AITJ for teaching my son how to do his own laundry and basic cooking and now his mom says Im undermining her
Ive been a single dad for about four years. My son is 11. He splits time between me and his mom. When hes at my place its just me and him and weve got a good routine going. A few months ago I started teaching him basic life skills. Nothing extreme. How to sort laundry and run a load. How to make a few simple meals. Scrambled eggs grilled cheese pasta. How to clean a bathroom properly. How to use a budget sheet I made him for his allowance. Stuff I wish someone had taught me when I was his age instead of me figuring it out at 25 when I was suddenly living alone after the divorce. I didnt make it some big formal thing. Just worked it into our weekends naturally. Hed help me with dinner and Id walk him through it. Laundry day hed sort his stuff and push the buttons. He actually seemed to enjoy it. Started asking to cook specific things. Was proud when he made his first full meal by himself. Last week he was at his moms house and she asked him to put his clothes in the hamper. He told her he could just wash them himself and started sorting lights and darks on her laundry room floor. Then at dinner he offered to help cook instead of just sitting at the table waiting. She called me that night. Said I was undermining her. That by teaching him all this stuff Im sending the message that she doesnt do enough for him. That hes a child and shouldnt be doing adult tasks. That its weird and inappropriate for an 11 year old boy to be doing his own laundry and cooking meals. I was stunned. I told her Im not undermining anyone Im just teaching our son how to take care of himself. These are basic skills every person needs eventually and I dont think theres a minimum age for knowing how to scramble an egg. She said I was trying to make her look bad. That when he goes back to her house acting all independent it makes her feel like hes being raised to not need her. I keep going over it in my head and I genuinely dont see how teaching a kid to be self sufficient is a bad thing. Hes not doing hard labor. Hes learning how to feed himself and wash his own clothes. He seems happier and more confident. He tells me hes proud of himself when he cooks something new. But now I feel guilty every time I show him something because I keep hearing her voice saying Im undermining her. Am I making a mistake here.

Help me choose! Which laundry hamper is better for a messy bedroom?
My bedroom is currently a total mess because I don't have a proper place for dirty clothes. They just end up in piles on my sofa and chairs, which is driving me crazy. A friend recommended a GARVEE laundry hamper to me, and after checking it out, I really like the design and the price seems pretty reasonable. But I’m stuck between two models and can't decide: The one with the hanging rack (Pic 2): This looks super useful for hanging up "in-between" clothes (stuff worn once but not dirty) or shirts that I don't want to get wrinkled. But I’m worried that having a bunch of random clothes hanging out in the open will make the bedroom look cluttered and chaotic. The version without the rack (Pic 3): This one looks much sleeker and cleaner, but then I’m back to square one. I’ll have nowhere to put those clothes that shouldn't be folded or thrown in the hamper yet. For those of you with a similar setup in your bedroom, which one is more worth it? Does the rack actually help with organization, or does it just become an eyesore? submitted by /u/One-Maybe-1894 to r/organizing [link] [comments]

