Son creampies in mom

Woman comes into household and seduces the husband, wife and teenage son. Gets the wife on pills. Ends with them thinking its all over and she's gone. However, teenage son is calling the mom to say he's off to college, but he's actually in bed at a hotel with the woman.

The first dream I can remember was two years ago when my neighbor died (he was family friend) I dreamed about seeing him while I was walking home, I knew he was dead and I was a bit scared of seeing him. He stopped me and said to me say hi to your parents from me, I said okay I will and ran home because I was scared. It bothered me for a few days and then my mom told me she had a weird dream, she described everything that happened in my dream and then I told her that we had the same dream.
I also dreamed about my grandpa's funeral a month before he actually passed, in that dream I was holding my spirit baby (a baby that hasn't been born yet but I know he's my son and we have a strong connection for years now).
A few days after my grandpa passed I dreamed about being in some house with my family and him (he was dead and laying in a casket). Suddenly he came back to life and talked to me asking me to find someone, he even said his name. In the dream I didn't know who he was asking for but when I woke up it clicked. He said my spirit baby's name but somehow in the dream I didn't realize it.
That same night I dreamed about my aunt who also passed, actually her grave, it was following me around, whenever I looked it was there, it freaked me out to be honest.
Fast forward to today, I had a scary dream in which I was sitting in my bedroom with a friend of mine while my mom was in the living room talking to my aunt, I was weirded out and told my friend something in the lines of this can't be happening my aunt is dead how is she here? I went to check out what's happening and my aunt was there but it wasn't her actual body it was a different one but I knew it was her, she had the same voice and everything. She asked to leave and I opened my door and let her out. She told me she'll be back later in the evening. I asked my mom what happened how is she here and she answered me saying: I don't know. She just called me on the phone and asked to come over. The first thing that came to my mind is to get salt and put a line in front of every window and the front door (I don't know if that's a real thing, I saw it in a tv show a couple of years ago I think I've read somewhere that salt keeps the spirits away). I missed one window and she started knocking on it and asking me why don't I want to let her in, suddenly a lot of spirits appeared (I don't know them) and backed me into a corner. I begged them to let me go and threw salt on them but it wasn't working. I told them that I'm pregnant (I'm not) and they left.
It was a really vivid dream and I don't what any of these mean. Could it be possible that I'm somehow channeling them? The thing is my mom also has similar dreams but the catch is she dreams of her mom before something bad happens and my grandma tells her everything will be okay.

So l got a bit of an update on this post.
Things did turn wild.
I had a talk with people who are friends with Yumi´s friendcircle and found out how it even came to the attempted charge. (I´m still blown away by the reasoning)
So to refresh: I had a former "friend" Yumi (around her 40s, f) in a certain online mobile game and had many times some rather unpleasant things happened to me where Yumi definitely played a major role in it. A couple of weeks ago I had an unpleasant call from my citys police department where a mom in her 40s tried to press charges on me for assassination of a name.
When the police and I went through of the material that this mom provided, I seriously questioned myself the following:

1. Why would this mom go as far as pressing charges that she personally was never involved to begin with
2. Why did Yumi, Shila and Yumi´s friendcircle gave this moms son ss of conversations I had with people over an amount of 3 years worth (700 image files)
3. Did any person tell or like say make that mom go and file a charge at me?
4. Why would I be charged now after all the time?

The police did ask if I wanted to press counter charges and charges against Yumi and Shila but said no, as I don´t know how much the mom is involved in all of this originally and I don´t know this mom at all or her son. And I didn´t wanted them to be burdened by something that originated due to Yumi´s, Shila´s and Yumi´s friendcircle´s doing.
At that point I might want to add that the mom and her son lived somewhere in bavaria and she did drive all the way up to my city to make that charge...
Now to what I did find out: Yumi and Shila didn´t tell anyone to go the police and let them file a charge against me. Instead the following was the case.
I apparently upsetted a few players during ingame fighting events, by defeating those players and those players went around to people that are in the same server as I am and asked about me and got told a lot of things that Yumi, Shila and yumi´s friendcircle spread way way long ago.
Some person had saved those image files and gave it to that moms son.
I was told that Yumi and Shila still say to people that they should avoid talking to me and stuff like that but got also told that they had no beef with me at the moment and that they peacefully wanted to play the game just as much as I wanted to.
Knowing this I am somewhat relieved but yet also terrified. I won´t try making contact with Yumi or Shila as I do not trust both of them anymore (especially Yumi) but I am thinking of asking a friend to make them aware that this happened. Though for now its just a thought and I honestly want it to stay that way...
But the fact that the attempt of charging me was possible is still terrifying me and I do think that Yumi and Shila deserve to know that what they did nearly led to charges for the both of them and for that sons mother.
I´m not sure if I should tell them but then again, all I want is to play that game in peace.

Born and raised in New Jersey my whole life. So very westernized, as my parents continue to remind me. I am older than my parents were when they were arraigned but way younger than anyone I know who is married (non-Indian). I don’t want to get married right now but I’m constantly being pressured to meet this auntie and that auntie to see if I could be a fit with her son.
It’s exhausting. I told my mom I was going to sleep early tonight to get away from the noise and she has been messaging me different profiles of potentials so I can review in the morning. My parents would never force me to marry but keep thinking they can “steer me in the right direction” by not leaving me alone.
Help.

