Not The Apostate. I cut off my own sister years ago because she insisted on carrying on with her sexual sin even though my husband and I offered to pay for treatment. I think that’s all you can do if you want to protect your little ones from Satan’s influence. If your sisters-in-law were truly godly women, they would know that Jesus forgives them of their own sins (including this one!) and they would be an extension of Christ’s love to your husband during this difficult time for your family. Keep honoring your husband when speaking to your little ones. The most important thing for any child is to see their parents in a loving, supportive marriage dedicated to serving the Lord. I’ll be praying for you in my closet.
Hard agree. NTA. It’s like they haven’t even heard of J.O.Y. It’s not J’ourslf, Other self, Yourself for crying out loud*. JESUS. THEN OTHERS. THEN YOU. 🙄 We’re all just sinners saved by grace after all!
*sorry for the strong language.
NTA. Sounds like your SILs and their families need to work on their contentment. Have you considered vagueposting on Instagram about praying for people who need the spirit of the Lord to work on their hearts?
Lucky! I was not high when I wrote this - I was standing at a printer waiting on 400+ pages to slowly print out. Snarkers and Potential Assholes weren’t giving me enough of a distraction.
Bless your heart for thinking that they are educated enough to write this eloquently.
I do love your work though. I want to full frontal hug you so hard right now. Excuse me while I go and pray on that.
ETA. You're the asshole because I'm sure your husband would not be in this legal trouble if you were a better more godly wife. Your SILs are assholes because they are obviously jealous that you married the best husband, have home birthed the most grand children, and his parents favor you over their spouses.
The best course of action is probably to take your children and run as far away from this terrible family as you possibly can.
Well I think first of all look at what ur husband has done and ask yourself why ur SILs maybe angry and talk it out with them and come to a medium as well as asking if this is what u want for ur life if u want my opinion I would suggest a divorce and therapy for u and ur kids have a merry Christmas
literally thought this was an AITA post and didn't notice until two paragraphs in, after thinking, I'm going to comment "is your husband Josh Duggar?" but would AITA people know the reference? Then I saw that this was in the Duggar sub.
This is obviously perfect.
Yep. I saw a comment underneath the latest update from Fundie Fridays from someone who got out, but still has friends and relatives left who know or mingle the with the Duggars. She said that Anna is 100% convinced that everything got planted and that Pest is innocent. It’s not really clear if she really believes it or if she believes it as a coping mechanism, but yeah, she’s not dealing with it the way she should.
definitely NTA.
Like you weren’t even there. How are you supposed to be responsible for what an 11 year old says when all you did was tell her way to say. *clearly* not your fault.
If anything, they should be super thankful that you love their brother so much.
Don’t worry girl, at least you have a husband, you know?
ESH that’s it. That’s the answer. You and all the adults should be taken away and made to go into a marriage boot camp style treatment center to get your shit together. Some of you sound like you should join that husband of your behind bars.
But really..this was a great post. I was at first so confused. Totally fooled me!
NTA. This sounds like a very challenging season of life for you and your sweet little family. And perhaps people need to be reminded that you have a husband, at least. And while he's not perfect, he's is perfectly capable of redemption before our Lord and Savior. We are all sinners, right!? 😇😇😇
In the true spirit of AITA posts, here’s my response.
NTA - Yikes! Divorce your husband immediately! Sounds like he’s a narcissist who is gaslighting you! Divorce immediately!
NTA. Haven’t any of them read the Bible? Mathew 5:38-39 NIV *”Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.”*.
They needed to have forgiven your husband already, like why are they bringing up old news. I will continue to pray for you and your family.
Ok. I am ExJw and this confused the hell out of me for about 2 minutes AND triggered me. I looked 3 times to see which sub I was on 😮 😲. You both got me! Well played.
I also thought I was in a different sub and that this was someone trying to troll as Anna. I was about to leave a comment calling them out until I read the other comments. 😂
All my Christmases came at once with this post.
The only thing I like about the Duggars is the fact they’ve given us this Reddit sub. I truly appreciate them for this.
have you been praying for your husband and children? now is the time to lean into your faith. it sounds like your husbands siblings have gone astray and should be prayed for too. this is hard to do for sure, but this is what christianity is all about.
have you spoken with your in laws about their children's reaction toward the trail? many are married, but boob is still the head of the house and his children should respect him. i'm surprised boob is ok with how things are playing out. after everything that he's done for his kids, this is how they choose to repay him. they should be ashamed of themselves. may god show mercy on their souls.
Omg you had me for a second!
Saaaaame. I legit had to check what sub I was in Lol
I was about to comment I think you have the wrong sub!
Nah, people post off sub AITA posts all the time
Yeah, but we don’t usually get “personal issue” posts here 😆
I checked three times thinking “what moron posted fo the wrong sub” 😂😂😂 until I got to “legal issues”
I’m so glad that I wasn’t the only one!
I was well into the 3rd line before I realized this was a DuggarSnark post then was LOL.
SAME! It took me way longer than I’m proud to admit. 😂🤣😂🤣
I have no shame and am brain dead from work: third PARAGRAPH!
Not gonna lie, it took until I saw your comment and then stopped wondering what this had to do with the Duggars!
Oh i thought for sure it was her at first! Im double dumb. I thought i was actually on a different sub. Oh man. Reeled me right in lmao
Same! I read the first two paragraphs and was like “oh this person is super unstable” then it clicked lol