AITAH for telling my former best friend that I stood by my decision and that there was nothing to discuss?
I (25) was best friends with Blake (also 25) for my entire life. The sun, moon, and stars revolved around this kid for me and he felt the same way. We were Snoopy and Woodstock, a dynamic duo, he meant everything to me and he was my biggest supporter and a brother to me. This is someone who I cared for almost more than myself. When we were 6, Blake’s dad died and his mom really quickly married Gary. From the first time my family met him, something was off. I have a clear memory of being 7 years old and telling my mom to make it so that Blake only came over to our house and we only did sleepovers here, never at theirs. That continued for a few years until we were 13 and in middle school and Blake became this crazy good at hockey, physically imposing, talented popular guy and I was with the Lord of the Rings crew and Mystery, Inc. gang. We were still friends, it was just different. When we were 16 and not even half as close as we used to be. Blake turns up in the middle of the night and tells me he needs to tell me something terrible. We could both drive by then so I let him in through my bedroom window assuming he’d just committed a hit and run. Instead, he gets so upset that he vomits into my laundry hamper and starts crying so hard and so loudly that I have to put a towel beneath my door to dampen the sound. He starts talking about how he’s never had a relationship or kissed a girl before and I’m like “okay, well, we’re 16 so there’s plenty of time for that” and then he says verbatim “no, there’s no time left for me since Gary’s been hurting me for 8 years”. Blake tells me everything over a few hours, we passed out, and he woke up before me and left before the sun rose. I clearly remember this because I remember watching the sun rise, feeling sick to my stomach, hearing my mom leave for her morning workout class, and then walking downstairs to where my dad was watching the TV and posing a hypothetical to him. I said “what if I told you that someone came to me and told me something really serious?”, basically telling him the whole story the way Blake had told me but never once saying his name, and then telling him that I was going on a long walk to clear my head. By the time I got back, the cops were already in our driveway (my dad thought Blake was going to commit and had come to confess to me before he did. He wasn’t). Blake didn’t speak to me again after that night. It really hurt for a long time but they also found like a TB of CP on Gary’s devices and Blake has like 3 younger brothers so I guess I don’t really feel bad. I lost a lifelong friend but we went to the same college and I’ve watched him get better and thrive from afar, I saw some of the trial in MLive or whatever and Gary forsure got sentenced, and I also didn’t expect my dad to tell? Something foolish inside of me told me that he wouldn’t but I do understand why he did now that we’re almost 10 years out from the situation and he also really hated Gary so that it’s understandable. Fast forward to current times, Blake and I are both c/o 2026 and about to graduate school with advanced degrees and he approaches me. Mind you, we’ve had at least one class together every semester for the past 9 years and he’s acted like I’m dead. We sit down over a cup of coffee and he basically tells me that his therapist urged him to confront me in a calm manner. I’m like “okay dude” and rolling my eyes because I stand by telling my dad but he keeps fucking talking to me and saying stuff he should’ve said 7 years ago when I still actively cared about the situation. Apparently I forced him into the trauma of a trial and he’s resented me since, he feels like I’ve remained on the outskirts of his life while never once reaching out to make amends for blowing his life up, he feels like I seriously set him back, and he has a disdain for me because I went on living my life like I didn’t ruin his. I’m sitting there literally almost unable to believe what I’m hearing and thinking to myself “there’s no way this guy’s therapist told him to confront me…maybe he meant write a letter?” but there we were. I’m not going to have someone spew vitriol in my face since I grew a backbone sometime during the nine years this guy didn’t speak a single word to me and so I say “sounds like you have a Gary problem” and continue with “trust me Blake, I have nothing but love for you but I stand by the choices I made. So what I told my dad? You put me in an impossible situation”. It becomes quite a loud argument and I say “I stand by my decision and don’t think there’s shit left to discuss. I suggest you take your grievances up with the people that caused them because it seems like you’ve misplaced your anger and misunderstood my intent in ratting”. The reason I’m here is because Blake decided to make a post on his “advocacy page” basically talking about an unsuccessful confrontation with a controversial figure in his past and the comments are tearing me UP. Apparently I’m an asshole for not giving him a chance to speak his truth, I fucked up by further victimizing him, he should have insisted that I hear him out, and I should have apologized for the role I played in his trauma. In my mind, the trauma was caused the the court of law and Gary and if he didn’t want me to be in a position where I could rat to anyone, he should have thought twice before he came through my window. I comment on the post because I get tagged (mistake on my part) and say “I suggest you put this in a letter, send it to Ionia Correctional Facility, and leave me alone. You put me in an impossible position and seem to be lashing out because I’ve moved on from that period of my life. Take care and please don’t reach out again “. The comments are split, the reactions of everyone but my dad are split, and even my roommate and best friend is saying that I should’ve been kinder to him. In my mind, there’s an easily identifiable villain and it’s not me. AITAH? submitted by /u/ActiveeDamagee to r/AITAH [link] [comments]

In love with my new laundry hamper
Labelled in a childlike way as my husband is definitely going to struggle knowing which colours are considered light or dark (sigh). I have a toddler and another baby on the way, so hoping this makes life easier. I will be instilling the rule of not in the hamper = not getting washed as I'm fed up of picking up after a grown man.

