Inspired by so many posts here lately where the replies are utterly batshit and wildly presumptive, give the poster above your terrible advice!

Extra bonus points if you can turn their question / AIBU into a personal attack, whilst deriving totally speculative presumptions from the little they’ve wrote.

I’ll go first.

My next door neighbour would like to plant some flowers along our boundary line, AIBU to let him plant the flowers? Husband says he prefers the neat lawn without flowers along the edging

Really? You're 'asking for advice', OP?
This is because of people like you that this country is up the proverbial creek. You sound like my exactly like my neighbour btw, and I'm taking him to court for trying to kill my bamboo, so good luck to you OP!

Peashoots · 20/10/2022 10:59

Have you considered that some people in your street may have hayfever and may be made life threateningly ill if you plant these flowers? Are you always so inconsiderate and selfish, op?
Also, your husband sounds controlling, massive red flags OP. Get your ducks in a row and LTB.

Your husband likes neat edges? You should probably get him tested for Autism.

I’ll have some advice…
my daughter has been in a friendship group with four girls. Recently they’ve been leaving her out, and last weekend all had a sleepover without her. They posted lots on Instagram so definitely didn’t try and hide it. No arguments or callings out afaik. The girls are 12. My daughters obviously really upset, how do I handle this?

Bunnyfuller · 20/10/2022 11:06

Is your husband always so controlling, op?

You don’t have a neighbour problem, you have a DH problem.

LTB

@Peashoots

It's clearly the fault of the Tories, so tell her that.

REP22 · 20/10/2022 11:08

Do you get a bonus point if you achieve one of these:

"Message deleted by MNHQ. Here's a link to our Talk Guidelines."

Your neighbour is clearly trying to install cameras to spy on you, hidden in the flowers. Dial 999 immediately and get the old pervert hauled away.

Princessglittery · 20/10/2022 11:09

@Peashoots Throw an amazing sleepover, invite all the girls in the class except the four who excluded DD. Post loads of photos on social media.

ok but I have another dilemma

My daughter is 13 and wants to attend a sleep over with her best friend (also 13) they will be with friends parents, however they will be left alone for 15 minutes during the evening, that’s totally ok isn’t it? They are both sensible, will lock the doors when the parents are out and both have mobile phones

12 you say?

I've done an advanced search and 2 months ago you said she was 11.

So CLEARLY you're a troll

Have you tried adding a Mumsnet chicken? But never pulses beans or lentils as those are offensive to people who can’t afford chickens. Check your privilege, op

MrsLargeEmbodied · 20/10/2022 11:13

a chicken
how dare you
at the very least i would have thought tofu

Why have you given your 12 year old Instagram?! To be honest it’s no wonder she has no friends with such a neglectful mother. If I were you I’d apologise profusely to your daughter, beg for her forgiveness in your failings and give yourself 100 lashes outside in the garden under a full moon.

Make an appointment to see a urologist as soon as possible.

Have you posted about this before? I'm sure it sounds familiar. Isn't your DD actually a boy who is transitioning?

@TerfQueen I know there have been 4 threads like this within the last 2 months (clearly I have no life and am always on mumsnet) this sounds very much like a troll hmmm

IncessantNameChanger · 20/10/2022 11:18

It's your fault for voting tory.

I can't belive what riles people up. OP do you maybe have a very sad, lonely oppressed life. I mean this kindly but I think you husband is a psychopath and have multiple affairs. Also you are suffering from.ptsd and depression. Also you are babying you child and that's really not normal or healthy. By 6 most of childs peer groups had a job and family of their own.

........

My problem.

There is a massive house in front of mine on a huge plot. The house has shared access over my drive. Once the house gets knocked down their is no access as no house. Would ibu to tell the developer after he knocks the house down to gain all entry to the site from the road

TerfQueen · 20/10/2022 11:18

No, call 111 because they can get you in quicker, they have those powers 100% they’ll bypass every other pleb sat in the waiting room so you can go straight in