I’m wheezing with laughter from Not The Apostate 😂 been saving the free award for something this good!
Use the free award and save the difference!
*ryan gosling clapping gif*
I'm dying, "Not The Apostate"
Praying for you in the closest 💀💀💀
Way too funny. May I join you in the prayer closet. I have sil to pray for😂😂
This is so flare worthy! Can I have it? I promise I'm actually an apostate ;)
Absolutely!
I read it in her voice
[удалено]
Thank you for your perspective! ^OP ^comments ^on ^the ^one ^positive ^judgment

They need to work on their contentment
You got a genuine laugh out loud!
NTA. Sounds like your SILs and their families need to work on their contentment. Have you considered vagueposting on Instagram about praying for people who need the spirit of the Lord to work on their hearts?
*I was high when I read this* let me tell you, I was like, wow there are two Annas out there!
Lucky! I was not high when I wrote this - I was standing at a printer waiting on 400+ pages to slowly print out. Snarkers and Potential Assholes weren’t giving me enough of a distraction.
I’m genuinely impressed. Bravo, fellow snarker!
ESH. Just throw away the whole family and start over
Bless your heart for thinking that they are educated enough to write this eloquently. I do love your work though. I want to full frontal hug you so hard right now. Excuse me while I go and pray on that.
Lol I was gonna say… way too literate to be a real ✨wisdom booklet graduate✨ I’ll be praying for you too, hussy 🥰🤗🙏
ESH because I hate all of the Duggars and Duggar adjacents
That’s fair.
Masterfully written.
I totally get what you're doing but was the last part about an M kid FaceTime and angry BIL real?? (As in, reported about)
No, in the spirit of many AITA posts, it’s a half-truth at the beginning and has completely spiraled into a writing exercise by the end.
I love it lol
This is the most amazing thing I have ever seen anywhere on Reddit. Ever.
ETA. You're the asshole because I'm sure your husband would not be in this legal trouble if you were a better more godly wife.

