AITA for making my whole family go on a diet because my daughter is dieting?

22 January 2026 @ 4:12 am

I (F52) live with my husband (M55) and our two kids: daughter (F15) and son (M17). My daughter has always been on the chubbier side, and honestly, our whole family is overweight. However, since she started high school, her weight gain became extreme. In the span of just a few months, she went from being somewhat chubby to weighing over 300 pounds at only 15 years old. Obviously, this worried us a lot. We later realized the weight gain was a symptom of deeper issues. High school has been very hard for her, and she was being bullied. She started stress eating, and since we all gain weight easily, things escalated quickly. We are addressing the emotional side of this with a therapist and working with the school, but we also can’t ignore the physical weight gain.

I know this sounds insane. I've raised it with my supervisor and the nurse. Both said the guy has dementia. However, we have fully lucid conversations. He had me test him to prove he didn't have dementia. He remembered a number and a series of 5 words for a week and then recited them back to me. He isn't confused. He IS agitated.

He has also stated that the owner of the care home is a cousin of his daughter-in-law. I have not verified this - but he got her full name and date of birth correct. I verified that on Companies House. He told me his address where he lived, what colour and make of car would be parked outside etc. I drove by and all the information was correct. Is there someone else I can call to get this man reassessed? No one seems to be botheted b

What was something a guest did in your house that upset you?

21 January 2026 @ 9:34 pm

Last Christmas we had a relative claim he didn’t want a Christmas dinner but instead wanted two fried eggs. It was real fun having to fry two eggs on top of doing a Christmas lunch. Anyway, what about you guys? Whether it was someone being downright rude, insulting or thoughtless, I wanna hear it. submitted by /u/izzy_7_2004 to r/AskUK [link] [comments]
