Hi All,

NC in case outing.

In my opinion it was completely reasonable. Everyone I know thought so apart from a few people who didn't but they are mistaken for various reasons I can't get into at the moment (outing). One of these people was person A who is the SIL of my BIL's friend person B (legitimate breeder, no puppy farms), and it wasn't the first time that this had happened to person C, unrelated. Maybe I should just LTB.

I felt that the exclusion was about a personality clash and the teacher has got it in for DS. He is a sweet boy despite being boistrous and a bit of a livewire (NT, but diagnoses welcome). But to be clear they have been parking there every single day at drop off. Engines running. And it's not ever their hedge.

If you think IABU I can add in a few more posts later about my MIL, finances, and a diagram done with a biro that nearly doesn't work.

For clarity we earn £100,000 each and can afford it.

AIBU?
(Only YANBU answers please)

You didn’t cover yourself in glory there, did you op?
Oh dear.
I’m sure everyone will start to forget in a year or so. How embarrassing.

OP YABU.
I am, like, literally shaking.

No sobbing?

Iloveliberty · 17/03/2021 22:22

No is a complete sentence 😝

Gemma2019 · 17/03/2021 23:07

OP I have been on here for years but name changed just to reply to your post (Mexican house thief, elderly Korean lady, penis beaker, cutted up pear, artisan scotch eggs, naice ham, supersoaker, Sistine screamer, lemon drizzle cake, centerparcs bumsex, sex in hedge, snapped and farted, Balonz, baby Blanche, penguin bollards, woman replying to her own stroller recommendation request years later, te noihdyc, Brian and yoni massage, pombears).

Ah shit, now I've forgotten what I wanted to say.

WordOfTheDay · 17/03/2021 23:14

Gosh OP, this just confirms in my mind that I made the right choice by staying childfree.

If everyone stops feeding the troll it will go away it must be the school holidays again

Oh also RTFT - hahaha.

greenflamingo · 17/03/2021 23:23

Has OP abandoned the thread? Typical. This always happens.... desperate to know what happened.

Dailyhandtowelwash · 17/03/2021 23:25

Reported. I think we all know what’s going on here.

Imagine if a man had posted this.

LoveIsAllThereIs · 17/03/2021 23:29

This needs to be moved to pedant's corner. You need to be more careful what you write, OP. Don't you care that lots of people have issues and this sort of inconsiderate post is a trigger? It's just crewel.

Not to mention the shockingly bad grammer and punktuation in this thread (insighted by you, obvs) have brought on an attack so thanks to you I'm currently sat in A&E waiting for a psycho assessment.

And if anyone mentions victim-blaming I will ghost you forthwith. Now. Probably. Or I might not, depending on my mental state, which you are entirely responsible for, obvs.

And @Gemma2019 you forgot the ghost, whatever his name was, the one that child kept seeing... I forget, but I do remember him. Anyone else remember the ghost?

God, what am I doing here. I need to find a hobby, like maybe embroidery, possibly crewel, even. Grin

SilverBirchWithout · 18/03/2021 02:12

The op has gone, hasn’t she?

Typical! Post something, doesn’t get the answers they want then disappears. Why even ask the question?

HeronLanyon · 18/03/2021 08:27

Peeps please read the updates before posting. We’ve moved on from the mil issue (resolved) and the diagram (provided and now also colour coded). There are far more urgent problems disclosed in op’s careful and helpful updates.

Pugdogmom · 18/03/2021 08:40

And you really shouldn't have a dog. They are smelly and savage small children. Plus they have germs.
Oh and LTB

TheOrchidKiller · 18/03/2021 12:08

(Sigh) It might be the school holidays where you are, but it is not the school holidays where others live.

We don't all live in the same area. Why can posters not understand that there are other places in the world where people live, other than their own little worlds!

Very self-centred.

I'm really offended by this. I'm leaving and hiding the thread.
