AITA for ‘inserting myself’ into someone else’s dinner situation?
A woman recounts an incident at a restaurant where she intervened after witnessing a mother struggle to care for her crying baby while the baby’s father and his presumed parents offered no help. When the mother began breastfeeding, the father reacted negatively, telling her to feed the baby in the bathroom.
The woman couldn’t stay silent—she confronted him, making a strong statement about breastfeeding and calling out his lack of support. Although the mother was able to finish feeding her baby in peace, the woman’s boyfriend was embarrassed by the public confrontation and is now upset with her.