Met bilbo in a safeway parking lot. Now he's obsessed with doing yoga in my laundry hamper.
He's a liquid most of the time and loves belly rubs! I Went to safeway for groceries and saw someone in the parking lot holding him saying he needed a home. As soon as I picked him up he was purring and cuddling into my beard. So... I went home with a new cat. Im not mad about it. He's a charming little hobbit. submitted by /u/SnooCalculations1913 to r/CatDistributionSystem [link] [comments]

I said “what if I told you that someone came to me and told me something really serious?”, basically telling him the whole story the way Blake had told me but never once saying his name, and then telling him that I was going on a long walk to clear my head. By the time I got back, the cops were already in our driveway (my dad thought Blake was going to commit and had come to confess to me before he did. He wasn’t). Blake didn’t speak to me again after that night. It really hurt for a long time but they also found like a TB of CP on Gary’s devices and Blake has like 3 younger brothers so I guess I don’t really feel bad. I lost a lifelong friend but we went to the same college and I’ve watched him get better and thrive from afar, I saw some of the trial in MLive or whatever and Gary forsure got sentenced, and I also didn’t expect my dad to tell? Something foolish inside of me told me that he wouldn’t but I do understand why he did now that we’re almost 10 years out from the situation and he also really hated Gary so that it’s understandable. Fast forward to current times, Blake and I are both c/o 2026 and about to graduate school with advanced degrees and he approaches me. Mind you, we’ve had at least one class together every semester for the past 9 years and he’s acted like I’m dead. We sit down over a cup of coffee and he basically tells me that his therapist urged him to confront me in a calm manner. I’m like “okay dude” and rolling my eyes because I stand by telling my dad but he keeps fucking talking to me and saying stuff he should’ve said 7 years ago when I still actively cared about the situation. Apparently I forced him into the trauma of a trial and he’s resented me since, he feels like I’ve remained on the outskirts of his life while never once reaching out to make amends for blowing his life up, he feels like I seriously set him back, and he has a disdain for me because I went on living my life like I didn’t ruin his. I’m sitting there literally almost unable to believe what I’m hearing and thinking to myself “there’s no way this guy’s therapist told him to confront me…maybe he meant write a letter?” but there we were. I’m not going to have someone spew vitriol in my face since I grew a backbone sometime during the nine years this guy didn’t speak a single word to me and so I say “sounds like you have a Gary problem” and continue with “trust me Blake, I have nothing but love for you but I stand by the choices I made. So what I told my dad? You put me in an impossible situation”. It becomes quite a loud argument and I say “I stand by my decision and don’t think there’s shit left to discuss. I suggest you take your grievances up with the people that caused them because it seems like you’ve misplaced your anger and misunderstood my intent in ratting”. The reason I’m here is because Blake decided to make a post on his “advocacy page” basically talking about an unsuccessful confrontation with a controversial figure in his past and the comments are tearing me UP. Apparently I’m an asshole for not giving him a chance to speak his truth, I fucked up by further victimizing him, he should have insisted that I hear him out, and I should have apologized for the role I played in his trauma. In my mind, the trauma was caused the the court of law and Gary and if he didn’t want me to be in a position where I could rat to anyone, he should have thought twice before he came through my window. I comment on the post because I get tagged (mistake on my part) and say “I suggest you put this in a letter, send it to Ionia Correctional Facility, and leave me alone. You put me in an impossible position and seem to be lashing out because I’ve moved on from that period of my life. Take care and please don’t reach out again “. The comments are split, the reactions of everyone but my dad are split, and even my roommate and best friend is saying that I should’ve been kinder to him. In my mind, there’s an easily identifiable villain and it’s not me. AITAH? submitted by /u/ActiveeDamagee to r/AITAH [link] [comments]

