AITA for bringing my child to my sister's wedding?

I (33F) have a son Alfie (9M). My sister Erinn (26F) just got married. On the invitations she asked that the wedding remain childfree. I don't personally agree with childfree weddings but I respect Erinn's choice and I arranged for my friend to come up and watch Alfie for the day.

The day of the wedding my friend called me and told me she was really sorry but wasn't feeling well and didn't think she would be up to watching Alfie. I really do appreciate her being mindful of that (especially as she ended up finding out it's Covid). But it left me in an inconvenient place because that was the only option I had even thought to line up and I had to leave at noon (friend called at 6:30). I really didn't know what else to do so I ended up taking Alfie with me.

It was a big wedding so I didn't end up talking to Erinn until the reception, which is good because she was pi**ed at me. She reminded me again that this wedding was not for kids, and for good reason seeing as me and my parents were "too focused on Alfie". He's a 9yo boy at a grown-up wedding he didn't know he was going to, I hardly think it's reasonable for us to not acknowledge him and how well he's doing. I said my sitter fell through and Erinn's husband said "that's not our problem."

She was just not going to drop this regardless of what explanation I gave, so my mom ended up taking Alfie home...

Aita for threatening my family after they insulted my wife infront of my face?

So I'm (22m) my wife is (21f) we have been together since childhood, we have been dating since I was 17, problem is she met with an accident when she was 11 and since then she couldn't walk, we are working on it but it isn't promising at all.

So we got married 8 months ago, my family and hers and our friends all joined us, my family criticised me for marrying so early and being rash, I have 2 elder brothers they are 2 years apart, and one elder sister who's 4 years older than me.

They attended my wedding and I thought they accepted her, but a few days ago, we had a family dinner cause finally my eldest sister was going to get married, everything eas going good, we joked around, drank, ate, danced etc etc.

My wife was sleepy, so I took her upstairs and put her to sleep, she can't handle alcohol at all, I came downstairs and after a while, Out of nowhere my sister said that it's better if my wife is not present in her wedding, I thought it was a joke so I laughed, she said she was serious, I asked her why, she simply said that 'she want me to be beside her and not carry my wife around'

I was like what?? She's not a burden she's family, and I told her that, she said after that, she accepts my wife, but I will end up paying too much attention my wife instead of being with her, and it's only reasonable that a brother...

AITAH for not forgiving my husband after what he has done?

The story happened a few months ago, but I am emotionally sensitive, so I am still very sad and shocked.

My husband and I have been married for over 2 years. My husband runs a business, so for the past few years, I have been staying at home taking care of our child. A few months ago, we discussed buying a house, and I overheard him talking on the phone with his father about putting the house under his father's name. I didn't say anything about it because I thought it was his own money and he wanted to make his parents happy, so I reassured myself in that way.

But I was truly devastated when I found out that he listened to his friend's advice to put the house under his parents' name and then transfer it to his name separately, so that the property wouldn't be legally connected to me during our marriage. I was surprised how he could go along with that idea when we have been living together, raising children, and never had any conflicts.

I couldn't keep my calm and caused a scene, and the house-buying plan was postponed. After that, I cried a lot, and he apologized and took me shopping for things to make up for it. But until now, whenever I think about it, I feel indescribably sad. I can't forget it, and I can't forgive him. What should I do, everyone?

AITA for reporting my nephew to the police after he stole and damaged my car?

I’m 22M and I’m the product of an affair. My dad is about 25 years older than my mom so all 3 of my siblings from him are 17+ years older than me. I didn’t have a relationship with that side of the family for majority of my childhood, but my dad and grandparents often sent money, holiday cards, birthday gifts, etc. I’m a lot closer to them now and had good relationships with all of my siblings, nieces and nephews until this happened.

I own a 1976 Corvette Stingray that was gifted to me by my maternal grandpa when I turned 17. I’ve built this car up from a roller and it’s my most prized possession. I went out of town for 2 weeks for work and left my car in my paternal grandparents’ garage. I don’t like keeping it at my place when I’m away for long because I don’t live in the best area. I’ve done this since my freshman year of college and there has never been any issue until now.

When I got back in town, I immediately went to my grandparents house to pick up my car and there was a big dent and a lot of paint missing off the side of my car. It looked like someone side swiped my car. I asked them what happened and they were confused. When I showed them they were as shocked as I was. They told me that my nephew “Kevin” 25M had been messing around in the garage the previous weekend but they didn’t see him take the car at...

AITA for refusing to call my cousin's son by his name?

I (33F) have a cousin (32F) who has always been in a competition with me. I did not care, because this whole idea of let's see who is better is just foreign to me. We applied to the same University, but she did not get in. She ended up going to another University which she then kept on claiming is better anyways. Again, couldn't care less, I was just happy she is not at the same school so I don't have to put up with this nonsense anymore.

Fast forward to now, we see each other at family gatherings twice a year, we both have jobs and are past the point of comparison etc. I had a baby boy last year and we named him a common name, so nothing like a grandfather`s name or anything, there are many people called like that, I claim no ownership of that name. Last month my cousin delivered a baby boy as well.

When she and her husband announced she was pregnant, they already knew they are having a boy but refused to share what name they had picked for him. I made nothing of it, thought they probably just wanted to feel special and announce the name in a big way or that maybe they had chosen some made up name and did not want our family to judge them for it or try to talk them out of it. I asked her about the name again later and she said they are not sharing it and that even her parents don't know. I said ok and dropped...