To preface, my mom is a sweetheart. We are from the conservative south so she has always grown up with a set of ideals that obviously got shattered when I came out. But unlike my friends, she embraced me and said she would accept me.
And she has… for the most part. She really tries to understand and I can see her effort. She celebrates pride with me, proudly introduces me, defends me if someone says something bad about my orientation. But I think it still doesn’t click all the way for her. For example, she will come back from the hair salon and say she saw so and so’s mom and saw a picture of her son and he got really handsome. She thinks we would be a great fit! Then I stare at her. And then it’s like she comes back to reality, and says oh no not in this lifetime I mean in a parallel universe.
I think she genuinely just forgets. Or her subconscious wants her to forget. Just a rant.

Tomorrow is my country's constitution day and my sons kindergarten has this tiny parade today, I felt like shit but I pushed myself to watch him so his heart would not get broken. I was dry heaving, I was cramping, I started dissociating and everything was bad but I was there for my kid, I could have hidden in my room as I usualy would but I just pushed myself.
What's wrong with me? No idea, could be many things (chronic issues hooray), might throw up might not but who knows. I feel empowered, being a mom gives you superpowers sometimes.

Someone I'm very close to is in a dilemma. They just found out their niece (14) was touched inappropriately by her mom's friend (a grown man that's in his early 30s) while she was in her bed asleep and her mom was in the shower. Btw, the kids all have no bedroom doors, just open doorframes, and there is no functioning bathroom down the hall of the kids rooms. TRIGGER WARNING He went in her room and put his hand in her underwear. The dude chilled afterwards and left without incident.
Two days later the daughter texted her teen brother (who lives with his grandpa) and the brother told his grandpa, who then called and told the child's mother what happened. The Mother tells the daughter "Sorry that happened to you but you have to just live your life and not let it bring you down.", and she gave the daughter ZERO support. She then told both of her siblings (1 being my friend) the "event" will no longer be discussed. She just wants everyone to go on as if it never happened.
She's living in a fixer upper with 4 kids and she hasn't been fixing it up, it's just degraded over time because she really let's her kids do whatever they want, including just walk down the street at night to someone's house even though those kids are like 7 years old. She currently has people living in her backyard in a tent (she only met them sometime last year and one is a felon) and she gave them permission to be in the house whenever they want, around the kids.
My friend said to kick those people out TODAY and wants to take action for their niece and do whatever is needed to incriminate the guy, but the child's mother raised hell on earth upon hearing the suggestions because the people in the tent are "leaving on the 1st" and "she doesn't want cps involved with her kids because it will be her 15th case with them and she just had a case closed earlier this year." Also my friend's parents are well off in a 4 bedroom, 2 full bath home which is where the daughters would go if they had to and the sons will go with the Mother's other sibling, so no cps won't put them in the system just like they didn't the other 14 times, if they say the kids have to leave the fixer upper house.
This woman has nodded off intoxicated while my friend (who was dozing off soberly) had to jump up and do the heimlich maneuver on her daughter because she swallowed a freaking penny and was fanning her neck and couldn't make a sound and the Mother hasn't given thanks not even once all these years! My friend does NOT like his sibling as a person at all and says she has been spoiled all her life so she doesn't take accountability for her actions. She told a child (probably 10yrs old) to walk down the street alone at night to go get her even younger brother and bring him back home. My friend wants to just go ahead and take the proper steps to report what has happened the authorities. The Mother says HELL NO to that and to hush up about what happened to her daughter, she was also screaming at my friend like she was taking out her fear of accountability on him (I heard it, she was screaming looooudd in his face), completely disrespecting him for telling her to DO SOMETHING. If my friend calls authorities without the Mother (his sister) knowing, is he the AH?
Tldr Friend's niece was touched in her sleep by her mom's "friend" while mom was showering. Mom doesn't want to do anything about it, my friend wants to tell the police, is he the AH?

