AITA for not taking my nieces to the park after the way my SIL treated me?

I 28F have an older brother who's married and have two kids. My brother and I have always been close and I adore their kids. I don't have children of my own yet (my husband and I have been married for 4 years and we've been trying to conceive for 2 years now). they often ask me to babysit. I also take them to the park sometimes or just hang out with them to give my brother and his wife a break.

Everything was great until last weekend. I had planned to take my nieces to the park for a couple of hours. My SIL called me in the morning and asked if I could pick up some groceries for them on my way over. I agreed no problem. When I got to their house with the groceries my SIL was visibly annoyed. She started going off about how I got the wrong brand of butter and that the fruit I bought wasn’t fresh. She even complained that I was few minutes late which was because of the extra stop I made for the groceries.

I tried to brush it off but she just kept going making comments about how "don’t understand the stress of raising kids" I finally snapped and told her she should be grateful I’m even helping out. She said she doesn't need my help if I'm going to have an attitude. I told her to deal with her own groceries and left without taking the kids to the park.

Now my brother is upset with me for "abandoning" (edit: sorry I meant to say "punishing" not abandoning) the kids and not keeping my promise to them. He says I should have just let my SIL’s comments slide for the sake of the kids. I feel bad about disappointing my nieces but I also feel like I shouldn’t have to put up with that kind of treatment.

AITA for deciding to stay with my dad because I don't want to spend time with my stepbrother?

My wife (32F) and I (33M) have been married for 4 years and together for 10. A couple of years ago, I struggled with ED as work was getting really stressful. I was prescribed meds for it. It was really embarrassing for me, and our s__ life declined for a few months. However, after a few months, I was slowly getting back to normal, and my wife and mine’s s__ life improved dramatically. It was also no coincidence that work was much less stressful. But, I asked my wife then if we could keep this private between us as it was still somewhat embarrassing for me, and wife agreed.

But a couple of weeks ago, I heard from one of my friends (32M) about my ED issues. My friend and I were pretty close and we usually joke about such stuff and don’t take it too seriously. But he knew this because my wife was friends with his wife, and my wife told her about it. I asked my wife that evening why she told such a private matter about me to her friends, and she apologized and said she didn’t think it was a big deal. I asked her how many friends she had told his to, and she was initially hesitant to say how many, but she said that she had told it to her friend group which was around 6 people, and that they were just joking around.

AITA for telling someone I hope they die soon

AITA? Today my fiancé and I were waiting for our coffees at a cafe down by the beach. We were waiting on an outdoor seating area. I was sitting on the bench seat and he was sitting on the table. I should mention these tables are always grubby and generally have bird poo on them.

We were mid conversation when a woman comes up from behind us and steam rolls herself into our conversation saying ‘excuse me but I’m going to need you to get your ass off the table, it’s disgusting and my friends and I want to eat some lunch here.’

We were both in a bit of shock at first. She didn’t give us a moment to respond before saying my partner was dirty and disrespectful to be sitting on the table like that. My partner is such a kind man and it really upset me to see him being spoken to like this. This lady just sat down at our table and started insulting us.

My partner said it’s a causal place and it’s commonly done, (no shirt, no shoes sort of vibe) not a fancy restaurant, and no he wouldn’t be moving. We turned back around and tried to continue our conversation but the lady kept antagonising us. Have I mentioned she was dressed head to toe in purple with accompanying purple hand bag and water bottle? Not sure if relevant but just some extra details about her.

I ended up snapping and telling her she was the worst person I have ever come across and asked her how miserable must she be to be so rude to us like this. She kept going calling us disgusting and a few other things, saying she was raised better in her day etc. We are both in our early thirties, not children. I don’t know, call me ignorant but I never would have thought it was so offensive to sit on a table at the beach. Our coffees were called and so we got up and left but not before I told her...

AITA for trying to convince my wife to keep her mom away from us because she wants us to swap kids with her other daughter?

Twins run in both our families. We actually met at a twin festival in Ohio.

My brother and I did not marry twin sisters, or even sisters from the same family. But my wife does have a twin. And her sister had twins. As did we.

We have twin boys that are about six months older than their female cousins. It makes for some very cute pictures.

My mother in law might be insane. She is trying to convince her daughters to trade. Like a boy for a girl. So each girl can have a brother I guess. I think it is the craziest thing I've ever heard. My wife also agrees but won't tell her mom to drop it. My sister in law and her husband are on my side. It isn't something that any of us are entertaining.

At first I thought she was just making a joke. No such luck. She is seriously proposing this.

