I need an update on story 1 in like 10 years when OP has talked to a therapist about why he "still has those urges" and is living the best princess-dress-wearing life imaginable
I think that story 3 revenge is some of the most beautiful I've heard on this channel. So beautiful, so subtle. So unlikely of it ever being traced back to the OP. Genius.
The same thing happened to my in-laws, they didn't fall for it. They asked the scammers for their grandson birthday.. He hung up right away. I love this lady, keep doing you Grandma..
Story 1: i really hope OP is still good friends with Paul Also, cant help but chuckle that the younger brother ended up a muscly sports-favoring gay guy. My mind immediately goes to him telling their dad "You encouraged this, surrounding me with strong, muscly men all my life" lol
When I was performing with my ballet troupe, there was always at least one of our male dancers with a dad such as the one in the first story. They’d show up at the studio or at the theater and pull the whole “I have no son! I have no son!” schtick, it was horrible.
For story 2 the baby is still a newborn, so all the hormones in the mothers body are all over the place. And she likely has severe postpartum depression or at least anxiety; the safest place for the baby is in her womb and now her daughter is out in the world. It’s scary. Every second she’s awake she’s probably making sure her baby is still breathing etc. It also hasn’t been long at all, the baby likely needs to be fed every few hours (which is concerning to lock a baby in a room, in the case the mother is breastfeeding). A way you can integrate bonding with baby time can be simple. You can ask to hold your wife while she holds the baby at first. It won’t be the same ofc but it’s a start. And then can eventually hold the baby while sitting beside her and transfer baby over anytime she gets scared. And she will get used to it; it’s exposure therapy. Postpartum anxiety is huge. She likely feels some great danger and possibly even death will occur if her baby is not with her. Taking the baby AND locking the door is the worst possible way. What if the dad falls asleep, now he and the baby are in there and if they baby is hungry or if it chokes or anything while no one is watching it, that terror the mother must have felt is unimaginable. And the fact he stayed there for hours with the baby. Easily could have fallen asleep. Also during that time the baby was. Or eating, and generally newborns need to eat frequently so that’s super dangerous. While yes it sucks you can’t bond the way you want to right away, you do your best to bond when you can and you work on getting ur wife more comfortable with being separated. In this situation you entirely betrayed her trust, and even worse you put her baby in what she thought would be grave danger. There is nothing worse. Yes it sucks you can’t bond exactly how you want to and yes she likely needs some therapy or at least some additional help, it’s so soon into the birth, you will have years upon years to bond with your child.
I noticed OP said his wife fell asleep on the couch with the baby, isn't that dangerous or something? Btw, I noticed you kept saying her baby, but isn't it their baby? Unless you were saying it from the point of view of someone with postpartum or something, yeah, it's both of theirs baby. I will agree there were better ways for him to go about what he did. But considering he said she hasn't been self caring, it seems like she needs therapy and also sleep. They both need to do better and communicate.
@@matthewenfinger766 just saying from POV of postpartum like being so fresh after delivering. Like a mother protects her child type shit. And agreed it’s dangerous she did, the same way it’s dangerous for him to lock the baby in a room. Her falling asleep I think would have created a good conversation about the baby’s safety tbh
@@matthewenfinger766 she probably wasn't holding the baby. Most people have a pack and play bed by the couch that they baby sleeps in while they nap. He wouldn't have been able to take the baby otherwise
I didn’t know there was more to post partum. I always thought post partum was the mother not thinking she was good enough and didn’t want anything to do with the baby or didn’t see the baby as her own. That type of behavior. I didn’t know it encompassed the hyper protection of the baby even from the father. Hearing it I feel that should be another diagnosis but like I said I thought that the first part was the only thing it was. If anyone knows more about what else it entails lmk.
Oh yeah there's a whole lot to postpartum depression than I think a good chunk of people realize. I'm not an expert nor have I had children of my own but these are things I learned: There's several factors that could cause the depression like a sudden change in a woman's hormones, genetics, the stress of having to take care of the baby (especially if the mother has no support group), and other things. There's also the fact that in rare cases Postpartum Depression could turn into Postpartum Psychosis which needs immediate medical intervention. But again it's a rarer phenomenon. And like PPD shows itself as different symptoms like anxiety, lack of energy for activities, sleeping issues, and like you said doubts in ability to care for the baby.
What the dad did probably just put her into a psychosis. What he did was abuse. Also he starved the baby for hours just to punish his wife. Newborns eat hourly. He didn't feed it for MULTIPLE hours. No wonder she's so protectiveve
I feel like if I were to ever have a kid on a holiday, I would just name them with a name that has the first letter of the holiday. That’s it. I would make celebrating that holiday a huge experience, cause I don’t want them to be consumed by the holiday; in terms of my personal celebrations, I would make the holiday be consumed by my kid. Anything relating to the holiday would have a touch of my child’s interests and loves, like dinosaurs or rabbits or drawing or legos or something that my kid loves.