heyo :) Didn't think I could, but I scripted an entire episode :D I like it - hope you too ^{^} Enjoy :)
(this episode is set in season 2 and based on theories and assumptions - and also starring some OCs XD for this episode, the entourage of Vincent Thorpe aka his bodyguards Cedric and Barnes and butler Davis)
Scene: Weathervane. Lucas is working behind the counter when he notices a lot of traffic noise. He looks out the side window front and sees a queue of cars heading for Nevermore. He sighs tristly, and turns back to his work with a somber expression.
Cut to the courtyard of the school. The group is already seated at their table – around them, the long ones for parent day are already being arranged.
Wednesday: I didn’t think they’d do another parent day so soon.
Enid: Well, they probably think the students can use seeing their families right now.
Bianca: (gloomy, not looking up from her phone) Most of them for sure.
Xavier: (looks at her, compationaletly) Is your mother coming?
Bianca: (coldly) I guess I really misjudged her. (her face twitches a little, as if she was holding back tears to some degree)
Xavier: (looks at her for another moment) Well… I can keep you company for sure today, since dad won’t show up. He didn’t even bother with a text this time.
Bianca: (looking up from her phone) That’s weird.
Xavier: (shrugs) I guess he decided I’m old enough now to know how things go. (he chuckles snidely) But I guess he really does have an appointment … maybe business partners, maybe some... pretty company. Who knows. (snorts) Do you know the difference between the two?
Ajax: (cringes) Please no.
Wednesday: (not looking up from her book) The pretty company have limits what they do for money.
The table takes a moment, then breaks down in giggles. Wednesday smiles a little.
Xavier: (smirks, points at her, approving this punchline) Hm. It’s actually their outfits when they try to get on his lab.
They chuckle a little again.
Xavier: (sighs) He’d rather have someone else sitting on his that place his own behind on a bench at this stupid school for sure.
Bianca: (warningly) Xavier.
Xavier: (angrily) What? It’s true! Anything’s more important that his useless son’s dumb parent day.
A voice behind him: Oh, I would never put it this way, dear boy.
Xavier freezes. He slowly turns around to where the others are looking. His father is standing at a gateway nearby, flanked by two bodyguards, smiling at him.
Xavier: What…?
Vincent: My son.
He gets up and walks over to the trio, bewildered. Around him, some other parents are eyeing his father, strangely concerned.
Xavier: Why are you here?
Vincent: (chuckles) Why, it’s parent day. I came to see you.
Xavier: (stuttering) Y-yeah, I … I guess … b-but…
Vincent wants to say something more, but his phone rings – it’s the overture of Swan Lake. He sighs and takes the call.
Vincent: (stepping away) Excuse me.
He leaves with one of his bodyguards. The other and Xavier stay behind as he walks away, looking after him until he’s far enough away and busy talking. Then they turn to each other, hugging briefly, but tightly.
Xavier: Ced!
Cedric: (chuckles) How are you slugger.
Xavier: (smiles, pats his back as he lets go) Pretty good, I suppose.
Cedric: (turning to their table) Is this the new crowd?
Xavier: Yeah, erm – that’s Enid (she waves), Eugene (waves too) and Wednesday (doesn’t move, just stares at him).
Cedric: Yes, let’s see – (pointing at them) the nice new roommate, and Ajax’ girlfriend, and (chuckles) Addams, of course.
Xavier: (rolls his eyes) Come on now.
Cedric: What? I know who she is.
Wednesday: Does he talk about other things currently?
Cedric: (shrugs) You know how boys his age are.
Xavier: (groans) Why?
Cedric: Still not saying anything. You won’t be this lucky with your dad.
Xavier: (looks at him, concerned) … I’m in trouble, right?
Cedric: (sighs) You think?
Bianca: This isn’t our fault, if he asks. We try to keep him out of it.
Wednesday: It’s true.
The others nod. Xavier rolls his eyes.
Cedric: I figured that, don’t worry. (smiles at them)
Him and Xavier exchange a look, Cedric shaking his head at him a little, but his expression remains gentle.
Xavier: (shurgs) Boys my age do dumb things, right? Who would hold that against me?
Vincent: (calls from the hallway) Xavier!
Cedric: (looks over at him, then back at Xavier) You know who.
Xavier sighs, then walks over to his father with Cedric. Before he can say anything however, Vincent interrupts.
Vincent: I’d like to see your new art.
Xavier: (sighs) Sure.
They walk away.
The group looks on. Enid leans over to Bianca and Ajax.
Enid: It’s bad, right?
They nod slowly.
Esther Sinclair: (calling from nearby) Enid!
Enid: (sighs)
Thing: (pats her hand)
Esther: (walks into the courtyard, smiling) There’s my little she-wolf!
Enid: (gets up, smiling – Ajax follows her)
Gomez: (coming in next to her) We must have the same daughter. (to Wednesday) Mia lupita!
Wednesday: (smiles a little as her parents and Pugsley enter the courtyard, and gets up to greet them as well)
Esther hugs Enid tightly. She eyes Ajax as he greets Enid’s father Murray, shaking his hand. Ajax turns to her as well as Enid hugs her dad – she smiles, but before he can say anything, his phone buzzes.
Ajax: Oh, my moms will be at the parking lot in a minute. (he kisses Enid on the cheek and walks off) Excuse me. Was a pleasure to meet you. (nods to them) Ma'am. Sir.
Enid’s parents smile at him, but Esther’s drops very quickly after he’s left.
Eugene: (sighs, turns to Bianca, who’s looking at her phone tristly) You wanna get another coffee from the cafeteria before the big storms?
Bianca: (sighs) Why not. Maybe it’ll be bitter enough today to give us a proper gastritis. Or just make us sick. We could use that, right?
They chuckle a little, then get up to leave.

