I (22F) have been saving my baby items from when I was young. This ranges from clothing, blankets, bibs, bottles, decor, crib bedding, and other miscellaneous items. I had it all in boxes in my closet -- some decor I had displayed in my room. I have sentimental attachment to it and want to pass it down to my children in hopes of it being a family heirloom one day.

My sister (26F) had her first child, my niece. I love my sister and her little family. I adore and love my niece and I've gotten a few baby items or toys for her as well.

When I returned home from university, i noticed that the decor I had displayed was gone. I asked my mom about it and she said my sister saw the decor and she told her to take it. I told her that I was saving it for my future children and my mom just denyed that it was valuable to me.

Regardless, I didn't want to argue with her about it. I went back to my room and saw that all of my boxes were gone as well. I call my sister to confirm and yes, she had taken everything. I tried to be reasonable and I told her, "i'd like everything back once you're done with it." My sister got very angry at me, saying that it was hers now and she plans to use it for her other children - and then pass it down. I told her that this was all MY baby stuff and if she wanted heirlooms, she should have saved her own baby items. Her argument was that she never planned on having children so she didn't save anything, mom gave her the stuff so now it's hers, and that I should just deal with it because "if it was so important, why didn't you take it with you (to college)?"

At this point, i felt like i was arguing with a brick wall. I demanded my stuff back immediately and said I'd go over to her house and get it back myself. I tried to be nice and let her use it until my niece grew out of it but she just doesn't want to give it back at all. She told my mom and my mom yelled at me saying that technically, all of my baby items are my mom's possessions since she purchased them, thus my mom has every right to give to whoever she pleases. My mom and sister also claim that i'm lying about these items being valuable to me and im just saying that to be rude.

Mom, sister, and BIL say I'm in the wrong, my dad isn't getting into it, my others siblings are minors (below 10 y/o) so i'm not taking their opinions seriously. Basically the entire family is against me and I don't know what to do. I do know that my sister isn't well off but I did offer her to keep the items for now but that wasn't enough for her. AITA?

tl;dr: My mom gave my older sister (26F) all of my (22F) baby items that I was saving for my future children while I was at university. My sister refuses to ever give them back.

EDIT: i wanted to add some clarifications due to comments. my mom saved our things (as well as my younger siblings) and we all have them in our closets. those items were mainly clothing and bedding. when my sister moved out, she was sorting through things and decided she didn't need them. her reasoning (to my understanding) being she didn't plan on having children. ever since she was a teen she said she didn't want children. so she decided to donate them all, she was maybe 23 or 24 when she moved out so it wasn't that long ago and imo, she was grown enough to see the impact of that. we have a younger sister and she didn't take her things 1. bc my mom didn't let her and 2. bc my things are closer to the time my sister was born in and she wanted more older style items rather than modern.

however, a lot of the items - such as toys or decor - were used on my room until i did a remodel of my room in my teens. those items were my decision to save. also the bottles and bibs were in the back of the kitchen storage which i also decided to save once i was older. my mom does take the credit for saving clothing and bedding and some blankets, but some of it was my decision to save as well (other blankets, decor, bottles, toys, etc)

Also, i still live at home. i go to university out of state so i live on campus during the school year and come home during breaks. my room is still mine until i move out, which is hopefully soon once i graduate in december.

EDIT 2: i am mexican so a lot of the items are culturally significant. my bibs were not regular bibs you can buy at walmart, they have cultural significance. the bottles are glass and the nipples have been removed. some of the blankets (and bibs) even have my name embroidered. i'm not sure what my sister is doing with those items - or if she will remove my name and put my nieces name over the top. i know it might seem silly to pass down these items to my kids but i have that sentiment and that was my plan for years now.