AITA for not letting my brother and his family stay with me anymore?

I own a nice house in a city that is quite famous for the resorts in the area. I live with my dogs and we have plenty of room. I often let my friends and family stay with me. I work from home so I have my office in the guest house. I sometimes rent out my house and live in my guest house for months at a time. I paid off my mortgage in ten years that way. In 2020 right before the lockdowns my brother brought his new family to stay for a week. I didn't have any renters that week, we had talked well in advance. Whenever I have guests, not renters, staying with me I go in and out of my house as I please. This was an issue for my sister-in-law and her kids. They said I was not to come in without ringing the doorbell and being let in. I asked my brother WTF and he said that his wife and stepkids really liked their privacy. No problem. So now the pandemic is in the rearview mirror and he asked if he could bring his family again. I said no. I said that I liked being able to use my property as I wanted and that if his family needed privacy there were literally hundreds of hotels in the area. He said I was being a d__k and punishing his family for their desire for privacy. I said they could come but that if they want exclusive use of my house they would have to rent it. My weekly rate is about...

AITAH for telling my sister I told you so because her daughter hates her name?

I 32F have been having a bit of drama with my younger sister Ramona (30F) about her daughter Egwene (11F). yes dear reader that is her real name and is root of the issue. Now I love my younger sister, and we've always gotten along pretty well, however she has always been into nerdy pop culture stuff, she plays D&D weekly, loves Marvel Movies and is obsessed with Fantasy novels. Her favorite as you may have guessed is The Wheel of Time series. Now I know next to nothing about this series, but I knew enough to know that Egwene al'Vere wasn't a name she came up with on her own. When she announced that name there was a bit of confusion and disapproval from the family, but no one strongly pushed back on it. That honor went to me. I tried to approach the subject calmly I even gave her the "You're naming a human being" speech, but she said she knew best. After a brief back and forth I flat out told her, her daughter was going to get bullied. She blew up at me and I didn't push the issue any further because I could see that she wouldn't budge.

Fast forward and "Gwen" is happy healthy 11 year old girl, however she has been voicing lately that she hates her name. the teachers at school always get it wrong and her classmates tease her constantly. None of this is helped by the fact that Ramona insists on calling her Egwene al'Vere, not just Egwene or Gwen which she much prefers. Well the two...

AITA for outright mentioning pumping in my do not disturb sign?

Throwaway and I'm typing this on my phone while pumping, so please excuse any typos. I'm a nursing mom and I am fortunate to have my own office. Initially, when I returned to work, I would just close my door and put up a sign asking people to please return in 15 minutes. Unfortunately, I'd still have people banging on the door every few minutes or trying to talk to me through the door, or even jiggling the handle, asking if I could "just" whatever... My word that I need 15 undisturbed minutes wasn't enough and it made my pumping sessions really stressful (and anyone who's ever pumped knows stress can really mess up the pumping and make it less efficient.) So I amended the sign to say "Pumping--please return in 15 minutes". That cut down on the disturbances but apparently now a couple of coworkers have complained that it's tmi and making them uncomfortable. AITA for outright announcing when I'm pumping?

AITA for not helping my brother buy a flat with our shared inheritance?

In UK so student debt and medical debt aren't concerns.

Myself, my brother, and my cousin all got an equal amount from our grandmother's estate, just short of 90k each. House prices where we are tend to start at 200k, so I went to an extremely cheap area of the country and found a house for just under 60k. After the additional costs I have about 20k left.

My brother, "Ant", got the same amount I did. While moving was easy enough for me as my degree and on campus job have both just ended, and my daughter hasn't started school yet, Ant is currently in a job where he can't leave without a s__t ton of legal issues. Aside from being stuck there, Ant has also said he wouldn't want to move even if he had the choice.

Ant wants to buy a flat in his current location. He's looking at 140k for a 1 bedroom. He still has his 85k, he and his girlfriend have saved another 30, and he's asked if I can give him 10, which will give him 125k total. He's hoping for a discount on the 140k if he can pay cash, which he's been told could work, but he needs at least 125k to make an offer like that, and without my help he only has 115.

I've said no. While I'm currently comfortable, owning my house and having just lined up a new job, this 20k is basically my entire savings and Ant is asking me to halve it. I've said he could just find a...

AITAH for being upset that my SIL is calling her children “second class citizens”?

My SIL (30) has 2 children (B3 + B1). I have one son (B3), and I’m pregnant with a girl.
We announced our pregnancy in early July and found out the gender 4 weeks ago. The day before we planned to tell my husband’s family about our daughter her husband (my husbands brother) ask to know the gender before the reveal so SIL could “emotionally prepare her response.” We thought this was weird, but didn’t want any drama so we told them.

The next day we did the reveal at my husband’s birthday dinner with his family and she and BIL were not supportive at all! She left the room during the reveal even when people called for her to come back and grab a cupcake, they didn’t congratulate us, and BIL also didn’t participate in taking a cupcake that had the gender color inside, he just stood to the side and didn’t say anything.

The next day we saw BIL, and told him that what had happened had hurt us - but we wanted to understand why she was responding that way. He explained that she had gender disappointment with both of their kids, and that she was just going through a lot. We tried to be understanding but told him we were going to put down some boundaries because, although we understand she is going through a lot, we aren’t going to change our celebrations or invite her if she continues to behave in an unsupportive way.
(Edit for clarity : there are 3 grandchildren already and all 3 we have done a gender...
