AITA for not wanting to "adjust" to my(28F) boyfriend's(26M) parents living with us for months at a time?
My boyfriend and I have been living together for three years in Australia. A few months ago, his parents arrived from India to live with us. Although I was excited to make them feel comfortable, their demands soon made me feel uneasy in my own home. They were uncomfortable with us sleeping in the same room, resulting in my boyfriend sleeping in the living room for two months. The mother took over the kitchen and excluded me from grocery shopping, and they did not acknowledge me as his girlfriend in front of friends or help with cleaning. They also rearranged furniture against our requests, and his father expressed concern that I was not helping in the kitchen, which was untrue. Furthermore, they credited my boyfriend for things he did not do and criticized my clothing, claiming it violated their family values. My primary issue is that my boyfriend did not acknowledge these problems or stand up for me. He dismissed my concerns, saying his parents were guests and his father was simply traditional. After they left, I moved to another city for a job, and our long-distance relationship has been great. However, he recently informed me that his parents are visiting again for two months, having booked the tickets without consulting me. He expects me to accept frequent, long visits as a condition of moving back in together. I feel my privacy and personal space are being disregarded, and I want him to consider my needs and set boundaries.
AITA for staying anonymous after reporting my sister and her husband to CPS?
My sister met her husband when she was pregnant with another man's child. She never told anyone in the family who the father is, and she never told the father about the child either. Her husband refused to include my nephew in the wedding or treat him as his own. Since they had their own children, his bad treatment of my nephew has become worse. He refuses to watch my nephew, threatens to let him starve, and says he would not stop him from getting hurt. My sister ignores this and defends her husband. I reported this to Child Protective Services anonymously. They investigated but did not remove my nephew because there were no physical injuries. My sister is angry about the report and wants to find out who made it. Some of my family think it is cowardly to stay anonymous, but I worry that if my sister finds out it was me, I will never see my nephew again.
AITA for leaving Thanksgiving because my partner's creepy brother was there?
I and my partner have been friends for a few years and started dating more seriously early this year. This was the first time he invited me to Thanksgiving, which he called a Friendsgiving. His parents were hosting it, but it was mostly their friends and his friends, not extended family. For whatever reason, I assumed his brother would not be there. I have tried really hard to be nice to his brother, who has always made me uncomfortable with staring and hovering. Last year, my partner asked if his brother could join us on a road trip. I expressed my discomfort, but my partner assured me it would be fine. During the trip, I felt like I was babysitting him. A few weeks later, I discovered that his brother had posted lewd drawings of me online, which he had created during our trip. When I brought this up to my partner, he brushed it off, and I did not explicitly spell out how uncomfortable it made me. I made it clear that I did not want to be around his brother after that. When I had dinner with his parents, his brother usually stayed in his room. However, at the Friendsgiving dinner, his brother showed up and was seated right next to me. My partner did not warn me or try to prevent us from being seated together. Feeling overwhelmed, I decided to leave. I took the car keys, and when my partner asked what I was doing, I raised my voice in front of the guests, telling him he could choose between me and his brother. I drove away, leaving him at his parents' house, and went to stay with my sister.