Hi! This story will require quite a bit of context (that can be found here https://www.reddit.com/AmItheAsshole/s/2Vo9S0QKF1). I need to both vent and find some advice, so any input is appreciated. Long story short, my (F26) ex Fitz (M 32) keeps finding reasons to sue me to get full custody of our son Tim (M5). He sued several times in the past, but now everything went too far.
After a previous fierce custody battle we had an iron tight co parenting agreement. It took ages to reach one as he kept trying to include clauses just to make my life miserable. Right after graduating, when Tim was around 1 yo, in the middle of our custody battle, I would take Tim to work with me a lot. I would have long hours at the beginning, trying to make a name for myself, while Fitz was trying to paint me as a negligent mother for leaving Tim with a nanny while studying, back during finals. Hence, every other day after 4:30, when most people would go home, my mom would drop Tim at my lab and he would stay and play next to me in my office until 8 when we would go home. I would offer him plenty of attention as I would mostly run time consuming simulations that would require little involvement from my side.
Knowing this, Fitz fought tooth and nail to stop me from doing this, knowing how much easier this made our life. I work in a lab that focuses on various incurable diseases research. I almost never get in touch with the biological side as I am in the modelling team, doing mostly maths and coding. My office is in a different building than the lab and Tim has only ever been in my own office, far from the biological material. However, in the end, after arguing that my workplace is dangerous, Fitz managed to get a clause that would prevent me from having Tim with me at work. In order not to have it sound personal, the clause stated that Tim was not to be taken in any place with a BR factor greater than 1, unless his safety would be at play.
Where we are from, the BR factor of an establishment measures the risk of getting an infectious disease. Any biological lab has it greater than 1, by default, even if they do not work with any viruses . During the pandemic, all hospitals got their BR increased over 1.
Now, after an emergency, Fitz sued me for breaching our agreement. He has had a private detective in me for the better part of the past two years and kept trying building a case against me for “repeatedly violating our contract “. He kept using petty situations, like Tim being alone with my dad for 2 minutes into the men’s room at the mall while my mom and I are right in front of the door, waiting for them, even though my dad is not on the pre approved list as he has epilepsy. Or me not having an epi pen at my home because I gave it to Fitz as his was about to expire and it was his turn to pick up Tim who has severe allergies, even though our agreement said to have one at all times. (Just to make it clear, I bought a new one before getting Tim back). He also tried to paint me as a danger for having had seen a psychiatrist in highschool and early college. The reason was an eating disorder, nothing that could be any danger, which Fitz was aware of.
Even though all his so said proofs and breaches of contract were silly, with the most serious one described in the linked post, the trial got very intense, with him attacking me on a personal level. While we live in a big city, it quickly became the biggest gossip in our community, being on the lips of all the moms from pre school, most of them siding with me. Unfortunately, as much as I tried and couldn’t keep it all from Tim, since he was asked lots of questions by the kids at pre-school who heard about the situation. He became very stressed and started having night terrors.
I tried to reason with Fitz for Tim’s sake with no luck. 2 days ago, Fitz’s sister, Mia, came to see me. She wanted to give me something that could end all the stress Tim was under.
Almost 3 years ago, Fitz’s dad had a heart attack and almost died, but made a miraculous recovery. While he was in a coma, Fitz and Mia took Tim to the hospital to see his grandfather for what was thought to be the last time. Fitz’s entire family agreed there was no point in telling me, since I was very empathetic about the entire situation and even suggested that Tim and I could go visit him in the hospital once I picked him up from Fitz. They refused, however, since Tim already visited him, but did not mention this to me. She gave me texts to prove everything she was saying, and showing that Fitz knowingly breached our agreement and hid this from me for years on purpose.
My lawyer says that since this event occurred before all the ones he tries to use against me, it could get the entire case dismissed immediately, since it would have voided the parenting agreement we had. He guarantees me a win nonetheless, it would just take longer if we don’t use this. My parents think I should be the bigger person and not use it, as it is cruel and I should be an example for Tim for when he will be older. They insist that I would be in the wrong, especially since I would win nonetheless. I, however, just want to end this nightmare for good, and take care of the emotional health of my son.
I don’t know what I should do or how I should protect Tim at this point as I believe he should have a father and he and Fitz are really close, but at the same time, Fitz does hurt Tim a lot these days.

What should I do? Any advice on the matter will be highly appreciated!