In love with my new laundry hamper
Labelled in a childlike way as my husband is definitely going to struggle knowing which colours are considered light or dark (sigh). I have a toddler and another baby on the way, so hoping this makes life easier. I will be instilling the rule of not in the hamper = not getting washed as I'm fed up of picking up after a grown man. (This is the only thing he's a man-child at, I'm very lucky). submitted by /u/StepAwayFromTheTea to r/laundry [link] [comments]

Met bilbo in a safeway parking lot. Now he's obsessed with doing yoga in my laundry hamper.
He's a liquid most of the time and loves belly rubs! I Went to safeway for groceries and saw someone in the parking lot holding him saying he needed a home. As soon as I picked him up he was purring and cuddling into my beard. So... I went home with a new cat. Im not mad about it. He's a charming little hobbit. submitted by /u/SnooCalculations1913 to r/CatDistributionSystem [link] [comments]

Why Your Bedroom Needs a Dedicated Laundry Hamper (and How It Actually Improves the Space)
A laundry hamper sounds like the most boring item in the bedroom, but it quietly solves more problems than people realize. I’ve been inside countless homes over the years, and one thing I’ve learned is that clutter usually starts with the clothes you don’t know what to do with in the moment. A proper hamper fixes that instantly. The first advantage is visual calm. Dirty clothes scattered across a chair or the floor make a bedroom feel messy even if everything else is clean. A hamper creates a single landing spot so your space stays neat with almost no effort. It’s a small habit shift that makes the whole room feel more put together. There’s also a hygiene aspect people forget. Keeping worn clothes off the floor reduces dust, odors, and the general mustiness that builds up in closed spaces. A breathable hamper, especially one made of natural materials like cotton or bamboo, prevents moisture from getting trapped. What surprises most people is how much the style of the hamper matters. A nice woven basket or a fabric bin with a clean design can blend seamlessly into your bedroom and even add texture. If your bedroom leans modern, go for canvas or sleek metal. If you prefer a warm, cozy feel, a wicker or seagrass style works beautifully. If you feel like your bedroom gets messy faster than you can clean it, try upgrading your hamper first. It’s one of those small changes that makes daily life smoother without you even noticing. submitted by /u/Walsh_Tracy to r/BedroomBuild [link] [comments]

I (46F) stopped doing my husband's (46M) laundry
My husband and I have been together for 25+ years. We have a son (12M). In an argument about household chores (very original, I know), he said: You don't do laundry, our washing machine does laundry. So I stopped doing his laundry and continued to do my son's and my laundry. After 2 weeks he began to notice. I told him to ask the washing machine when he mentioned an item of clothing hadn't returned from the hamper. He says I'm an AH for not telling him I wouldn't do his laundry anymore, I replied that according to him, I never did his laundry so I didn't have to tell him. We used to divide the ironing but since he refused to iron my clothes as they are too delicate and difficult to iron, we now each do our own ironing. Did I go to far by not doing his laundry for two weeks? submitted by /u/Ev3li3n to r/laundry [link] [comments]