The thing that might make me an a__hole isn't turning down this whack job. It telling my wife it might be a good idea to distance ourselves from her mom. My wife loves her mom and her foibles. She says it's just the way she is. I don't want my kids around someone so unstable that they think this is a normal thing to suggest.

EDIT

I need to make it clear that I did tell my mother in law that this was not going to happen and to stop bringing it up. it is my wife that will not.

My husband says ANYONE but me would have found this funny?

We're watching One Life. Movie about the holocaust and saving children hopefully you've seen it. When we started it I reminded him that i am particularly sensitive to anything holocaust related. Anyway, the part where people are writing in about being willing to foster. One letter says "we can take a boy, under 11, preferably brown hair". I say, "that's fu**ed. Can you imagine? These babies are at risk of death. And you're worried about their hair color?" His response, "yeah, lol, I'd like a girl, 18, blonde hair".
I am totally disgusted. You know those moments where you just lose respect for someone. I'm sorry, but that was one for me. Just..... gross and sooo disrespectful to not only the topic, but to me as his wife.
So, reddit, he swears anyone on earth but me would have laughed. If I'm wrong, ok. What say you?

TLDR: My husband thought it was funny to joke about fostering an 18 year old blonde trying to escape the holocaust, I did NOT laugh.

Update: I guess.

To those who were as bothered as me, obviously I hear you. Same.
To those who felt the need to say things that only demeaned me and women in general, and adding things like, "I feel sorry for your husband", you guys are ridiculous. I pay half the bills, sometimes all when circumstances have called for it, I raise our children, including the ones that are not biologically mine, I clean the house, I cook every meal that man puts in his mouth, i am more s__ually needy than he ever thought about being, and i make him laugh to the point of tears often. Feel sorry for him?? Ok. Lol. The red pill energy is strong in some of yall.
My biggest thanks is to the men who helped put his words in perspective, kindly. I appreciate you more than you know. I love this man. I do. I want to believe the best in him. Which is why this threw me so badly. You guys helped me to see that...

AITAH for not taking my kid's friend to 7-11 because he never says thank you?

My son is 12. He has a good friend (also 12) who he's been friends with for years- since they were toddlers.

They do a lot together, and I end up picking up/dropping off and paying for everything most of the time. I'm friendly with the parents, but they both work a lot. So it's easier for me to facilitate things. I don't mind. But, the kid has never, not once, said thank you for anything. Ever.

I drop the friend off after school every day, to help his parents out. Sometimes my son asks me to take them to 7-11 for a treat after school. So I do this a lot. The kid never, not once, has said thank you. It's starting to irritate me- to the extent that I don't want to keep spending $$ on this kid.

Yesterday my son again asked to go to 7-11, and I said no- I made up an excuse .But really I just didn't want to spend extra $$ on this seemingly ungrateful kid.

AITAH? Writing this out, I'm starting to realize that IATH. It's petty- right? Why does it bother me so much??? He's just a kid. I should also note- I don't parent other people's kids (unless there is danger involved). So, I would never prompt him to say thank you. It's just not my style. I'd rather just complain on reddit.

[UPDATE] AITA for not taking my nieces to the park after the way my SIL treated me?

I couldn't wait until the weekend I wanted to see my nieces and apologize for not taking them to the park last time. Yesterday I decided to go see them after work. My husband's car is being serviced and I pick him up from work since so he went with me. I brought the girls some toys on my way to their house as an apology.

When I got there my nieces greeted me just like usual. They were excited to see me but I noticed the older one kept turning around to look at her mother while hugging me. The younger one always puts both my brother and his wife in embarrassing moments by blurting out things they said or did in front of everyone during family gatherings. I was talking with them when she said something along the lines of "You hate Mommy. I told her you don't" I told her that of course I don't hate her and tried to brush it off. My SIL immediately snatched my younger niece's hand from mine and said she needed to wash her hands (they were eating chocolate).

Anyway When my husband and I were about to leave my SIL asked me if we could talk for a moment. She didn't bother to try and apologize. She said that I shouldn't have left and that's not how things work with kids. I told her that maybe if she didn't act the way she did I wouldn't have left. She said "Just saying. if you ever have kids of your own you will get what I mean." Like what the hell was that supposed to mean (If you ever? She knows I'm struggling with fertility. I may be too sensitive but I believe people can choose their words carefully if they want to) I told her not to worry because I know I'm going to do a good job with my kids and she went on with "I know you will. The kids love you and I know for sure if you ever have any of your own they...