I went over to my dad's to help mow his lawn and clean up his yard because he's no longer capable, when I came across two kittens. We had destroyed their home unintentionally while throwing away some of the trash, so I hoped their mama would come back and move them. Well, she didn't, and a dog came and tried to eat them (the front yard does not have a gate). Luckily the dog didn't because we got to them in time. Having moved them, we waited to make sure mama would come. I started thinking how they were feral and I had seen the mom who was also feral. The kittens were about 2-4 weeks old and the mom only looked like a year old herself. So I decided to try to trap her and take her in to get her and her babies adopted out.
She finally showed up late at night and we caught her, but while trying to get her into her cage she bit me, clean through some work gloves and my fingernail, several times. I had no idea their fangs could do that. Well, we got her packed up and this morning I took them to the local no-kill shelter. They let me know that when she is old enough and the kittens are weaned that they would fix her, tip her ears, and re-release her if they aren't able to find a home for her. I'm glad I did it, but my hands got mangled. I can guarantee that those kittens would have died, so at least now there won't be new kittens dying each year.
The highlight of my day was my son getting to hold a kitten for the first time in his life. He is deathly allergic to all animals with fur so much so that he requires an epi-pen, and he started allergy shots only a year ago. He is still very allergic, but the allergist encouraged me to give him antihistamines and then let him pet a cat to test what his reaction would be. He got a little itchy, but was overall fine. This is pretty incredible! We will do 3 more tests before I will feel comfortable enough to start taking him to stores again (because everyone brings their pets into stores, not just service animals, but everyone). Next test will be a full grown cat that has never been around dogs. The third test will be a puppy or dog that has never been around cats. Last test will be both at the same time. If he doesn't have serious reactions to any of these tests it means we can change the way we live. We can go to parks again, and he can go trick or treating for the first time. We will be able to ride on airplanes again, and go on hikes in the woods.
The allergist informed me that he would add even more cat and dog allergen into the shots this year so hopefully we could speed up the process. My son has been carrying around a little stuffed dog he named Oreo for the last 2 years in anticipation of the day he can have his own pet. He takes such good care of it. When it's cold outside, he even puts it under his coat to keep it warm.
I am not an optimist, but I have great hopes for this coming year!

So I’m a junior in HS, and my parents got divorced at the beginning of the year. My dad moved out of the country, and we went from living in a pretty nice big 5 bedroom house to a small apartment with my mom and sister. I don’t even have a room anymore, I sleep on the living room couch. I know I am still in a better position than many, but it still kind of mentally hurts. I went from a mostly A student to Mostly B’s with one or two A’s this semester. I feel like everything has gone downhill since the divorce. At the same time, I feel like nobody has asked me how I feel. Like don’t get me wrong my mom is very loving, but sometimes when I come “home” I don’t really feel like it is that, it feels like I’m crashing on someone’s couch every night, which as a son/brother feels pretty bad. Again, I know I’m still fortunate compared to many others, but it still has taken a toll on me.

I remember how excited I was as a 13 year old kid getting the PlayStation and Final Fantasy VII. My younger sister and I had been begging our mom for months. I had watched my parents play Final Fantasy II (IV in Japan) and helped play Final Fantasy III (VI in Japan) on the SNES. My initial thought upon playing FF7 OG is that the polygon graphics were so good at the time. I actually was too upset after Aerith’s death in OG to finish it so I had my sister play while I watched. At some point I did play through it (got Emerald and Ruby weapon and Knights of the Round summon), but I had to get over the fact that Aerith died. . . But after Crisis Core I became a devoted FF7 fan.
Anyway, I’ve been playing the Remake and Rebirth with my kids. We also played Crisis Core together. During the first Remake my daughter was 4 years old and son was 2 years old. I still remember my 4 year old daughter explainig Sephiroth’s backstory to my husband and that Sephiroth’s mother is an alien XD My kids are a bit older now so they understand the story pretty well. One problem I have now though is they want to play, so we take turns, but it’s kind of difficult so then they get frustrated 😬But overall, it’s been so much fun sharing the game with them. My daughter loves Zack, Cloud, and Tifa in that order (just like me 😊) and my son just loves Cloud because he’s so cool. Playing RPGs with my mom and sister was one of the highlights of my childhood, so I wanted to share the magic with them 😉

