AITA for reiterating my house rules to my in-laws?

My husband and I take our shoes off in our house. Every time my mother-in-law has visited our house she has found a way to walk through the house in her shoes. She is not just forgetting--she is making conscious decisions (I won't go into detail, but it's not just forgetfulness).

The last time she was in our house was 2 years ago Thanksgiving. She purposefully walked through the living room in shoes. She hasn't been back to our house due to the pandemic, but even before COVID I was adamant with my husband that I would have a serious discussion with her before she could come in again.

The in-laws want to come for Thanksgiving this year. I sent them a message reiterating that they need to follow this house rule or we will be meeting them in hotels and AirBnBs from now on. Here's an excerpt (included since tone is important): 'I have to remind everyone that we take our shoes off in the house.

No exceptions. That means every single time, you wear shoes outside, no shoes inside. I will have a chair by the door so you can sit to put your shoes off and on.

99% of our guests respect this rule, and I hope I can have a stress-free Thanksgiving knowing that my guests respect the one house rule that I ask them to follow. Last Thanksgiving we hosted, I felt I had to be constantly vigilant, and that is stressful and means that I don't enjoy the holiday with my in-law family. I hope to have a peaceful, stress-free holiday, and that we can continue to invite guests into our home.

If not, we will need to meet people who wear shoes in our home at Air BnBs and hotels, and not in our home.' They told my husband they feel unwelcome now. Husband and brother-in-law say I was abrasive and aggressive. I was genuinely trying to assert my house rules without being mean.

I do struggle with expressing myself and I do want a respectful relationship...

AITA because I charged my son for tickets I got for free?

First the set up.. I'm a single mom to three boys 18, 13, and 12. My oldest graduated last year and is currently living at home for free while he goes to school and works so he can save.

Next the problem... Sometimes for work I get perks for doing well or just because. The other day I won tickets to an event that I was on the fence about going to so I was planning on selling to a coworker who said he'd buy them if I decided not to go. I was leaning towards that option because the extra money would be nice to have a little more to play with in the family fun account.

Anyway before I could sell the tickets my oldest son saw them and asked me for them so he and his girlfriend could go. I told him a guy from work offered to buy them but if he wanted them he could buy them from me instead. My son told me he didn't have the money in his budget for them but he really wants to go and if I could just give them to him. I said no this is a part of being adult sometimes who just can't afford things. He pleaded some more and I felt bad so I said he could "buy" the tickets by watching his brothers while I went on an overnight with my sister (I don't like leaving the youngest 2 by themselves overnight)and I'll even throw a $50 gift card so they could get something to eat before. He agreed right away and I gave him the tickets. I thought it would be a win win win.

My son goes to the event and they have a great time.
When the weekend of my overnight comes. I get snacks and leave pizza money with a note to everyone one with all the info we discussed along with the name of the hotel. Then I leave before the boys get home from school. I'm at the hotel having a good time when...

AITA for making my kid's teacher "collateral damage"?

Getting a divorce is easy but dealing with it afterwards is harder. My son's mother and I have been divorced since January. There is a lot of bad blood on her end because she didn't get what she wanted. What she wanted was insane and what I got was fair.

I just want to move on and co-parent our 7yo son. He's been largely unaffected by it. Long story short, I found out that his teacher had been going back and forth with my ex regarding our son. I was not copied.

I went straight to the teacher and reminded her that there was no excuse to exclude me on matters regarding my son. She tried correcting me that the emails were not about my son per se, but classroom matters. So I corrected her back and asked is my son not in her classroom?

She admitted that she was wrong and it wasn't on purpose. It was just that my ex is always emailing her but that's better and more comfortable than having her do it in person.

I asked her what stuff was my ex talking about and she said "your divorce and the drama." I was angry that my ex would discuss personal matters with someone that I have to deal with so I went to the principal.

The principal agreed that my ex shouldn't be discussing stuff like money and trashing me to the teacher. It has zero relevance to our son's education and a waste of time. Apparently the principal told my kid's teacher she's to limit the scope of conversations with my ex and to copy me on every email. There were probably some things omitted by the teacher because the next time I saw her, she said that all she did was try to support my ex and now her classroom is collateral damage.

AITA for refusing to eat my bf's food?

I'm quite eager when It comes to sports (I do mainly fencing, yoga and tennis/badminton, but I try to do something different now and then.) I never really cared for the diet that much, probably as I eat relatively healthy save it for my sweet tooth.

My bf has it covered all. He playes ice-hockey, so there slightly different "expectations" and he really likes eating proper, gains that, gains this.

When we met my eating habits were a big surprise for him. He tried to "correct" them (like trying to minimalise my snack before sleep), but it either didn't work out (I couldn't sleep with my stomach being empty) or I refused. Eventually he agreed it was a bit stupid and we had giggles about the absurdity.

Last winter I suffered from n__ty pneumonia and then, right before corona my cat almost bit off my finger, it got swollen because of the infection and my whole forearm was immovable. I could only walk, but since my lungs were still sensitive, it wasn't the greatest option either.

I was grumpy and since I tend to eat a lot when pi**ed off, I decide to cook different meals and eat more healthy? Lots of veggies and vegan/plant based recipes etc. I sneaked some cake here and there, but it wasn't that frequent.