My wife was left alone for 3 weeks and I wish she’d just cheated instead. Am I Under Reacting?
My wife was left alone for 3 weeks and I wish she’d just cheated instead. Three weeks ago, I left for a work trip to Germany. My wife didn’t want to come. “I’ll hang back, water the plants, binge some Netflix,” she said. She’s 39. I thought, “Okay, she’s a grown adult. She’ll be fine.” She was not fine. Day 2, she tries to make sourdough from scratch using a YouTube video and what she thought was yeast but turned out to be Epsom salt. The result: a rock-hard bread grenade that cracked our marble counter. She named it “Crumbzilla” and displayed it like a trophy. Then, she decided to go “all raw vegan” for some reason and ordered 19 pounds of produce from a sketchy organic site. Half of it arrived moldy. The other half, she juiced. Exclusively. For a week. Just juice. No solids. She got so dizzy she mistook the laundry hamper for the fridge and put all our frozen meals in it. They’ve since liquefied. To survive, she pivoted to eating Pop-Tarts and spoonfuls of peanut butter. Her justification: “Balance.” Meanwhile, she stopped wearing actual clothes. Just bathrobes. The same one, every day. By week two it was 70% robe, 30% soup stains. The dog refused to cuddle her. Last night, I land, exhausted, and I’m greeted by a living room that smells like fermented ginger and regret. She runs to hug me—robe flapping open, holding a jar of pickles in one hand and a half-knitted scarf in the other. Apparently, she took up knitting to “relax her stomach.” This morning, I wake up to her whispering “I think I’m a kombucha now” and burping in her sleep. The dog has moved his bed into the bathroom and won’t make eye contact with either of us. I grabbed my keys and said I was going out for coffee. The dog followed. He needed air. I needed therapy. So here I am at a café with a silent, traumatized schnauzer, drinking espresso like it’s holy water. The barista asked if I wanted oat milk. I said no, because my trauma already comes in liquid form. Hope your morning’s less... fermented. EDIT: To those raising eyebrows in the comments—hey, fair enough. Humor’s subjective. It’s a story. No kombucha was harmed, no souls were actually fermented, and yes, the dog is emotionally recovering with the help of peanut butter and a weighted blanket. The relationship is fine. The only thing that truly suffered was the fish’s dignity. This isn’t a manifesto. It’s satire. If you made it all the way to the part about vegan hotdog shakes and still thought this was a cry for help instead of a comedy-horror spiral, then I truly admire your commitment to missing the point. To everyone else who laughed, side-eyed their own bathrobe, and gave their pets a reassuring pat—thank you. You're the reason the fish hasn’t completely given up. Yet. submitted by /u/Moriloqui to r/stories [link] [comments]

How many laundry hampers do you use?
My wife and I use 2 laundry hampers (not factoring in kids clothes or towels) and sort them by darks and lights. However, we end up sorting and washing athletic gear and bulkier items separately. I feel like I’d be better off with one hamper and doing smaller more frequent washes. Which wouldn’t bother me. How does everyone else tackle their laundry management? submitted by /u/YellgoDuck to r/laundry [link] [comments]

Laundry hamper level up
Not a direct unfuck, but a little trick I would like to share. Laundry has been a real struggle for me throughout my life. I used to just drop everything on the floor, and put only what I needed for the next day in the machine. Not to mention the chair of doom, with the toppling mountain of clothes that I have only worn once for a short time. Fast forward to my 30s when I moved into an apartment with a laundry room in the basement and you could only get a booking for the room about every two weeks. I was fairly well forced into sorting myself out or wearing dirty clothes. So I figured out having lots of hampers for dirty clothes helped so 1. I don't have enough floor space to have a "floordrobe" and 2. I can avoid having to sort my laundry, which I absolutely loath. I recently levelled up my laundry hamper game with these bad boys. Pretty damn happy with it. I had a hamper from IKEA previously with four compartments. I'm going to get some more baskets on top for smaller loads and another one for clean clothes that are waiting to be put away (because sometimes that gets pretty empty before I actually manage to put them away). This is where the dirty clothes go. Then I have hooks all over my bedroom for the not clean/not dirty clothes. This has worked for me for 10+ years now. Doesn't need to be a fancy set up. Maybe it could work for you? submitted by /u/Reen842 to r/UnfuckYourHabitat [link] [comments]

