Every kid with siblings knows that their parents have a favorite child, and most of the time, they also know who the favorite child is. As a middle child myself, I can tell you for a fact that I am not my parent’s favorite kid, and I probably never stood a chance. Despite being the …

Tradwife stay-at-home mom berates her brother for being a stay-at-home dad to his 2 kids, insists that he babysit her 5 kids: ‘[Our mom] suggested that I could be a positive influence on my sister’s kids so they’d grow up being less judgmental’
Insisting on specific gender roles for everyone around you is so foolish. I love being a feminine woman and wearing dresses, but I would never insist that every woman needs to wear dresses to look good. Yet, so many family structures are predicated on the idea that straying from prescribed gendered paths in any way …

26-year-old stepdaughter accuses her dad’s wife of being illiterate after she took a month to fill out her dad’s FMLA forms: ‘You know you’re illiterate so let me just do the paperwork’
Far more adults in the United States are functionally illiterate than you may realize. 54% of US adults have a literacy rate below a 6th-grade level, and about 43 million are functionally illiterate.

Dad allows his 7-year-old daughter to stay up all night after she constantly resisted her 10 PM bedtime, cries from exhaustion during her after school activities: ‘My wife questioned my parenting technique’
Sleep hygiene is developed extremely early in life. My parents insisted that I go to bed by 8 PM until I was in 4th grade. I remember thinking how absurd it was because everyone else in my class stayed up until at least 9 PM on school nights. I might have complained about it then, …

It’s so wild when a 60-something-year-old adult expects their lifelong habits never to bite them in the rear end. If you ate horribly your whole life and never exercised, you shouldn’t be surprised when you have health issues when you age. While the biological clock waits for no man, you might think you’re above man-made …

Brother refuses to loan sister money for her divorce after she cheats on her husband with her boss, leading to a dispute when parents sides with sister: ‘They think I am too harsh’
‘Every action has an equal and opposite reaction’ which is simply, more modern words, basically means that your actions have consequences. When one does something bad, then something bad might just happen to them in return. If a person decides to cheat on their partner, for example, there should absolutely be consequences to that. There …

‘I should ask mom, dads never know’: ER doctor assumes dad doesn’t know any his son’s medical information, asks mom to check the forms instead
The dopey sitcom Dad has been the archetypal American father for some time. He’s more interested in drinking a beer and watching the game than hanging out with his kids. He’s not that smart, and he doesn’t want to be. His work is lengthy and unfulfilling, and although he loves his family, they are incidental …

Dad punishes 7-year-old daughter for stealing neighbor’s puppy, doubles down on punishment after neighbor says their son lost the puppy: ‘It’s the principle, and she should listen to her father’
It’s difficult to tell whether a kid is lying. Many kids lie recreationally, just because they’re in the mood to make something up or report an interesting happening that didn’t happen. But it would be remiss to assume that kids lie more often then they tell the truth. If you assume the worst when a …
