Look, I'm a shy and anxious guy (50ish) that can be a bit pessimistic. I just have a natural gift for being perceptive. I guess people only like to hear the good things. Anyway, it was my twin sister (50ish) and brother-in-law's wedding day. I looked at the forecast and saw there was bad storm coming. I went to warn her and what does she do? She throws a MASSIVE temper tantrum. I can't help she's extremally bipolar. I felt such like an outcast that I left my family, I felt like I was a burden. Now all they do is tell lies about me and not to bring my name up around the family. AITJ?

The real world can be cruel and unjust and full of lies. I (48M) wanted my son (29M) to live in a world where he can feel safe and live a perfect life. At the same time, I wanted to inspire, spark joy and provide excellent entertainment to the common, poor, unhappy people who work unfulfilling jobs and are just struggling to get by. Then I had an idea, why don't make my dream into reality, Reality TV to be precise. Everyone can grow up watching my son.

Some people are calling me controlling or saying I violated his rights. But I did this out of love. I gave him a better life than 99.9% of people ever get. He’s my masterpiece. Am I really the jerk for not wanting to watch my son walk out into a cold, meaningless existence just because he’s having an identity crisis? AITJ?