Story 2: if op had said something along the lines of "dont fall asleep with a newborn next to you, go take care of yourself for a while, take a shower, eat, maybe sleep. I'll be here carring for owr child till your done" it would have been a lot better then just taking her for a few hours Mother seems like she would still throw a fit, but at least it would be reasuring, a call to see reason and an attempt to show the husband wants to care for them, not steal the daughter or something
That's not possible, OP has mention- he HOLDING the child with her in the room cause hysteric Likely if he did the 'right thing' like you said, she would cancel sleep and screech for him to not touch their baby. The story is quite clear on the level of possessiveness the wife shows that make OP feel the need to kidnap his baby for quality time.
@@mattcatt1165 you never know, it seems like the bullies and their families are the hyper religious types that might freak out over something they’ve been trained to believe is satanic
Paul had got Karma for cheating on Sarah by having a daughter named Sarah. Also if Jane finds out and well Op's Sarah tells her what kind of person Paul is like how he forged Sarah's signature.
I personally don't think so. His father tried raising him in a traditionally masculine way and his response was to hurt his own father. I may not fully agree how his father went on some of the things he did but this is where OP should have tried to talk it out in a mature way with his father. OP's father only wanted the best for him, to help him be as good of a man as possible so I think he took it to far But that's just my 2 cents on the issue
@@lwandilethabethe4611 Well I mean it sounded like if OP even tried to talk to his Dad the Dad would shoot it down so yeah the rest of the family don't mind and the Dad slowly changed his ways after
@@lwandilethabethe4611 So you think being gay is hurting others? Op's dad literally stopped him from doing what he wanted. That's different from raising someone a certain way.
@@jessieBird96I kinda understand what this person means actually. They said it in a much meaner way, but she does need to consider getting help for that. I completely understand how stressed she may be and how afraid she might be, especially if that’s her first baby, but she’s not taking care of herself. On top of that, she isn’t putting trust in her husband at all. I’m not gonna say that I know how PPD works because I don’t, but I think she definitely needs to get help, before she ends up hurting herself or the baby.
Bro the guy didn’t mention anything abusive about that dad. It sounds like a big guy that probably got something form being a soldier. He just didn’t let the kid wear a dress. He taught the kid to beat up his bullies and got him martial arts lessons. That is it
I have a good story about my dad. My dad, before having me, had two children with another woman. He first had a boy, which was supposed to be named, let's say, Jack. My dad wanted to name him, let's say, Carl. When she just gave birth, she was too tired to sign the papers and all that, so she tasked my father to do so. Guess what he did.
Hey, my name is Johnnyvalentino and tbh, my friends thinks its a cool and rare name but I do get a lot of questions and the reason I am named JohnnyValentino is because my dad loves the Moto GP and Rossi Valentino so my dad said Johnnyvalentino.
Story 2- Get in touch the wifes doctor and get her treatment for postpartum depression. A non postpartum depression mother would normally be over the moon to hand the baby over for a couple of hours to a trusted person, just to have a bath and a nap.
@Charles-7 It is not a choice. When did you make the choice to be heterosexual ? I knew that I liked males when I was 7. I did not choose to like males, it just felt right to like males. When I was a teenager, I always had male friends, I have never had any female friends. When I was a teenager and preteen, I tried hard to like females, but it just never worked out that way for me.
i hope the op's father learned that you can't force your world views onto their next of kin, and the moment the kid turns 18, they allowed to do whatever they want, in a legal manner that is, and being gay is completely harmless first and foremost.
Story 2 that husband is definitely the asshole, I'm a guy and even only from his explanation it is very very clear that his wife is suffering from PPD and needs to get help, his actions are actively making it worse so even if she was getting help there is a strong strong chance that his actions in this story would set her back to day one.
Story 1: I kind of understand why the dad wouldn't want his son to dress like a girl, knowing it could cause him to get bullied. But it's very clear this piece of trash father did not have his family's best interests in mind at all. The only thing he cared about is that the world and people around him all bend to his will and change into his perfect image. This man never really wanted children, he wanted little versions of himself who'd worship him and further stroke his ego. Story 2: It was an incredibly dumb move on OPs part to willingly keep the mother away from her child. That being said, the mother was also being a jackass. If OP has not proven himself to be irresponsible or a danger to the baby, then there's no reason why he shouldn't be able to HOLD HIS OWN CHILD. I get that there's anxiety at first when you have a newborn baby but she was being ridiculous and unfair to OP, so it's not hard to imagine why he did what he did. The mother needs to talk to a therapist. Story 3: Perfect revenge. I can't imagine the audacity to takes to deceive the mother of your child regarding something she was so passionate about, WHILE SHE'S HAVING SURGERY. The fact that Paul needs to keep paying child support and will now have a constant reminder of the terrible things he did puts a smile on my face. The only thing I hate about this story is that Paul hasn't been punished more. I hope his new wife finds out about his past and leaves with their baby. I admit it may seem harsh to the new wife and the baby, but they deserve better than Paul and reversely, Paul doesn't deserve to have a lover or a child. Story 4: I'm sorry to hear that. I hope you're in a better state of mind now, OP! Given her (lack of a) reaction, I wonder if the mother even cares about her children at all. Every kid deserves a parent, but not every parent deserves a kid.

