A post called ‘AITA for being my nephew’s first word’ has gone viral on Reddit and left everyone in agreement he’s not the problem.
It’s from ‘Am I the a**hole?’ – a popular Reddit thread where people ask whether they were in the wrong in certain situations.
‘AITA for being my nephew’s first word’
The viral ‘AITA for being my nephew’s first word’ post begins with the writer explaining that his brother has a 15-year-old baby that he regularly babysits.
He works on a dairy farm and the baby often goes to work with him. They spend a lot of time together and the infant loves the animals.
The child’s parents have been trying to get him to say his first words for a while now, but haven’t had any luck.
“We were all over at my parents house for a Sunday get together and I was sitting playing blocks with my nephew, he suddenly looks up at me and starts going B B B B B BE BE,” he says.
“I thought it was just normal baby talk then he gets more aggressive repeating those letters over and over again. Then he starts going N N N N N, he then shouts BEN and points at me.”
The Reddit user’s brother and wife then started yelling at him saying he was coaching the baby and being selfish.
“They immediately pick him up and my brother yells at me ‘You took away his first word that was supposed to be our moment’,” the post continued.
Everyone is really mad
Even the writer’s parents think he’s in the wrong for teaching the baby his name, but he insists that he didn’t do it on purpose.
“The only time he hears my name is when anyone else says it. They think i should apologise to my sister in law for ruining why should have been a mothers special moment,” he explains.
The Reddit user then adds that she doesn’t act like much of a mother anyway and he looks after her son five days a week.
Reddit says he’s not the problem
Reddit users are all in agreement that the guy is NTA (not the a**hole) and are reassuring him that he didn’t do anything wrong.
One person wrote: “You have the kid five days a week. Of course he’ll bond with you and it’s not surprising he said your name. You’re the one raising him.”
“LOL… ‘took away his first word’ oh that’s a good one! That’s not how it works. Brother & SIL need to chill out & take care of their own kid,” another said.
A third person added: “I don’t know how you could possibly be TA, you didn’t do anything. Babies start talking to communicate what they want, and you spend quality time with him, so he wanted you.”
“NTA. My son’s first word was bird. I doubt the cardinal outside his window was coaching him,” another joked.
