Mom Admits She's "Upset" After Her 8-Year-Old Daughter's Friend "Insulted" Their Home During a Playdate
The woman shared her story on a popular community site — where the majority of people said they thought she was overreactingNEED TO KNOW A woman says she's 'upset' that her daughter's friend called their house 'so small' during a recent playdate The woman admitted that the topic is a 'sore point' for her because 'most kids at their school have larger houses' She shared her story on a popular community forum, where the majority of people said they thought she was overreactingA woman admitted that she felt 'upset' after a child 'insulted' her home — and she's wondering if she's overreacting. She detailed her story on the 'Am I Being Unreasonable?' forum on the U.K.-based community site a place where women can go to seek advice from others on a variety of topics. In her post, titled 'Child's friend insulted house,' the woman explained that her 8-year-old daughter recently had a friend over for a playdate. She then said that the other child kept asking 'why our house and garden are so small' — and repeatedly commented on it. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. 'This is a sore point as most kids at their school have larger houses,' the original poster (OP) added. The woman said that while her daughter seemed to 'brush it off,' she was personally left with lingering feelings about the comments. "AIBU [am I being unreasonable] to be upset by this, or is this normal?' she asked at the end of her post. The vast majority of commenters said they thought the OP was overreacting. 'She's 8. She doesn't understand sensitivities around money and house size,' one person said. 'Children just say things,' added someone else. 'They might have just been observing. It's unlikely an 8-year-old would be judgmental!' 'She's 8, and at that age, she's just stating a fact. If her house is bigger, she will presume that everyone's house is the same as her house. It's a sore point for you,' agreed another person. 'She isn't some kind of miniature Joan Collins passing judgment on your house. She's just observing something out loud.' Others said that while they don't think the OP should take the child's comments too seriously, they can also understand why she was bothered by them. 'That scenario is my absolute fear,' admitted one commenter, adding, 'I work hard to give my [daughter] what I can, but my best doesn't compare at all to what her friends have.' 'That happened to me when my kid was 8, too. And it did stick in my head,' said another mom. One person, however, recommended that the OP use the incident as a teachable moment for her daughter.

Never comment on what people are wearing, their family or their home. It is just downright rude!' they said. Read the original article on People Solve the daily Crossword

'Landmark moment' for Penzance as neighbourhood plan is approved
Over 90 per cent of voters have approved the Penzance Neighbourhood Plan. The plan, one of Cornwall's most complex, took over a decade to develop and covers a parish with multiple communities. During the referendum on July 31, residents were asked if they wanted Cornwall Council to use the Penzance Parish neighbourhood plan for planning applications. A total of 2,928 electorate members responded with a 'yes', making up a whopping 91.6 per cent of the vote, while only 268 voted 'no'. The plan was developed by the Penzance, Newlyn, Mousehole, Heamoor, Gulval, Paul, and Eastern Green communities after comprehensive surveys and consultations to identify key priorities for the parish. Now approved, the Penzance Neighbourhood Plan will be a key element in Cornwall Council's decision-making process regarding planning applications within Penzance Parish. Mayor of Penzance, Stephen Reynolds, was among the multitude of volunteers who contributed to the plan's development. He said: "This is a landmark moment for our community. "For the first time, planning applications in the Penzance parish area will be decided not only using policies written in Westminster and Truro, but also policies developed by local people, for local people. "I'm delighted that thousands of residents showed the commitment to come out and vote. "After many years in the making, we finally have a set of planning policies that reflect the kind of place we want to live in, and to hand on to future generations." The over 200-page-long Penzance Neighbourhood Plan was mainly formulated by local volunteers, including representatives from all Penzance Parish communities. This Community Link Group conducted surveys, organised drop-ins, and used the feedback to form policies representing local residents' desires. The plan incorporates policies identifying more than 80 parish green spaces to be preserved from development, most designated as Local Green Spaces, the national planning policy's highest degree of protection. The plan also features a Principal Residence policy, restricting new-build homes in certain areas to be occupied as principal residences only. This applies to second-home hotspots like Mousehole, Paul, Tredavoe, parts of Newlyn centre, and areas around Penzance promenade and harbour. Additional policies safeguard biodiversity corridors and establish green buffers to maintain the distinct identities of the parish's villages.

Woman Says Her Mother-in-Law Lied About Taking Flowers Home After Her Wedding
'I can't help but be so angry at her for keeping all my flowers and not saying a word to me,' the woman said of her new mother-in-lawNEED TO KNOW A newlywed woman found out that her mother-in-law had secretly kept most of the flowers from her wedding In a Mumsnet post, she recalled her mother-in-law saying that she "forgot" the flowers were in her home "I can't help but be so angry at her for keeping all my flowers," the woman said, after admitting she had plans for the bloomsA woman is on the verge of arguing with her mother-in-law, less than a week after marrying into the family. Venting about the situation on the online forum Mumsnet, the woman explained that her wedding organizer gave her in-laws all of the flowers that were at her wedding to take home when the reception venue had to be cleared. 'Bridal bouquet, 5 bridesmaids, flower girl and table decor. Plus 2 bags of leftover decor,' she wrote, listing the booms. 'The next morning, I went to collect everything from their house and my MIL [mother-in-law] only gave me 2 bags of decor and no flowers. 'I asked her, 'Is this all you have?' the woman recalled. 'I wonder where all my flowers have gone. She said, 'I don't know, I only have these 2 bags of decorations.' ' The woman said that five days later, she returned to her in-laws' house because she had to pick up her father-in-law's suit. She was left in shock when she spotted all of her flowers had been arranged around their home in as many as eight vases. 'By this time they were all dying,' the woman said of the flowers, before adding that her mother-in-law 'claimed she forgot she had them.' She continued, 'I really wanted to do something special with the bouquet, and I can't help but be so angry at her for keeping all my flowers and not saying a word to me, whilst I'm thinking they have been lost. 'AIBU [am I being unreasonable] for being upset?' the woman asked. 'I don't plan on having a massive argument, I'd really like to bring it up and let her know she's hurt me.' Responses to the post sympathized with the woman and shared their advice on how she should handle the situation. Many advised her to get her husband to confront his mom, while others warned that ignoring the situation could lead to more issues in the future. 'Absolutely, say something,' one person commented. 'Lots of brides do things with their bouquets. I was a bridesmaid 35 years ago and the bride had her bouquet dried and framed. Your MIL was out of order, bare-faced lying. 'I would suggest she orders a replacement bouquet for you to do what you were planning to do.'

And done deliberately, too. How could she possibly 'forget' a house full of flowers that weren't actually hers?? I was given about 4 bouquets for my 50th birthday - and I certainly didn't 'forget' seeing them from morning to night! 'I think you'll have your hands full with this woman if you don't make your boundaries very very clear from the start,' the same person continued. 'What on earth was she trying to achieve? Bizarre and unpleasant thing to do.' Read the original article on People Solve the daily Crossword