E i think im first Nice to the first story that was hilarious Second story, why, I’ve never heard of postpartnam depression but if it causes this than that must’ve been hard a little confused of what to think Third story, beautiful unfolding
The second one with the baby. Yeah not a doctor but there are some post wadda-call-its depression going on and I feel other mental problems going on as well. The wife needs some therapy.
So on the new born one he doesn’t specifically say that his wife has postpartum depression every women is postpartum after giving birth so personally after having kids myself I think the wife took this a little to far it is very important for both parents to bond with baby in the first year and that means the whole year
idk why, but people talking about "maintaining their Legacy *etc*", always reminds of Clovis Bray (fellow Guardians will understand), but he was more of a narcissist with a god complex lmao
The last one... I live with depression and anxiety to but I gets good help for it. So I am feeling good now. You deserve that to. Get help from a professional. For your sake!
Am I the jerk for yelling at my mom on how I feel that my little brother is the favorite brother. So a very long time ago like whe I was 13 and my like brother was 9. Most of the time I get yelled at for almost nothing all the time while my brother gets the easy way out. Like he brakes something and she tells my brother accidents happen. Me on the other well you get the picture. Even when I actually finish homework before bed she would yell at me saying I have a bad grade and I "had" to retake it. Even though I've had high grades. Which really annoys me and leads me into stress. And this still happens today because I am a freshman in High School. If you are in High School then you would know how stressful it is. Its bot just that either. Mu Mom forces me to do Coding, Swimming, and Cello lessons. But I do like Cello lessons. She just says "So you can get a degree so we dont have to pay a lot of money for college." Which is true but what is the point of doing so if you dont like what your doing. Shes liking trying to make life her way and no one else's. And if you dont lime them then you basically have no reason to be in collage if you dont know what your doing. Anyways I have had enough so I brought it up. At this time I was in her school office and I was sitting in a chair. Yes she is a teacher aid for the Music Department. I told her " Look, I'm done trying to pretend I dont care if you force me to do stuff that I dont even like." She says " Oh shut up. I'm doing g for what's best for you. You will thank me later." " No I won't! I'm doing acceleration in almost all of my classes, Doing lessons that I dont even like, and giving my brother almost no discipline for anything on what he has done." She said " The first accusation doesn't make sense. Two I'm doing for what's best of you and Three You do a lot more bad stuff unlike Jacob. Are you trying to make an argument for no reason. After just bringing it up?!?!" I retaliate by saying " What about Jacob always getting what he wants like you said no more Mario plushies Mason and Jacob but he got even more Mario plushies a day later while I got nothing." She says " Now that dosen't even prove a point. " This is the part where my Orchestra teacher comes in. I say " Mon what do you mean that explains nothing. It clearly states that Jacob is the favorite child. Plus do you not realize how much stuff you put me through?" " Tou think you have been a lot? My stepmom had me fist almost everything and if I didnt do it eight I had to restart." So basically she is admiting to making my life harder because of her life. % I'm just making your life better." I say. " Make my life better my butt." " That's it get out of my office." She says so I did. Even later she said that I embarrassed he in front of her boss and that I should apologize. I did only because I would be ground if I didnt and even talked to my brother about it. He even says that him bieng the favorite and I get stressed. So when I looked back at this story I start to think that I was the jerk. So am I the jerk for yelling at my mom for my brother being the favorite child and what should I do?
I've said this before, and I'll say it again: I can't stand people who act so entitled that they need to control another person's life, especially when they're family members.
Story 1. I’d be worried about he was going to take out his frustrations on the rest of the family that wasn’t able to just leave. Story 2. Ok, sooo many red flags. The effects of post-partum depression can last up to a full year and beyond. I agree that she needs some kind of therapy or counseling, and definitely needs to take into account the father’s needs as well. If she doesn’t address this constant need to be in control of her newborn’s every moment, she’s going to turn into one of those helicopter moms that we all love to hate. Story 3. I have so many feelings. Ok, for starters I srsly detest this type of misogynistic attitude about women and childbirth. Every time I hear it, I want to throw all of the death in childbirth statistics that still exist, even in today’s works of modern medicine. And not being in the room with her? Just…grrrr but yay for her being sound enough mind to see the red flags for what they were and got the hell out of that relationship ASAP. Story 4. Parents like this are the reason we have so many non-adult un-aliving these days.
