Family
AITA for calling my Father-in-Law a creepy pervert?
Dear Confessions, The situation with my FIL is weird. I have a seven-month-old and I have been breast feeding since she was born, well as we have started weaning her, I am trying some of the breast milk recipes. I put a picture in our family group chat of her with a breastmilk ice lolly and my father-in-law immediately commented saying “I want one of those” with the heart-eyes emoji. I replied back saying “WTH they’re breast milk!”. He apologised and said he didn’t read the caption on the photo.

AITA for refusing to pay my daughter's bills because she is a stripper?
Dear Confessions, My daughter is in university and we agreed prior to her attending that I would cover some of her expenses whilst she studied. I was recently informed by a colleague that she is now stripping at a club forty minutes from where I live. I am disgusted and disappointed by this.

AITA for thinking my husband is sexualising my thirteen year old daughter?. Content Warning.
Dear Confessions, I was sexually abused by my father up until the age of fifteen, when he got me pregnant and I was finally removed from the house and went to live with my aunt and uncle. Since giving birth to our daughter (now 13 years old) I have been very hands on. I refused to let my husband do nappy changes and bath times. I understand that this is my trauma and sought therapy 9 years ago to help me deal with some of my issues.

AITA for refusing to give my seat to a heavily pregnant woman?
Dear Confessions, I was attending my nephews graduation and made sure I arrived extremely early so I could get a seat at the front. I arrived 40 minutes earlier than the suggested time and just camped out with my headphones in.

AITA for telling my son that he is obviously gay?
Dear confessions, My son 17 year old son is a very masculine boy and he seems to have been in the closet for a long time. Well over the past seven months he has had a new male friend and they have become very close. They sit close together on the sofa, to the point they are almost touching, they spend lots of time together in his bedroom with the door closed and my son has suddenly begun putting a lot of effort into his appearance. He does his hair, dresses nice and smells lovely.

The Books on a Shelf
My parents were not into home decorating. One time they went out to buy a piece of art to cover a bare bit of wall over a sofa. They went to the store and fought in front of the framed pictures for three hours. They came home with a water lily painting by Monet because that was the only thing they could agree on. This story kills me because I can't think of anything less style-neutral than a water lily painting by Monet. In any case, we owned four humongous bookcases which covered most of the rest of the available wall space.

The Price You Pay
Introduction The image is from my Pixabay page here: It is often thought that there is always a price to pay, especially for the things that make us happy. The song I have chosen is Bruce Springsteen's song of the same title from the album"The River" which is darker than this article will be although it will touch on difficult things.