Recently our mom celebrated a really big milestone birthday. Over a year before her big day she invited all of us on a cruise to celebrate. We are her four bio kids-47F, 45F, 42F and 33M -our half brother- and our partners and kiddos our step dad who essentially raised us and our step sister. Our mom and step dad have been married for 35 years- He has a daughter (51F) from his first marriage which ended 14 years before our mom married him. Our step sister was always really difficult-she was an only child and in our perception was spoiled and acted entitled. She rarely visited and when she did-maybe 3-4 time a year-she was demanding and petulant-she was in her 20s and we were middle school age and younger. There was a falling out for a few years in her late 20s between our step dad and his daughter-they didn't speak at all-The rest of us got on with our lives-college, marriage, etc. After a few years our mom tried to be "the peace maker" and bring them together -she arranged for them to visit her where she lived-3 hours away-made sure there were acknowledgments of birthdays and holidays, made arrangements for her to attend family milestones like weddings etc. Our step sister moved out of state (she lives with her mom and step dad.) Our mom arranged for mini trips to visit with her-she has a minor disability and doesn't work. During this time our step sister never showed any gratitude or appreciation for what our mom was trying to do-she rarely wanted to be included in family gatherings (but would complain if she wasn’t invited) Fast forward to the family cruise (which my mom was paying for.) We-her bio kids-wanted to do something really special-we all chipped in for a very generous gift card to a spa/retreat. She has always been there for us and has been generous in helping when needed. She really deserved something special. The first night of the cruise we presented her with individual cards and our gift. Later that evening our stepsister railed on our brother-her half brother- for not including her. She ranted that she was so embarrassed and humiliated because she wasn't included (she didn't even bring a birthday card) In all honesty we hadn't even considered her because she rarely interested in participating in any of our "family" events and besides this was our Mom- So-AlTA -(we) because we didn't ask if she wanted to be included? (She showed up empty handed-not even a cheap birthday card) As a side note-she has never acknowledged any of us -ie-birthdays, etc. Once in a while she will "like" one of our posts on Social Media-but has never reached out otherwise. Essentially she really doesn't give a flying leap about any of us -not even her dad. We really believe she maintains the minimal amount of communication with him to stay in his will.

My dad died when I (17f) was 4. I was lucky enough that my paternal extended family were still in my life after he died and I had people I could talk to about him. But I always hated how little I remember him. I miss him like crazy and wish I had him in my life a lot longer. I wish he was still here today. But he's not. My mom never understood my feelings about my dad because she got married 2 months and had my half sister 4 months after my dad died (she was already dating my stepdad) and she would say it wasn't like I grew up without a dad. I tried explaining to my mom but it was a waste of time because she brushed off everything I said and would direct it back to my stepdad. But no matter how kind or loving my stepdad is, and he is, he doesn't make up for my dad. But I get some comfort from the fact I have my dad's family present in my life.

My dad's family is a sore point though. They never invited my half sister (13) along with us and they don't treat her like their granddaughter too. They have nothing to do with her. It created a lot of jealousy and resentment and my mom and stepdad feed into it.

My sister picks fights with me about them. She told me it's not fair I get stuff from them and she gets nothing or how I have a family that I keep from her. She said we should both get the same stuff and same time with them and I told her that doesn't happen because they're my dad's family and not her family at all. She talks about how they're not my dad's family because her dad is my dad in all the ways that count. So I try to explain to her why that's not true. It never ends with her seeing things from my side but eh, I expect it by now.

But recently it has become so much worse and yesterday my sister was saying how shitty it is for me to spend Father's Day with my paternal family every year and how I shouldn't be so obsessed with a guy who died before she was even born. And that I act like I'm so different to her. I said we are different because she has both her parents alive and I don't. She told me I do. I just won't accept it. I told her she doesn't realize how lucky she is that her dad's alive and she doesn't have to spend her life wishing he was here. She was like that's so not fair to say because you have a dad and you won't let him make that better. You'd rather miss a guy who died 13 years ago and I told her because he's my dad. I told her I'm allowed to miss my dad and wish I had him.

My sister told her parents and my mom was so pissed that I told my sister she doesn't know how lucky she is. Mom said I benefit so much from the dead dad crap and I'm okay with my sister missing out and it's super shitty of me.