Used to be ashamed but after hearing this I'm not anymore because when I was little when there was nobody looking I like to sleep in girls leotard because it felt good and no I am not gay the time I was a man I got over that Sage in my life
at the age of 8 was picked up by child protective services at school and went to my other grandmother's house my cps worker (we will call ms.evil) was paid and lied to the judge and she didn't listen to me and my siblings we were adopted by our grandma but we could have had time because my youngest sister was not born yet but put with our grandma (we will call abuser) who would abuse us mentally and physically she would tell us to sleep outside and she had me and my brother scared she would often pull his hair and hit us and call us rude names and she spoke Spanish but this went on for 3 or 4 years until I told my counselor and stayed with my nice grandma for 2 days and my abuser came to get me and my bro but couldn't until I was picked bye CPS and was put in a shelter for 3 Months and now I'm with my nice grandma and happy but my but while me andy siblings suffered ms.evil live in Italy and lived happily but my siblings I live with my bro but we have small contact with my sis and my youngest brother we don't have contact my baby sister comes to visit once in a while but I'm now 12 years old I live happy knowing I'm safe
Story #2 let the guy have a little bit of time with his own daughter. Seriously you need to see somebody about your issues that child belongs to both of you so you both should have equal amount of time with the baby and seriously call your mom you really need to go see somebody
The guy that pranked his dad, that was kind of messed up. Your father did his part in raising you and doing his best. The fact that you take pride in breaking your father it makes you worse than a jerk. You got pleasure out of hurting your dad that you yourself admits had a lot to do in who you are now. Instead of being grateful you decide to destroy him. A parent that is 100% right doesn't exist and maybe your dad was afraid of you playing for the other team, guess what most Dads are afraid of that as well. I've never met a father that was straight hope that their son would be gay. To be honest you should apologize to your dad for such an evil prank.
Uh, no? I’ve been gay for 3 years, Dad happily accepted me. He wasn’t hoping for me not to be gay, he was hoping I’d be happy with the partner I chose. I get parents fuck up, but at that point, he has to accept his son is who he wanted him to be.
is there a way to submit a story without using reddit? I'm kind of a Neanderthal when it comes to technology, I can do basic stuff on my phone and game consoles but not much else and I think my wife's life story about how her entire family has treated her since the day she was born would be a good am I the jerk story because she has absolutely no feeling for any of them other than seething hatred and wants absolutely nothing to do with any of them at all 🤔
Ok for the first one a girl can be masculine a boy can be like a girl there is no shame in it it’s who you r no one should be ashamed of it you can be who U want to be not wut others expect you to be

Story 2, that mother needs to be in counseling. She needs to figure this out, and therapy will help her.
Story 1: i really hope OP is still good friends with Paul
Also, cant help but chuckle that the younger brother ended up a muscly sports-favoring gay guy. My mind immediately goes to him telling their dad "You encouraged this, surrounding me with strong, muscly men all my life" lol

It also hasn’t been long at all, the baby likely needs to be fed every few hours (which is concerning to lock a baby in a room, in the case the mother is breastfeeding).
A way you can integrate bonding with baby time can be simple. You can ask to hold your wife while she holds the baby at first. It won’t be the same ofc but it’s a start. And then can eventually hold the baby while sitting beside her and transfer baby over anytime she gets scared. And she will get used to it; it’s exposure therapy. Postpartum anxiety is huge. She likely feels some great danger and possibly even death will occur if her baby is not with her. Taking the baby AND locking the door is the worst possible way.
What if the dad falls asleep, now he and the baby are in there and if they baby is hungry or if it chokes or anything while no one is watching it, that terror the mother must have felt is unimaginable. And the fact he stayed there for hours with the baby. Easily could have fallen asleep. Also during that time the baby was.

Hearing it I feel that should be another diagnosis but like I said I thought that the first part was the only thing it was. If anyone knows more about what else it entails lmk.
Oh yeah there's a whole lot to postpartum depression than I think a good chunk of people realize. I'm not an expert nor have I had children of my own but these are things I learned:
There's several factors that could cause the depression like a sudden change in a woman's hormones, genetics, the stress of having to take care of the baby (especially if the mother has no support group), and other things. There's also the fact that in rare cases Postpartum Depression could turn into Postpartum Psychosis which needs immediate medical intervention. But again it's a rarer phenomenon.
And like PPD shows itself as different symptoms like anxiety, lack of energy for activities, sleeping issues, and like you said doubts in ability to care for the baby.