AITA for asking my husband to carry the heavy hamper of clothes down the stairs on his way so I could do our laundry?
AITA here? So the laundry basket gets really heavy right andit’s in our bedroom upstairs. My husband (M-29) went to go to bathroom upstairs and I asked him if he could bring the hamper down for me (F-29) on his way back down so I can start our laundry. (I would still have to carry it down another flight of stairs into the basement.) He said “no I’m working” I said “it’s on your way down, can you please help me” then he literally blows up and says no again and then I’m like “can you you please just bring it down with you so I can do your laundry too” and he refuses to come downstairs saying that I have to apologize and that he refuses to bring it down until I ask nicely (which I literally did the first time) then I say that I already asked nicely and it was him that responded meanly and he says “well then I’m not bringing it down”. Then he storms down the stairs and doesn’t bring it. Then I get mad because he could’ve brought it down by now had he just been a helpful husband and then he keeps saying I have to apologize. Eventually he gets tired of me telling him that this is completely ridiculous then he storms back up and brings it down and slams the entire thing on the floor so hard in front of me. Should I take my laundry out and leave his there? Would that make me the asshole? submitted by /u/More_Car_407 to r/AmItheAsshole [link] [comments]

MOMMMM!!! I’ve been in a womens shelter for three months and I had to leave so much behind to not set off any alarms. I’ve finally been able to afford a laundry hamper and full body mirror 💙 I’ve never been so grateful so razor refills and a clock. A water bottle! Kitchen towels! They’re so pretty!
I’m literally dancing around my room opening this haul I’ve finally been able to afford after struggling for so long. It feels so bitter sweet. I have no one to celebrate this with who will understand why this is such a big amazing moment for me 💚💚💚💚 I’m so happy right now to have the basics I’ve been saving for months. Truthfully there’s no one I can celebrate all these milestones with. I’ve come so since I escaped and I wish I could tell the whole world or have someone say omg I see you! You’re doing it! This is a big deal! Thank you for being that safe space for me moms 💚 Edit: I forgot the other stuff I got! I’m literally happy crying from gratitude! I got a steel 30oz tumblr for the summer. It’s so cute and classy. No more rationing plastic water bottles. I can’t stop staring at it. I’m dancing in front of my mirror with my tumblr like the happiest I’ve been in so long. My clock is so big!! No more racing around looking for a device wondering what time it is while getting ready (I have ADHD so clocks help so much). I got face towels, no more paper towels!! But i got some of those and toilet paper too! I was using one roll of paper towels for both. I got the comfiest flip flops that I don’t ever want to take off. I got that lysol spray that smells like lavender 💜 and dryer sheets and febreeze that I keep spraying on everything lol god it feels so good. Body lotion!! And it smells like summer!! And it’s from my favorite vegan brand. I still can’t get over having my trash in an actual trash can and my laundry in an actual hamper that won’t stink. And another small laundry basket to carry my laundry up that won’t take using all my strength to climb the stairs. Can you tell I went to target? Lol thanks for letting me share this, I’ve been dying to tell anyone Edit 2: OMG A GOLD I LOVE THIS SUBREDDIT 🥺💓 Edit 3: I turned my phone off the night I posted this and woke up to all of this 💓 I’m so overwhelmed I can’t even put it into words. I’m sorry I couldn’t update sooner. My rabbit had a little scare this week and I’ve been high key stressed about getting him better and getting him to take some meds. He’s doing a little better now thankfully. I just didn’t have the social battery or energy to respond or update until now. I honestly didn’t think anyone would see this. Maybe one or two people but the out pouring of love I’ve received is one of the most touching moments I’ve experienced on Reddit. To be seen and celebrated with like this, it helps so much on the lonely harder days than you can imagine. I want to respond to each and everyone of you, but I might not get to it tonight. I’m so sorry to keep everyone waiting and sorry I couldn’t update sooner. I just want to put my full energy and focus into my replies To everyone who offered me some help, I can’t tell you the feelings of gratitude and love I had when I saw your messages. The internet can be such a crazy mean place. But all of your messages restore my faith in humanity and give me so much hope for our world. Im overwhelmed and want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your kindnesses are so heart warming. It’s really kept me going this week. I’m going to get back to everyone as soon as I can. Thank you for being so patient and sweet to me. I don’t know if I can post or link my stuff here so I’ll message everyone who offered individually. Moms, siblings, friends, fam, i love you all so much. I wish all the blessings on you. I honestly cannot wait to be in the position where I can scroll through this subreddit and offer kindness and help like you all have done for me 💛 I can’t wait to pay it forward and be a mom for a minute to more people like me who need support and love the most You’re all my favorite people in the internet Edit 4: I’m so sorry, I have ASD and things slip from my mind so quickly. I wanted to say thank you so much for all the awards!!!! I literally dropped my phone when I woke up and saw all of them. Good lord I’ve never received so many golds, let alone awards! I’m going around giving everyone all the rewards I can now lol thank you so much for appreciating and celebrating my little wins and milestones.