AITA?

My 11 yo daughter is "graduating" lower school tomorrow. My ex wife texted me mid week last week and said she thinks we should do something for our daughter after graduation. I said "sure" and on Friday, she offered to host a party at her place. That was fine by me, and she asked if I could bring a cooler of ice with some beer and I agreed. I think the party is small maybe 3-5 other kids and some parents.

I told my girlfriend(18months) about the graduation and the after-party on Sunday morning, two days after the plans were made. I made the mistake of saying "My ex wife and I" were hosting a party for the kids. She got really upset with me that

1. I didn't consult her and that by having the party at my ex's it somewhat excluded her due to the awkwardness of my ex wife around my gf.
2. She feels ignored and that I'm favoring the ex wife and her feelings. She thinks my ex is using her power to gain my attention. ( I have no feelings for my ex, fwiw)

From my perspective, a lower school graduation is kind of a non event. My girlfriend might want to go, maybe not. She is very close with my kids but going to their "events" is a more recent thing. I can see her side of it because I wasn't thinking of her when agreeing to the after party at my ex's. However, it doesn't seem she see's my perspective on this and is making a very big deal of this and we are in a fight over it. AITH?

I have two kids, who are 2 and 4 years old. And one thing I try to reinforce with them is that if mom or dad says "no" if they go to the other parent, the answer they will get is no. Which means if they ask my wife, and she says no, regardless of how I feel on the matter, I'm going to back her up. And I expect my wife to do the same. Well this morning we were getting ready to leave and 4 year old asked my wife if she could get out a game that always makes a mess. So my wife said no, immediately 4 turned to me and asked the same question. So I said, "No, your mom told you no." Which upset my wife, and I don't quite understand why. AITA?

I (34M) have been divorced from my ex (31F) since December. We got divorced after I spent a summer trying to fix our marriage when I discovered her affair. After saying she'd never be faithful to me again, we separated and were finally over. We share our 4 year old son who is just my whole world. I only live in this town because we moved here for her to go to school, where she met AP and left me; so I'm really only here for my son. He is currently playing T-Ball and had his second game the other week, where the issue started.

I'll spare some of the other drama for another post if needed, but after that game, my ex and I got into a few verbal arguments about how I treated her AP and mother and that I was apparently 'rude' and 'unwelcoming' to them. I still don't know what I should have done in that situation....was I supposed to be jolly and act like their affair and lies didn't matter? Like I was supposed to treat them as family? No thanks. I don't plan to be rude, but I don't see any need to be friendly either, I'm just neutral as I'm tired of giving her or them any of my emotions. Now, to the issue:

My son and his team were invited to the local Triple-A ballclub for their season opener to meet the team and watch the game on a Wednesday. So I said I told my ex I would meet them there as this was a fun event that I wanted to be present for with my son. She said that I was not invited and should not go as it is her day to have my son and because I created an uneasy feeling for her being around my ex, I shouldn't go. I took this very personally as there was no way I was going to be denied time with my son for her issues. She said "Well, if you're there, just know it's my right if we do not come at all" to which I responded "I will be fine and can handle being around you all, so if you don't come, that's on your conscience"

Well, I went to the game, and she did not. She did not bring our son, so there I was as the only parent without their kid present for the game. I still joined the team as I'm an honorary coach and wanted to support them all, but I left soon after as I just didn't know what to do. I feel as if she has chosen her 'comfort' over what was best for our son. I'm not even mad, just disappointed and realizing how selfish she is. But Reddit, AITA? I know I have every right to be at my son's events, and I'm not going to sacrifice that time with him, but this was just hard to bear so I'm seeking advice. I felt like my son was robbed of a wonderful moment and that this will be a theme for our post-divorce life and I don't want that for my kid. We have not spoken on the issue since it happened and I'll be seeing her for the first time today to get my son back. She says we need to 'respect' each other and act like stable parents, but then she goes and pulls this on me, which I feel is way more disrespectful, but could I be wrong? Thanks for your comments in advance.