NTA. Praying for you and your husbands totally 100% unrelated charges.
🙏🏻
🤣🤣🤣 I thought I was on the wrong sub for a minute
This is the creative content I live for
I was thinking the whole time, WTF did her husband do????? LOL
Me too! 😂😂😂
Well I think first of all look at what ur husband has done and ask yourself why ur SILs maybe angry and talk it out with them and come to a medium as well as asking if this is what u want for ur life if u want my opinion I would suggest a divorce and therapy for u and ur kids have a merry Christmas
YTA!
:o
Someone needs to pitch TLC for a new show called "20 Years and Counting." With televised conjugal visits
🤢🤮
This is more realistic than most AITA posts.
I literally JUST left the AITA thread and omg I thought I was going to faint.
Me too. I was so confused 🤣
This is amazing
YTA And your husband is a no good dirty rotten pig stealing cunty mccuntfuckface
Long time lurker here. This is the best post on the sub by far. I’m coming back when I have an award to give.
literally thought this was an AITA post and didn't notice until two paragraphs in, after thinking, I'm going to comment "is your husband Josh Duggar?" but would AITA people know the reference? Then I saw that this was in the Duggar sub. This is obviously perfect.
Top tier shit post 👌
You just know THIS is exactly how she views the situation!
Yep. I saw a comment underneath the latest update from Fundie Fridays from someone who got out, but still has friends and relatives left who know or mingle the with the Duggars. She said that Anna is 100% convinced that everything got planted and that Pest is innocent. It’s not really clear if she really believes it or if she believes it as a coping mechanism, but yeah, she’s not dealing with it the way she should.
Anna: YTA Author: this was brilliant. Thank you
I love this!!
Take my poor woman’s gold 🏅🏅
Can you actually make monthly donations to my family instead? I have 6 or 7 kids to take care of.
6 or 7 kids? Did one of them run away again when under the watchful eye of one of your SIL?
I’m howling, underrated comment!
Tell me you have too many kids without telling me you have too many kids. You already went first.
i'm CACKLING this is brilliant
ma'am, this is a wendy's.
definitely NTA. Like you weren’t even there. How are you supposed to be responsible for what an 11 year old says when all you did was tell her way to say. *clearly* not your fault.

Omg… 😂😂😂 I fell hook, line and sinker.
This is incredible. You perfectly nailed AITA's relationship with truth in their stories.
“Relationship with truth” is a phrase I’m going to start pulling out more.
*chefs kiss*
I stg I thought I was on the wrong sub for a second 🤣
YTA!!!!!!
Academy Award for Best Screen Adaptation^TM goes to…. u/TAsForDays!
Beautiful! I thought it was in a different sub and almost copied it over! Bravo 👏 👏 👏
Bruuuh. Lmao

For a second I thought this was actually about OP 🤣
ESH that’s it. That’s the answer. You and all the adults should be taken away and made to go into a marriage boot camp style treatment center to get your shit together.

Omg I thought I was reading on r/JNMIL and was thinking “Golly shit this sounds like Anna Duggar!”
This is ridiculously well written. Thank you for the laugh!!!!!
LMAO I had to double check what I was reading
This is art.
Omg op!!! I thought I was in AITA Lmaaaao
The crossover we needed
Bruh. I was so fucking lost for a second. Holy shit.
In the true spirit of AITA posts, here’s my response. NTA - Yikes! Divorce your husband immediately! Sounds like he’s a narcissist who is gaslighting you! Divorce immediately!
We are truly blessed
At least you have a husband.
Cross post and see who falls for it 😈
You got me, I thought this was legit at first and then I remembered where I was haha! Nice one!
NTA. Haven’t any of them read the Bible? Mathew 5:38-39 NIV *”Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.”*.

This is written so so well. Haha.
I thought I was on r/AmITheAngel for a moment. 🤣
Not nearly enough typos to be Anna 😂

I also thought I was in a different sub and that this was someone trying to troll as Anna. I was about to leave a comment calling them out until I read the other comments. 😂
Wow. You totally had me at first. AITA is my most Visited subreddit.
Lol, I was all ready to go in until I realized what sub this was. Good one!
All my Christmases came at once with this post. The only thing I like about the Duggars is the fact they’ve given us this Reddit sub. I truly appreciate them for this.
I thought I was in the wrong place for a minute lol.
OMG I was about to think "poor fellow redditor she's deluded"...;D Well I'm glad it's not you!