What the dad did probably just put her into a psychosis. What he did was abuse. Also he starved the baby for hours just to punish his wife. Newborns eat hourly. He didn't feed it for MULTIPLE hours. No wonder she's so protectiveve
@@lolarichter9415 Hourly? No, every few hours.
I feel like if I were to ever have a kid on a holiday, I would just name them with a name that has the first letter of the holiday. That’s it. I would make celebrating that holiday a huge experience, cause I don’t want them to be consumed by the holiday; in terms of my personal celebrations, I would make the holiday be consumed by my kid. Anything relating to the holiday would have a touch of my child’s interests and loves, like dinosaurs or rabbits or drawing or legos or something that my kid loves.
Story 2: if op had said something along the lines of "dont fall asleep with a newborn next to you, go take care of yourself for a while, take a shower, eat, maybe sleep. I'll be here carring for owr child till your done" it would have been a lot better then just taking her for a few hours
Mother seems like she would still throw a fit, but at least it would be reasuring, a call to see reason and an attempt to show the husband wants to care for them, not steal the daughter or something
That's not possible, OP has mention- he HOLDING the child with her in the room cause hysteric
Likely if he did the 'right thing' like you said, she would cancel sleep and screech for him to not touch their baby.
The story is quite clear on the level of possessiveness the wife shows that make OP feel the need to kidnap his baby for quality time.
.k
PPD/PPP can cause mother's to get possive of their newborns.
Omg you’re so close to a million!!!🎉🎉❤❤
Ikr
I loudly chuckled at work to “My dad refused to meet my gays”.
these videos have me hooked, definitely earned a fat sub, loving the content
3rd story: op’s sister should name her son Lucifer, then the bullies would be too scared shitless to bully him
I dont think anyone is scared of a name.
@@mattcatt1165 you never know, it seems like the bullies and their families are the hyper religious types that might freak out over something they’ve been trained to believe is satanic
Paul had got Karma for cheating on Sarah by having a daughter named Sarah. Also if Jane finds out and well Op's Sarah tells her what kind of person Paul is like how he forged Sarah's signature.
5:39 “are you free mr humphries?”
As a valentine's baby. Its the worse holiday next to Christmas to be born on
Almost a million subscribers to listen to crazy stories about crazy people!
Sounds like the mum started it all
HEY, OP in the first story, you did good bro I hope you have and amazing life that you deserve
I personally don't think so. His father tried raising him in a traditionally masculine way and his response was to hurt his own father. I may not fully agree how his father went on some of the things he did but this is where OP should have tried to talk it out in a mature way with his father. OP's father only wanted the best for him, to help him be as good of a man as possible so I think he took it to far
But that's just my 2 cents on the issue
@@lwandilethabethe4611 Well I mean it sounded like if OP even tried to talk to his Dad the Dad would shoot it down so yeah the rest of the family don't mind and the Dad slowly changed his ways after
@@LaylaTalavera mhm, op made a choice to be gay for the rest of his life, and I support it through and through
@@Charles-7 Not a choice and op wasnt gay dumbass.
@@lwandilethabethe4611 So you think being gay is hurting others? Op's dad literally stopped him from doing what he wanted. That's different from raising someone a certain way.
There’s something called free will please accept that to the father in the first story💀
The second OP's wife needs to speak with someone about her post-partum. The obsessiveness she is showing isn't healthy for either her or their kid.
Story ones description reminded me of the dad from the original Matilda movie
BRUH I LEGIT HEARD THE THIRD STORY ON TIK TOK NOT THAT LONG AGO LMAO
That baby issue, mom needs to get the hell over it
Spoken like someone who will never understand what she's going through, BRIAN. How about doing some research and giving empathy a try.
@@jessieBird96 i do agree she needs to get over it. Via getting therapy to overcome the issue but getting over it none the less
@jessieBird96 The father should be able to spend time with the baby too.
@jessieBird96 Been there. Done that. The mother needs counseling. FAST. Stop trying keeping the father away from the baby.
@@jessieBird96I kinda understand what this person means actually. They said it in a much meaner way, but she does need to consider getting help for that. I completely understand how stressed she may be and how afraid she might be, especially if that’s her first baby, but she’s not taking care of herself. On top of that, she isn’t putting trust in her husband at all. I’m not gonna say that I know how PPD works because I don’t, but I think she definitely needs to get help, before she ends up hurting herself or the baby.
Should have suggested to name the kid Valentina 😂😂
I love the mischievous baby name story. Great story.
Almost at 1 million AITJ! We love you! AITJ is the BEST, most professional RUclips channel! 👍🥰❤
For the first one it just goes to show the best revenge is to brake the person that hurt you
Bro the guy didn’t mention anything abusive about that dad. It sounds like a big guy that probably got something form being a soldier. He just didn’t let the kid wear a dress. He taught the kid to beat up his bullies and got him martial arts lessons. That is it
New vid lets go
*Story 1:* What an insane father! I would think a parent can be authoritarian *without* being hateful and violent towards his children and family.
when you said, "6'4, western european man with curly, gray hair and piercing blue eyes," i just pictured James May.