Hello, you can call me Cory. I am a woman nearly 23 and just went no contact with my mom. It all happened so fact and I’m not regretting it at all, but I am trying to process it. I’ve always ALWAYS had horribly mixed feelings about my mom. She has always been so scared and angry and yet she was the only parent ever in my life. My dad came in and out ripping my heart to pieces and she was my only constant. She was at least taking care of us(my older brother and I) though my brother did most of the emotional part since she was always so scarily unpredictable. Lashing out for needing lunch money, signatures, talking to her too soon after she got home from work, asking about dinner was a regular if not daily occurrence in that house. She also didn’t want to be a mom and reminded us of that constantly. We ‘ruined’ her. We were always a burden it seemed. There was also the threat of her sending us to our father, who she knew was physically violent, if we protested or cause too much trouble. She primed us for college as if that was our life purpose, and now I’m here. My brother didn’t finish college and so the pressure shifted all to me in high school. I broke myself and burnt out trying to get all A’s and the best test scores possible. I did rotc, our band’s color guard, culinary, honor societies, you name it. I got to my senior year and Covid came. I honestly enjoyed being able to recluse for the time I was able, some may say I still am. It was the first time in my life if felt like I was able to realize college wasn’t a dream for me, it was hers. Telling her that came with the mixed message of she wanted me to be happy but she would not support me at all if I didn’t go; knowing I couldn’t support myself, I went. I just kept faltering though, I was unable to handle much of college after sophomore year but I just wanted to get it over with. During that time she married my ex’s dad and didn’t even bother to tell me. I found out while helping her edit a letting to his boss thanking them for the honeymoon. I was devastated. I felt like I wasn’t even a part of our own family anymore. This is after my brother went no contact with her too so I felt totally alone. She went across the country and left me alone in a state with no family. She did pay for my dorm but I felt abandoned. Telling her this was met with her telling me how selfish I was for not wanting her to go. Fast forward to now. I have moved in with my boyfriend, taken over all my bills and financially separated from her. Her new step son of course graduated on time and so she came down for it. I had been avoiding talking to her for months and involved her as little as I could in my life. Every conversation was so tense I never felt comfortable telling her anything in fear that it would be weaponized against me. So after days of her trying to push me into plans of seeing her, I finally cut the cord. I told her how far I felt from our relationship. I told her how hurt by our whole lives I was. I told her that I was glad that she had people around her for this so that she wasn’t alone. I told her that I couldn’t blame her for everything considering that she came from extreme abuse. Often times when I’m mad at her, I will see her as the little girl I saw in a picture of her when she was young. I look at her and I see such a broken woman who just decided that she would never seek help. I look at her and I see such a broken woman who just decided that she would never seek help. my father was physically abusive, so I got used to the feeling of not having a dad but for a while the thought that my mom might’ve eventually love me like I needed it got me through him and the loss of him. I feel like I’ve been begging with her for centuries to at least hear me out in a way that wasn’t dismissive. It never really worked. Any pain I expressed was taken as a criticism of her p dismissive. It never really worked. Any pain I expressed was taken as a criticism of her unwanted parentage. In a way I think it was that she got a whole new family that hurt the most. It feels like when she married him, she did everything she could to erase that we even existed. Bringing up my father was a no, her having a different last name was a no, suddenly our last name was bad and only representative of her father. It worked the same for him too though, her new husband. I don’t disagree with wanting to wipe the slate clean and begin anew, but to erase a father or a mother from your child’s life is to erase part of who that are. My dad abused all of us. Much of my life was defined by that. To erase him, came with her erasing this person who grew up only know how to fight or get hit. That’s who I’m trying to grow out of, but it is part of me. I can never deny that. I don’t ever want to talk to her, but I miss her so much. I miss feeling like we had a future, like he wanted me, like she felt safe with me. I miss feeling safe with her. I miss her smile and the way she laughed with me. I miss seeing her excited about life. I blocked her soon after because I thought she’d just tell me how horrible I was. I couldn’t imagine a situation where she would do what I wanted: hug me, apologize. I really wish I would have gotten a last hug or something because she hasn’t tried to contact me since. I know that is what I want, but that is only because she stopped trying to have a life with us. My adolescence felt like her race to the finish line. Before no contact, but after she moved, she had never come to visit me. She never called to talk about life past how I was in school. If I was too honest about my discontentment, we only fought, so everything became fake. I don’t know how to feel about this all. I’m struggling. I’m just looking for support and am in between therapists at the moment. Anything is something. I’m not looking to have my mind changed. I know she’s happy now that she can be in the world she wants. Thank you for reading.

For some background my mother and I have never gotten along from her giving me up as a baby to now we’ve never seen eye to eye on most things. She has 3 kids my sister (18) me 17m) and my brother (11), All of us have different dads and she has made some terrible choices, my sisters dad was 24 when my mom was 16, my dad has some charges with children, and my brothers dad who is a drug dealer who has done many terrible things to be exact, he stalked there house, broke into a different house and threatened my brother with a gun. She has been different relationships however after getting married to her current husband (34m) she started drinking liquor heavily and becoming very angry and irrational the first conflict arose when he tried to drive away, she kicked out his windows, he then pushed her to the ground leaving her with large bruises and minor scrapes. The second incident occurred when my brother (11) was found eavesdropping on an argument they were having while she was drunk he got mad and punched her before driving 6 hours away and not speaking to her for days, when contact was made they decided my grandma (who raised me) was the issue I decided to move in with them because of my brother within the first 6 months of living with them they got into 3 fights and abusive confrontations. My mom’s friend who had come to live with us had originally planned on buying her own house but decided to support my mom until these problems began. My mom drove drunk multiple times, attempted to kill herself got ordered to go to therapy, didn’t go and quit her job safe to say I was ready to move and so was my brother, however my grandma having raised me allowed me to move back alone because she only has enough room for 1 other person my mom found out and flipped shit saying I was no longer her son and to not contact her again, to which I obliged and blocked her number around 2 weeks later she called my number and said if you want a phone then you have to unblock me or im not paying(my money was sent to cover the bill for my part of the phone she did not pay for it). I said if thats how she felt to cancel my my phone plan and make it cheaper on me to get a new plan so she did and that was the last I had heard until around 3 hours ago her and her husband got into another argument, which resulted in him breaking her nose and leaving giant marks before running out of the house she refused to call the police so my 11 year old brother had to report it secretly. Upon talking to her I relayed my thoughts and told her I don’t feel bad im no longer her son and therefore have no attachment whatsoever but was worried about my brother. AITAH for not caring about my mothers abuse?