AITA for not doing laundry that’s not in the hamper?
I (23 F) have lived with my bf (27M) for a little over a year, been together 2.5 years. He refuses to put clothes in the hamper. I work full time as a nurse and still manage to do all of our household chores, while he works full time also but almost expects me to do everything. I think he expects it because I’ve always done it, but I’ve always done it because I can’t stand it not being done. If I don’t do our chores they will never get done. He will ask me where a shirt or pair of pants are and I tell him, because I do all the laundry. I simply asked him to put his clothes in the hamper to make my life easier and to keep our home tidy, but he always “forgets”. I now only do the clothes that make it in the hamper, which is always only my clothes. He had an important meeting today and asked me where a specific shirt and pants were. I told him I only did the laundry that was in the hamper. He got mad and told me I should have known he had this meeting and should have at least washed those. He was late because he didn’t have clean clothes and had to quick wash those. I feel bad he was late for an important meeting, but I am not his mother. Am I the asshole? EDIT: not really an edit, more of an addition. I know most people are asking if he’s not going household chores, what is he adding to the relationship? Why am I staying? I won’t lie, I’ve thought about leaving over various different issues but we talk about them and work on them. He supports me emotionally in huge huge ways I don’t know I could do myself, even though I go to therapy weekly. We both have childhood issues we’re dealing with and he is someone I’ve always felt safe with and he’s someone who understands. It’s more than just household chores and if “the D is that good”. I do understand most everyone’s opinions though and know this is unacceptable, and a big sit down is coming up tonight. submitted by /u/shayyyyyyyyla to r/AmItheAsshole [link] [comments]

LPT: If you need to leave immediately and have no time to pack clothes due to a natural disaster, abusive SO, or whatever reason just grab your dirty laundry hamper.
Years ago my siblings and I were taken from my parents due to child abuse/neglect, and my grandparents were the ones getting us with Child Protective Services. My grandmother went and saw that our laundry baskets were full so she just grabbed that as she wanted to get us out of there ASAP. Her logic, all the dirty clothes are things we chose to wore, and cleaning them would take a few hours, but in this moment it takes a minute to just grab them. If we were to try and pack our clothes, it would just extend the amount of time we would be in that toxic situation of crying, yelling, and screaming. Luckily my brother was a stickler for laundry and had gotten each of us our own basket. Older siblings, and grandparents are the best. I've remembered that ever since, and every time I've needed to leave in an immediate hurry and didn't have time to pack for whatever reason but would have time to clean the clothes later, laundry basket. I've told this story for 18 years to people, and I can count on both hands off the top of my head the amount of times someone told me this actually came in handy. I've been told of abusive relationships, emergency evacuation situations, and several other random situations that required the gathering of clothes immediately. I happened to remember this due to having a dream about that incident, and don't recall anyone sharing this tip. It surprisingly saves a lot of time, hassle and effort if you don't mind working a little later. Worst case scenario most people wear a piece of clothing once and stick it in the dirty clothes basket, technically you can get away with wearing something again in an emergency. Whatever works. EDIT!!!: I thank you all for the awards, the gesture is appreciated, however you should donate to a non profit that helps during abuse situations, or natural disaster reliefs or something of that nature. Here's a list of child abuse/neglect non profits. There's also a nice list here for non profits that help out in natural disaster relief as well. Please consider donating to these non profits rather than giving me an award, I thank you for the consideration, but your money can be better spent towards these organizations of your choosing. Thank you! submitted by /u/sicurri to r/LifeProTips [link] [comments]
