry, but there is more to this story than you see.
That first story about the great Pillow War is probably my all time favorite AITA post. Absolutely adorable.
"play pillow games, win pillow prizes" Lmao I'm dead
In fact, I believe that the mother used Karen powers for good. She is the only valid Karen.