Hi everyone. I’m reaching out because I am so scared I have undiagnosed endometrial cancer. I’m a 29F and got diagnosed with atypical endometrial hyperplasia after I got a D&C.
I started with heavy bleeding, had to go to the ER, and then referred to an OB that could help me. I did have an original ultrasound that showed my lining being 15.5mm thick. After, I did my D&C and got my diagnosis. My doc put the IUD with progesterone in me in hopes it would treat the hyperplasia. It was doing fine, but then I started bleeding again (lightly this time). I stopped bleeding right before my doc did a barbaric biopsy 4/12 and low and behold, I was bleeding again after. Thankfully, the biopsy came back with simple hyperplasia with no atypia. BUTTTT I am still lightly bleeding bigh sigh.
I went back in this Monday for the doc to check me. He said it’s light bleeding and wants me to take Motrin 3x a day for a week. If my bleeding persists, he wants to take out the IUD and do another hysteroscopy. I am paranoid and scared so I scheduled the IUD removal for this Tuesday and then we will schedule my second hysteroscopy to check for EC. I do have a choice of a hysterectomy but I can’t help but want one more child. I have a 5 year old that I adore but my pregnancy was miserable. I was robbed of a beautiful experience and just want to have a second chance. If it’s not in the cards for me, then I’ll be okay with it, because my son needs his mom. I just don’t know what to do. I’m feeling so helpless and hopeless.
I also can help but feel my OB or PCP aren’t doing enough. If cancer hasn’t been ruled out, why hasn’t anyone referred me to specialists or even suggested I get an MRI?
Any suggestions, advice, guidance would be helpful. TIA.

I think I remember someone mentioning that Preston’s dad unfollowed Kyra after the Chicago trip, and his mom never looks happy in the photos where Kyra is in them and still talks to Hannah on socials. I never hear his parents mentioned, only Kyra’s dad. Just makes me wonder. I couldn’t imagine enabling my son’s behavior after watching him become someone I didn’t even know within a span of 2 years. I’m imagining the relationship isn’t great, that’s just what I’m gathering.

Doing a rewatch of this series and I never realized how little interactions Janelle and Robyn have on screen. I'm not sure how often they interacted off screen but I'm betting not very much and I think it's because Janelle could see right through Robyn's manipulation. I don't Robyn is a mastermind but she doesn't have to be to be a skilled manipulator which she is. She knows exactly which buttons to push on Kody, Meri, and Christine. Meri she was a friend to, for Kody she feeds into his ego and plays the innocent wife he needs to protect while reinforcing his need for loyalty and keeping his occupied with sex, and for Christine, Robyn leaned into Christine's feelings of being jealous and less than, pretending to be a friend while also playing up how much Christine's "jealousy" (which was really her asking for equal time and emotional effort form her husband) hurt her. Janelle doesn't have those same buttons. She's pretty easy-going and was seemingly Kody's confidant even after Robyn joined. Janelle mentions how Kody said that he didn't consider himself married to Meri and how he wasn't attracted to Christine so she was still his confidant as late as like Season 15 or 16.
Meri seemed to be the head of the wives, as Kody seemed to favor her a lot early on, essentially letting her have the last word or the role of getting the other wives and children in order. Christine was undoubtedly the organizer who planned the holidays and events and made things special for the kids, while also being the primary caregiver for the OG13. Even Gabe mentions that he and his siblings used to go over to Christine's all the time while they were in Vegas, just to say hi or get food from her fridge and that's why she had such a hard in Flagstaff because she essentially lost all of her kids (she and the kids all seem to consider her a strongother figure to them). Janelle was the workhorse: she did the finances, worked very hard, and had the majority of all the sons (which I'm sure Kody loooooved) while also being best friends with Kody.
Robyn sabotaged each of them. She took over as Head Wife from Meri, systematically broke down each of the family's traditions and holidays that Christine had established and replaced them with her own so she was the "true Mom", and she took over being Kody's favorite...but she couldn't fully replace Janelle in Kody's eyes. Janelle was still important to him even until she separated from him and true to the insult Kody tried to use to demean her, all of Robyn's manipulations slid right off Janelle. I think it's why Robyn avoided Janelle and seemed very intimidated by her. Janelle doesn't have any visible buttons besides her kids and Robyn had beef with every single one of them, which is ridiculous as she's a grown woman fighting with children. Robyn yells that Maddie can move out if she doesn't want to sign the family statement, never forgave Hunter for not being happier when she was pregnant, and hated Garrison and Gabe for calling her out on making the COVID rules and monopolizing Kody's time and attention. The only thing Robyn could do was attack Janelle's kids and she sure did.
All said, Janelle never seemed to deal with Robyn's shit and seemed completely immune to the manipulation. I completely understand and have sympathy for Meri and Christine being swept up in it because I think they shared their insecurities in good faith that Robyn would be a friend and not the viper she is. The Teflon Queen let all the mud Robyn was slinging slide right off.
I'm not saying any of them are perfect and they've all made mistakes but I'm in awe of Janelle's ability to keep a level head and not let someone challenge her confident view of herself. One day I hope I'm as confident and self-assured myself. Wear that Teflon Queen badge with honor and you go Queen!!