I have a good story about my dad.
My dad, before having me, had two children with another woman. He first had a boy, which was supposed to be named, let's say, Jack. My dad wanted to name him, let's say, Carl. When she just gave birth, she was too tired to sign the papers and all that, so she tasked my father to do so. Guess what he did.
Hey... Carl
Hey, my name is Johnnyvalentino and tbh, my friends thinks its a cool and rare name but I do get a lot of questions and the reason I am named JohnnyValentino is because my dad loves the Moto GP and Rossi Valentino so my dad said Johnnyvalentino.
Story 2- Get in touch the wifes doctor and get her treatment for postpartum depression. A non postpartum depression mother would normally be over the moon to hand the baby over for a couple of hours to a trusted person, just to have a bath and a nap.
No not always.
Second story. The mother needs help. Get her help.
You can't change someone all you will do is piss them off
agreed, the moment when someone turned 18, they're free to do whatever they went in life, even if they went to be gay.
@Charles-7 It is not a choice.
When did you make the choice to be heterosexual ?
I knew that I liked males when I was 7.
I did not choose to like males, it just felt right to like males.
When I was a teenager, I always had male friends, I have never had any female friends.
When I was a teenager and preteen, I tried hard to like females, but it just never worked out that way for me.
I'm glad 2 had a good ending
Paul is a amazing friend
i hope the op's father learned that you can't force your world views onto their next of kin, and the moment the kid turns 18, they allowed to do whatever they want, in a legal manner that is, and being gay is completely harmless first and foremost.
Great clips is the only place I trust with my hair
Story 2 that husband is definitely the asshole, I'm a guy and even only from his explanation it is very very clear that his wife is suffering from PPD and needs to get help, his actions are actively making it worse so even if she was getting help there is a strong strong chance that his actions in this story would set her back to day one.
Not only that. HE DIDNT FEED A NEWBORN FOR SEVERAL HOURS. HE STARVED HER.
Story 1: I kind of understand why the dad wouldn't want his son to dress like a girl, knowing it could cause him to get bullied. But it's very clear this piece of trash father did not have his family's best interests in mind at all. The only thing he cared about is that the world and people around him all bend to his will and change into his perfect image. This man never really wanted children, he wanted little versions of himself who'd worship him and further stroke his ego.
Story 2: It was an incredibly dumb move on OPs part to willingly keep the mother away from her child. That being said, the mother was also being a jackass. If OP has not proven himself to be irresponsible or a danger to the baby, then there's no reason why he shouldn't be able to HOLD HIS OWN CHILD. I get that there's anxiety at first when you have a newborn baby but she was being ridiculous and unfair to OP, so it's not hard to imagine why he did what he did. The mother needs to talk to a therapist.
Story 3: Perfect revenge. I can't imagine the audacity to takes to deceive the mother of your child regarding something she was so passionate about, WHILE SHE'S HAVING SURGERY. The fact that Paul needs to keep paying child support and will now have a constant reminder of the terrible things he did puts a smile on my face. The only thing I hate about this story is that Paul hasn't been punished more. I hope his new wife finds out about his past and leaves with their baby. I admit it may seem harsh to the new wife and the baby, but they deserve better than Paul and reversely, Paul doesn't deserve to have a lover or a child.
Story 4: I'm sorry to hear that. I hope you're in a better state of mind now, OP! Given her (lack of a) reaction, I wonder if the mother even cares about her children at all. Every kid deserves a parent, but not every parent deserves a kid.
Wow... That guy seriously just went. Eh I can't be assed so I'll just make things even worse for her...
No wonder people hate people
The first story just makes me think that the dad was a closeted gay back in his day maybe bi. To be honest its funny
I guess yeah the first story really answer to your name of the channel with the answer "yes"
WOW that last one if I was that kid I would have said sorry I didn't succeed hoping the mom would feel bad like screw her
Almost at 1 mil!