I'm looking to upgrade my old Iphone XR and switch to Android. I've been torn between Pixel 7a and the mentioned S21 FE since they are similarily priced where I live. I value a good display, performance and build quality above anything else (I mostly use my phone for social media, browsing the internet and some light gaming from time to time). I am able to get the FE brand new for about $310 (1270 PLN). Is it worth the price? Should I consider any other option? I've owned a Samsung A6 a long time ago and the Samsung user experience while using the phone felt great (I really like samsung UI and the way the phones look)

Got my yellow Flip 5 in on Monday and the Flipsuit case along with it. Originally I left the plates out so o could see the yellow, but figured I'd put them just to see what they look like. How did I not know that when you put the plates in the case, the phone reads them and changed the passive background of the front screen to match them?

It's the simple things in life that amaze me and now I just want to be able to get more plates instead of just the 2 colors. Nothing informative here, but I wanted to share. So far loving the new phone by the way. Just enough has changed from the Flip4 to make me really happy I switched.

I was an Apple fanboy that loved iPhones until I realized that Samsung phones were simply much better phones.

I even thought about getting a Macbook as my laptop, but I realized that I was brainwashed by Apple.

The iPhone was poison to me, which almost made me commit the sin of getting Apple devices.

I am soon going to ditch my iPhone XS for a brand-new Samsung.

But I want to reflect on my past Apple fanboyism.

I wish I can stop feeling guilty about this, my past is so cringe...

I have the first frame tv and the fact that I can’t turn the tv off by simply pressing the power button has to be absolute dumbest feature I’ve ever seen added onto a smart tv. Why should I have to hold the power button to turn it off when there’s a frame button anyway? If I knew someone at Samsung I’d have to challenge them to a duel or something over this because this is one of the dumbest smart tvs I’ve ever had. Whoever designed it should be ostracized from the decision making table at Samsung and banned from ever engineering anything ever again. Just had to vent for a little bit. Rant over

Not a good look for Samsung. I have heard they are OK in other countries, but in Australia they are the worst company I have ever dealt with, and it seems others agree.

This is my first time using a phone with an s-pen and I have watched some youtube videos but most of them are just what the default features of the s-pen are.

I'm curious, if there are apps (Samsung or 3rd party) that utilize the s-pen and can make it interact with the phone or give it other functions/features.

Any tips/tricks that you think are underrated or not used by most people will also be welcome. Thanks!

Just as the title says,

I bought a new Galaxy s23 ultra from samsung.com on 8/16. I picked up my new phone from the shipper on 8/19 after work.

I got home excited to play with my new toy and set it up to my liking that night. I played with it all weekend and went to Bestbuy to get a new case for it. I was really enjoying the phone and had no complaints. I had come to terms with moving forward with my purchase and sending back my trade in tomorrow morning (Wednesday) on my way into work. Well that plan got derailed. I was locked out of my phone this evening, according to the notification it was reported lost, stolen or I had failed to send in my trade in.

I had indeed failed to send in my trade in yet but according to the email I had until 9/1/23 to send in my trade in. Why was I locked out? I contacted Samsung and they blamed it on me for not sending my trade in, but they haven't really given me any time. I couldn't send it out over the weekend and if I had sent it out on Monday they would have not received the phone by the time they decided to lock it. Samsung said they would have to send this back to their KNOX team to get this unlocked and it could take up to 24-48 hours and they cannot unlock it until they get my trade in. Right now I switched my SIM back to my old phone I was going to trade in so I have a phone for the time being but this seems a little ridiculous...

This situation has really soured my taste and faith in Samsung and now I just want to keep my old faithful Oneplus 7 pro. Samsung said I can return the device but it has all of my data on there and I cannot wipe it since it's locked. What can I do? Can I send it back with my stuff on there and they will wipe it?
