Child-Free Women Refuse To Spend Their Vacation With Friend’s Kids, She Ends Friendship Over It

Right? "My way or the highway" it sounds like. OP has done way more for Sarah than I would have re: including the kids.

Sarah is cutting off her nose to spite her face. Now she'll have NO supporters to help plan stuff to do. Too bad for you, Sarah! And, obviously, OP is NTA.

Child-Free Women Refuse To Spend Their Vacation With Friend’s Kids, She Ends Friendship Over It

I think it's not hard to see why her marriage broke up. She sounds like a narcissist. Her expectations are entirely ridiculous and unrealistic. My best friend of 40+ years had kids and I didn't and she has friends she does stuff with that I'm not involved with, and I'm completely fine with that. Good riddance IMO.

Woman Leaves Dog With Friend, Returns To A $1,400 Vet Bill, Completely Loses It

Whether OP is at fault for the blockage or not, the dog needed to be seen by a vet. Knowing Cherry's regular vet would be preferable because there are vets that are scammers. I took my cat to an unknown vet in a new area because of a tender swollen area on his stomach. After a $700 X-ray they said he needed a biopsy that would be over $2k. I took him to a vet my aunt used for a second opinion 2 days later and it was a mosquito bite he scratched open that got infected and he needed antibiotics and a salve for less than $200.

“Selfish Or Not?”: Woman Refuses To Cancel Her Plans To Help Husband’s Ex Take Care Of Her Son

Key word here is “habitual.” If mom of SS does this sort of thing a lot, then limits need to be set. The SS seems to be getting the short shrift here. If this happened one time, then possibly not a big deal. But if it happens regularly, then these are a bunch of self-centered adults, and yes, this lack of consideration will stay with SS a long time effecting his self-esteem and what not. I do wonder why a neighbor or other friend couldn’t have been asked or an Uber ride from the grandparents house arranged.

“Selfish Or Not?”: Woman Refuses To Cancel Her Plans To Help Husband’s Ex Take Care Of Her Son

I agree. I would tend towards cancelling the gym class, but the apparently habitual extreme lateness of the request makes me wary. Secondly, the lack of even an *offer* of reimbursement for the gym class would make me refuse to help her (I would of course refuse the reimbursement if she was a nice person). And thirdly, the "selfish" accusation would seal the deal as to any doubts as to what type of person she is and dispel any lingering doubts about being wrong to refuse!

“Selfish Or Not?”: Woman Refuses To Cancel Her Plans To Help Husband’s Ex Take Care Of Her Son

The problem here lies with the mother for not booking time off for what sounds like a special occasion. Or, if she couldn’t book time off, let her ex-husband and his wife know in advance so that one of them could make sure they were available. By dropping it on them at the last minute the mother has caused the issue

Yeah, I was bothered by that too. I can suspend belief for ghost hunting and demon banishing, but that was too stupid for real life to be a pass.

Doubtfire is definitely a movie of its time. So many "harmless" movies I watched as a Kid I would not allow my preteen to watch. Of course, I also have fond memories of watching Cheers in prime time and that also would not be allowed today.

Quite likely because Connery read the books and the more recent Bonds might have known they were books first.

Lady Leaves Family Thanksgiving Dinner As Mom Hides Her Cake And Brings Out Own "Back-Up" Pie

Even though he won't admit it, her dad is probably just thankful that he isn't home s wife's constant target. Theres a good chance that she does treat him badly when there is no one else for her to pick on, and that's why he says it is how she shows she cares

That must have been horrific to discover. I hope they don't have any extra DNA in common based on how OP's fathers ancestors were treated

Yeah, did they know since they were adults when OP was born?

Folks Are Spitting Out Family Secrets That Aren’t For The Weak

My theory is that it comes from both nature and nurture. In stories where they are cousins, they probably grew up hearing similar family stories and have similar points of view. For closer members like unknown siblings, possibly familiar pheromones attracting each other. No actual research or proof for these theories.

Not only was she a horrible mom, she wasn't good with finances either if she kept over 50k in a regular savings account. I worked at a bank during the early 2000's and even the "money market" saving accounts had a horrible return.

Tbf, the male characters aren’t exactly written better. So many characters dropped just to include more and more new characters. So much potential wasted…

TBF though it was probably an accurate portrayal of how things were at that time. And I mean both the time in which it is set and the time when the film /TV series was made.