Am I The Jerk for thinking my teacher has some type of bias against me? I need serious help and I'm not allowed to have reddit so please heart this if you'll consider using this. Every Thursday at 6 pm- 6:45 or 7 (something like that) I have a contemporary class its Wednesday so I have class tomorrow (not important) from when I'm out of contemporary I have a ballet class :) (not important) we have a "Trust fall" we call it a lift in the dance (its Texas what do you expect) where the smallest in the class steps on someone's back and falls back into the rest of the classes arms. I am by no means a "tall" or "chubby" person, yet I am the one being stepped on, one of my friends and a few other people are taller than the teacher. Mind you I'm pretty sure I'm the darkest one in the class and everyone else is a tan or pale skin tone not a small tan close to my skin color but still a noticeable difference because they are still lighter. Maybe there's bias bc of skin maybe it's because I'm quiet I don't really know but I feel like there's some bias here. I brought it up to my mom and she was shocked to say the least and she said she would tell the teacher and I told her not to bc I don't want the teacher to feel some type of way or to ruin the dance and recital is on Sunday June 19th again ITS WEDNESDAY or I guess I should say Thursday cause now Its 12:26 am sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo yeah but still and my mom said she might tell but before she does she will talk to me about it and it has always made me uncomfortable but I never brought it up and before you go on your "iTs BeCaUsE aLl WhItE tEaChErS aRe RaCiSt" tirade I really doubt my teacher is white because she has the same kind of complection as my darker classmates and I think she's hispanic and I may not be right but still what should I do and the most important question ; Am I The Jerk for thinking my teacher has some type of bias against me?
9:26 it's called postpartum anxiety and it's not over the top and that's why she is scared to leave the baby alone do your damn research first
E i think im first
Nice to the first story that was hilarious
Second story, why, I’ve never heard of postpartnam depression but if it causes this than that must’ve been hard a little confused of what to think
Third story, beautiful unfolding
The second one with the baby. Yeah not a doctor but there are some post wadda-call-its depression going on and I feel other mental problems going on as well. The wife needs some therapy.
So on the new born one he doesn’t specifically say that his wife has postpartum depression every women is postpartum after giving birth so personally after having kids myself I think the wife took this a little to far it is very important for both parents to bond with baby in the first year and that means the whole year
Never been this early damn
lol perfect revange
in first story the dad isnt wrong he is making sure his son doesn't wear girl clothes and become a man and is that really bad thing
idk why, but people talking about "maintaining their Legacy *etc*", always reminds of Clovis Bray (fellow Guardians will understand), but he was more of a narcissist with a god complex lmao
For Story #1: Is the original Poster’s name Sue? Lol.
The last story makes me mad cause my brother tried to take his life a while ago and has depression
The last one... I live with depression and anxiety to but I gets good help for it. So I am feeling good now. You deserve that to. Get help from a professional. For your sake!
So wait, his dad is a traveling Seaman salesman?
Am I the jerk for yelling at my mom on how I feel that my little brother is the favorite brother. So a very long time ago like whe I was 13 and my like brother was 9. Most of the time I get yelled at for almost nothing all the time while my brother gets the easy way out. Like he brakes something and she tells my brother accidents happen. Me on the other well you get the picture. Even when I actually finish homework before bed she would yell at me saying I have a bad grade and I "had" to retake it. Even though I've had high grades. Which really annoys me and leads me into stress. And this still happens today because I am a freshman in High School. If you are in High School then you would know how stressful it is. Its bot just that either. Mu Mom forces me to do Coding, Swimming, and Cello lessons. But I do like Cello lessons. She just says "So you can get a degree so we dont have to pay a lot of money for college." Which is true but what is the point of doing so if you dont like what your doing. Shes liking trying to make life her way and no one else's. And if you dont lime them then you basically have no reason to be in collage if you dont know what your doing. Anyways I have had enough so I brought it up. At this time I was in her school office and I was sitting in a chair. Yes she is a teacher aid for the Music Department. I told her " Look, I'm done trying to pretend I dont care if you force me to do stuff that I dont even like." She says " Oh shut up. I'm doing g for what's best for you. You will thank me later." " No I won't! I'm doing acceleration in almost all of my classes, Doing lessons that I dont even like, and giving my brother almost no discipline for anything on what he has done." She said " The first accusation doesn't make sense. Two I'm doing for what's best of you and Three You do a lot more bad stuff unlike Jacob. Are you trying to make an argument for no reason. After just bringing it up?!?!" I retaliate by saying " What about Jacob always getting what he wants like you said no more Mario plushies Mason and Jacob but he got even more Mario plushies a day later while I got nothing." She says " Now that dosen't even prove a point. " This is the part where my Orchestra teacher comes in. I say " Mon what do you mean that explains nothing. It clearly states that Jacob is the favorite child. Plus do you not realize how much stuff you put me through?" " Tou think you have been a lot? My stepmom had me fist almost everything and if I didnt do it eight I had to restart." So basically she is admiting to making my life harder because of her life. % I'm just making your life better." I say. " Make my life better my butt." " That's it get out of my office." She says so I did. Even later she said that I embarrassed he in front of her boss and that I should apologize. I did only because I would be ground if I didnt and even talked to my brother about it. He even says that him bieng the favorite and I get stressed. So when I looked back at this story I start to think that I was the jerk. So am I the jerk for yelling at my mom for my brother being the favorite child and what should I do?