As soon as I my hand started to like me again, I slowly began exercising, switching to my old way of eating. Instead of me, my bf was now the grumpy one. He supposed I'd stick to the old "diet" for enternity. We didn't see each other much, not living together, so he couldn't do much.

The trouble is since the restrictions loosed up, my bf's really nagged me. Immensely. When shopping alone he doesn't buy anything sweet for me, when we go together I almost have to explain every single item I put there. Leading to me shopping alone and barely eating at his place, as he cooks ultra protein thingies, and I don't really eat meat.

My blood was boiling when...

AITA for being upset that my wife told me she hated the necklace my kids and I picked out for her for Mother's Day?

A little background, I hadn't gotten my wife jewelry in a long time. We don't have a lot of expendable income. This year we had some extra money, so I thought for Mother's Day, I would suprise her with a family necklace with our kid's birthstones in it. The birth order of our kids would make the stones Opal, Sapphire, Sapphire. After I start searching designs, she announces that this is what she wants for mother's day. Since I already found a design I liked and the kids liked, I showed her in private, she says she hates it. Fair enough, money has not been spent, I ask her to give me some ideas of what she likes. She sends me a couple designs. I work with the kids, try to place the stones S, O, S to give the stones variation, my oldest is upset and wants the stones to be in birth order. I find a design that looks nice (one that she sent) and lay the stones out in birth order so my kids can feel like they designed it as well. Order the necklace, am happy to suprise her with it. She gets it on Mother's day, complains that the chain is too thin (no s__t, it is the free chain, that can be fixed). Then, when kids are gone, tells me she hates it, it looks like a set of blue balls and she won't wear it. Now I am in the process of going through the return and feeling like I don't EVER want to buy her a piece of jewelry again. AITA for being upset that she acted like it was total piece of trash? It was not a cheap necklace and it looked good in my opinion.

Edit 1: wow. This definitely blew up more than I ever thought it would. It definitely has given me perspective on the whole thing and hearkens back to some communication issues that exist in our marriage. Thanks for all the replies, there is definitely some work that needs to be done between the two...

AITA for telling my coworker no I won't trade shifts?

I (f34) have been at my current job for almost a year now, but I have worked in the hotel industry for almost 10 years now. As a result I have learned not to ever plan to have a holiday off. During this time I have never had Christmas, Thanksgiving, or New Years off.

That holidays will almost always go to coworkers that have kids first. Well onto my conundrum. My coworker (m55) approached me about trading shifts for Christmas.

I lucked out immensely this year and got the 23-25 off. Mainly because another coworker has gone on vacation and won't be back until that time. My coworker approached me last night asking me if I had plans.

Which I do, planning to the parental units, they both had 2 rounds of covid and I had one. So I want to see them for one holiday at least. So I told him as such.

And he then asked me if I was willing to trade shifts. I'm really not, he then said he should get it off because he has kids, although they are grown, and he has seniority. Which massively rubbed me the wrong way.

So am I the a__hole for telling my coworker no that I wouldn't trade shifts so he can spend time with his family? Edit 1: Since some people have mentioned this in posts. This was posted as a preliminary schedule around a month ago.

Was posted that if any changes or concerns needed to be addressed then. Coworker also told me that he thought Christmas was Sunday and not Saturday this year. A few people have said that I requested the day.

Which I didn't. I actually like working most holidays as I get holiday pay.(This is like the second job that has in all my time working hotels.) Edit 2: I hate doing edits but things have changed a little. So talked to him tonight as I was relieving him from his shift.

He apologized for the seniority crack. He said he was joking and...

AITA for agreeing with my family’s unhappiness about my cousins pregnancy?

My (31f) younger cousin (28f) recently found out she is pregnant. She is really excited. But…she found out she is having triplets… the dad (45m) is a real piece of work and won’t be in the picture (and can’t offer financial support), she doesn’t make very much money and she has no savings. I myself have 2 kids and even with the financial and emotional support of my partner it can be very stressful.

Over the past few weeks I’ve gently tried to tell her that it may not be green pastures ahead. She doesn’t even have a functional car right now. It’s like her head is stuck in the sand and she’s only talking about how amazing it will be, how blessed she is, how it’s a miracle, how she’ll just “figure it out.”

On Christmas Eve she surprised the rest of the family with the news after doing a big surprise scavenger hunt that led to 3 onesies. Her mom already knew but told grandparents, cousins, aunts, uncles, etc. She didn’t get the reaction she was hoping for. Some people told her she should consider her options like adoption or a__rtion (even though some are very conservative and pro life), some talked to her about how hard this will be, asked about how she will afford this, wanted to know what support the dad would be giving, etc. It was not very celebratory. I could tell she was upset and she left early.

I went to talk to her this morning in her (studio) apartment. I told her I was sorry for everyone’s reaction but that I could see where the family was coming from and that they just wanted the best for her and were concerned. I asked her what she expected the reaction to be and she told me she thought everyone would rally together to help her now and to offer a bunch of help once the babies arrived. She expected financial support too. I told her that she can’t rely on others like that and she will likely have to figure...