Background : I am 21M about to turn 22. I am a recent engg. grad. I earn well for my experience (atleast according to standards of my country). I have a brother (15M) and Mom (43). My dad passed away 2 years back and my mom was always a stay-at-home-mom/doing gigs as a hobby, never as a neccessity.
My mom started to work when my dad passed but was treated v. poorly at the workplace she joined and was paid pennies for working 8-9hrs. She was fired after 6 months. She's been unemployed since then. I want her to have a comfortable life and I earn enough to provide (although at the cost of delaying my own plans for future). Recently she's started taking things for granted, asking for more and more money. Made me join a job that I hated when I got laid off just because "I should not forget that I have responsibilites" which I don't disagree. She just lays around at home doing nothing, not even the gigs she used to do. I asked her to get a job or atleast do something productive (not asking to make money, just do something atleast, start a venture, just anything other than laying around) where she starts crying and being emotional and says "Have I become a burden to everyone", "Pay me back for the years I spent raising you", "You're being hurtful", I don't know how to answer to that.
I endup becoming the villan. My brother says that I am being a tyrant just because I earn and provide doesn't mean I get to tell them what to do. My mom gossips to my nan (her mom) where I am portrayed as a bad son who in turn gossips to my aunts. None of them know or care about what I went through or am going through. I didn't come home for 6-7 months after my dad died and no one bothered to call. Not even my brother and mom (apart from the occasional one from her). My brother's a teen and I know kids that age have "f*ck you stay away you worthless pos" attitude towards authority figures but goddamn does it hurt. I feel like an ATM being tossed around.
My dad left some property which now my mom owns. I asked for a loan on my half of the inheritance to my mom for masters (I can't get an education loan without collateral or really bad terms) she agreed first but stated that I would be abandoning any right to the inheritance if she does that which I agreed to but later she refused stating its her property and my half is the of what will be left of it and my brother needs it more than me for his education (I paid for my own college fees). Whatever's left after that will be divided.
I feel like my mom's the kid and I'm the parent. I see everyone my age cruising around, getting a break and I envy them. Yes I make waaaaaaay more than what my peers by god's grace make but that's at the cost of my mental health. Also making money amounts to nothing since all my money goes to my family.
Am I greedy or irresponsible for wanting a break? How do I deal with this.

How do you make sure your builds in survival won’t be ruined by skellies or brutes? I never want to put much time in my builds bc of this but then I come to reddit and I see everyone going all out and building long railways and things that would surely be near brutes and enemies with dynomite. And even bears are destructive. I’m also confused with people who live in the cold biome. What am I missing? I’m a new gamer, older 30s, a “mom trying to get into Fortnite for son but not skilled enough for BR”. 😎 🧠 🖐️ 🛑

Am I the jerk for dyeing my mom and not paying the bail let me explain.
I’m a 34 year old man and I have a girlfriend and a son so one day we are leaveing to Las Vegas and two days in the trip I get a camera alert I check it and I see my mom in my house now this is nothing because she packed a day ago and I said yes and she knows the lock code.
But later I get a Bank account alert saying there’s a 7 thousand dollar removal from my account and my bank called me and said my mom said she packed me and they said yes to it.
So the next day my family leaves Las Vegas and we go home and I see my mom smoking in my house and I was mad then my mom said oh hi guys then I say give my money back.
My mom looks at me with a different kind of crazy and she says no your my son and your money and your girlfriends money is my money then she slaps me.
Then I push her out of my home the next day I start the process of sueing her I get my lawyer and then the day of the court starts as everything is going on my mom yells that I was trying to kill her.
Then my lawyer shows my camera footage showing that she took my money and showing that she slapped me.
A day later my mom goes to jail and is now serving 7 years and her call was to me and she says it’s time you did your sonly duties by bailing me out.
Then a month later she somehow calls me again acting the same thing and I say hell no you took money from me and my girlfriend so this is what you deserve.
Now up to today my mom is still in jail for another 5 years so tell me and I the jerk or was what I did was right.

My whole life my mom has favored my older sister.
All my parents’ friends know that my sister is a lawyer. I will be asked if I’m the lawyer and when I say no, I’m the teacher, you can hear crickets. It’s like they didn’t even know I existed and don’t know what to say.
Another example: I went back to school to get my second credential for special education in early childhood. My mom kept telling me that dad is not good and to quit to help her help him. But my sister decided to run for office as a District Attorney right before my dad died. My mom decides to help my sister run for office because “it was a life long dream of hers (sister’s dream). I turned in my last assignment 4 week early so I could help more with my dad. (BTW, I have young children and worked a teaching job with a teaching partner for 50% contract. I never slept during that time.)
Today, my mom went to a music thing at my son’s school with me. I saw a former family of mine and student. I talked for a minute or two, then walked away to join my mom and daughter to get my son from his classroom. I told her they were a former family. She starts talking rude to me and said, “You didn’t introduce me to them.” I said, “I didn’t think about.” Mom said: “you never do.” Me: “I’m sorry I’m not perfect like my sister.” Mom: “No, you’re not and you never will be.” Me: “I know and I have accepted it.” And walk away into the building to get my son. I decided I’m not getting in the same car as her. So, I called my husband to pick us up now. I didn’t tell my mom we were leaving. *** there are two entrances/exits to the building and my mom didn’t know about it.
I just wanted to let out. And the sad part is I haven’t shed a tear. I wish my dad was still here.