For the last story, makes me wonder what would happen if OP did end up succeeding in ending it. Would the family care?
mhm, mother of the year she is
Good guy
Game name: horizon chase
If you say poops in the chat, I will screenshot your icon
I've said this before, and I'll say it again: I can't stand people who act so entitled that they need to control another person's life, especially when they're family members.
New vid yasss
what is the name of the game in the background gameplay
Story 1. I’d be worried about he was going to take out his frustrations on the rest of the family that wasn’t able to just leave. Story 2. Ok, sooo many red flags. The effects of post-partum depression can last up to a full year and beyond. I agree that she needs some kind of therapy or counseling, and definitely needs to take into account the father’s needs as well. If she doesn’t address this constant need to be in control of her newborn’s every moment, she’s going to turn into one of those helicopter moms that we all love to hate.
Story 3. I have so many feelings. Ok, for starters I srsly detest this type of misogynistic attitude about women and childbirth. Every time I hear it, I want to throw all of the death in childbirth statistics that still exist, even in today’s works of modern medicine. And not being in the room with her? Just…grrrr but yay for her being sound enough mind to see the red flags for what they were and got the hell out of that relationship ASAP. Story 4. Parents like this are the reason we have so many non-adult un-aliving these days.
HAPPY PRIDE MONTH🏳️🌈
If anyone is wondering the game is called horizon chase turbo
Now the fourth story is what
my father is the oppisite of op's father, he doesn't care about weither or not you came out as a member of the lgbtq.
but I hope that op's father could be like some other parents are but i love how op pretends that he's gay to get revenge on his father.
This dude is fricken epic🤩
Used to be ashamed but after hearing this I'm not anymore because when I was little when there was nobody looking I like to sleep in girls leotard because it felt good and no I am not gay the time I was a man I got over that Sage in my life
Nice!
agreed fully I definitely watched the entire video in the first 14 seconds of this vid being posted 👍
story 1. Best way to get back at a homophobic parent EVER!
I think story 3 is from Asia.
4:31 story one I say funny n good
at the age of 8 was picked up by child protective services at school and went to my other grandmother's house my cps worker (we will call ms.evil) was paid and lied to the judge and she didn't listen to me and my siblings we were adopted by our grandma but we could have had time because my youngest sister was not born yet but put with our grandma (we will call abuser) who would abuse us mentally and physically she would tell us to sleep outside and she had me and my brother scared she would often pull his hair and hit us and call us rude names and she spoke Spanish but this went on for 3 or 4 years until I told my counselor and stayed with my nice grandma for 2 days and my abuser came to get me and my bro but couldn't until I was picked bye CPS and was put in a shelter for 3 Months and now I'm with my nice grandma and happy but my but while me andy siblings suffered ms.evil live in Italy and lived happily but my siblings I live with my bro but we have small contact with my sis and my youngest brother we don't have contact my baby sister comes to visit once in a while but I'm now 12 years old I live happy knowing I'm safe
i'm sorry that you went though that torment and your siblings too
Story #2 let the guy have a little bit of time with his own daughter. Seriously you need to see somebody about your issues that child belongs to both of you so you both should have equal amount of time with the baby and seriously call your mom you really need to go see somebody
Story 2... op needs to get a paternity test done... kid might not be his which could be why the wife is acting off...
What game is that?
The guy that pranked his dad, that was kind of messed up. Your father did his part in raising you and doing his best. The fact that you take pride in breaking your father it makes you worse than a jerk. You got pleasure out of hurting your dad that you yourself admits had a lot to do in who you are now. Instead of being grateful you decide to destroy him. A parent that is 100% right doesn't exist and maybe your dad was afraid of you playing for the other team, guess what most Dads are afraid of that as well. I've never met a father that was straight hope that their son would be gay. To be honest you should apologize to your dad for such an evil prank.
Uh, no? I’ve been gay for 3 years, Dad happily accepted me. He wasn’t hoping for me not to be gay, he was hoping I’d be happy with the partner I chose.
I get parents fuck up, but at that point, he has to accept his son is who he wanted him to be.
Sounds like the father was infact gay. Story 2 seems like postpartum mental health issues
is there a way to submit a story without using reddit? I'm kind of a Neanderthal when it comes to technology, I can do basic stuff on my phone and game consoles but not much else and I think my wife's life story about how her entire family has treated her since the day she was born would be a good am I the jerk story because she has absolutely no feeling for any of them other than seething hatred and wants absolutely nothing to do with any of them at all 🤔
Story 4 -- I disagree wiþ her being a horrible moþer. She's a horrible person.
Story 1 the MC was the jerk, he was his dad
W father
you're probably like 10 lol
I was also a girly boy and I got bullied a lot
Ok for the first one a girl can be masculine a boy can be like a girl there is no shame in it it’s who you r no one should be ashamed of it you can be who U want to be not wut others expect you to be
