Story 1: Protein powders in excess can ABSOLUTELY be a form of poison! As protein powders aren't regulated, many have been found to also contain heavy metals which can cause cancers like leukemia. Since the roommate didn't INTEND harm exactly, I'm not sure even if it was the cause that OP could take legal action against her, but I'm happy she's no longer living with that roommate! Hopefully it wasn't the smoothies & OP can feel like her bad roommate experience wasn't traumatic, but rather life saving. 😥

Of course, this isn’t good, and she accidentally stumbled upon an allergy as well. In a way, it’s almost a good thing? Cuz OP caught the leukemia earlier than she would’ve otherwise. It’s like a blessing in disguise?? What a sad story, and I hope she gets better??? I also hope the roommate gets better cuz she’s not mentally sound.

As a mandatory reporter (someone who works in an occupation where you are around kids. ie teachers) any kid 14 or older can be charged in a juvenile court for child abuse. A 14 to 17 year old who reasonably harms a child under 14 enough to be considered abuse can get in trouble with youth based authority.

Story 2 it’s clear the grandmother is choosing favorites and its painfully obvious that the grandmother loves the SIL over the op and her family

That last story is horrifying. I hope that kid gets tried as an adult for his actions. That isn't okay. And remember everyone, nobody is born racist, they learned it somewhere.

Because she doesn't have a live in babysitter. I know this logic, and I hate my maternal grand-parents for using said 'logic', and at this point, I just don't care about having a relationship with them.

The last story, that father is truly a terrible human.

When I post anything personal, my family always thinks it’s a coded dig at them.

That last story is so sad. My heart breaks for that little girl. Being rejected by your own father has to be the worst thing that can happen. I hope the mother gives her so much extra love because I'm sure her little heart is broken. He is the worst kind of human. No contact for him.

Story 1: The ironic thing is that it was a douchebag move that actually helped saved OP's life, cause leukemia can be fatal if left untreated. What the roommate did was still inexcusable, not to mention petty (trying to make OP bulk up to appear unattractive), and yet, it was cause of her that discovered OP had leukemia and OP went home. Life really does work in mysterious ways, it seems. Story 2: Aha! As soon as the word "controlling" came out, I knew the core of the problem is the SIL, the one who benefitted from OP's free babysitting. That SIL is a narcissist and a manipulator, plain and simple, and I hate to say it, but I think the SIL had poisoned MIL's mind, simply over a petty grudge. My guess: MIL gets no access to her kids unless she does exactly what SIL wants. OP's husband is a keeper, but also a pushover, which I guess is why that SIL got so upset about him moving (again, due to SIL's control freak nature, a common trait of a narcissist). Yeah, moving a few states away is the first step to going NC, cause there is no way OP's family will ever be happy with that narcissist dictating everything. Story 3: If what Dabney implied is true, then OP should go nuclear and throw the freaking book at the ex. This kind of behavior is inexcusable, not to mention illogical, cause if the ex is indeed a bigot, why would he even get in bed and produce a child with OP in the first place? Even worse, the ex is outright mistreating his child by proxy, which I dare say is cowardly, but also inhuman, to twist a young mind against another like that. I hope we get an update to this story soon, cause I want to see that bigoted ex get his comeuppance.

The grandma day story sounds very much like my family's story.

I have a similar story to the first one. So my friend in highschool (we'll call him ethen) was meeting with us at a local McDonald's because we were all planning going to a convention together. He was taking a little longer than we thought. So we went outside and here he is stumbling to us. "Hey guys sorry im late I'm actually gunna go home." He was covered in bruises and he was holding his side. Turns out he was part of a hit and run. He stumbled all the way to us (1/2 mile) just to tell us because his phone broke in the hit. We called his parents and they took him straight to the hospital. He broke 3 ribs and had a bruised stomach. They ran some blood tests to make sure they was no internal bleeding. The doctors came out and rushed him to the main hospital. Turns out he had a rapid form of leukemia. The doctors say if they hadn't caught it, he would have been dead in a week. Me and my friends still ended up going to the convention (we were minors and room had already been paid for by ethen's mom) we all took 3 poster boards each and had everybody sign them like you would a cast. We gave them to him when we got back. The look on his face was priceless. To this day 12 years later, he is still cancer free.

That last story. Yeah get that child out of that situation. When OP had full custody. She seriously needs to have no contact with them.

Story #1, actually fellow Redditors (who told her to do health check) are her heroes! Not that manipulative roommate 🙄

Story 1: what sends me is the roommate didn’t even do anything bad 😂 putting protein powder in smoothies is very common. I do it, so does Smoothie King and a lot of other people. Plus if OP was skipping breakfast she probably actually needed the extra protein. She did something legitimately nice for OP hoping something bad would happen…she tried to kill her with kindness and ended up possibly saving her life 😂 this has the potential to be the start of a beautiful friendship

ok I'm like very paranoid about getting roommates

For a moment the first story sounded like her roommate was poisoning with thallium, the symptoms sounded exactly like thallium poisoning but omg good thing it wasn’t

With the last story, I was thinking that maybe it was also the Stepmum that's getting her son to bully OPs daughter and he's learned his racism from her. Or worse, it's both.

First story I would like to note that the placebo effect is really powerful. If you think youre being poisoned and have plausible reason to suspect it, even if you arent your body will react accordingly to your beliefs. Thank god it was just protein powder and not something worst like addictive drugs or Antifreeze. I wish OP nothing but the best in her time of healing from her Cancer

Despite what the OP of the first story says, her room was indeed poisoning her. The act of poisoning doesn't require actual poison, just the addition of something with the intent of affecting the target in ways they didn't consent to or know about. That roommate belongs in jail.

Story 1: Legally, the roommate WAS still poisoning her. Putting anything into something someone is ingesting without their knowledge is considered poisoning. Story 2: I’m glad they ditched. That family is awful. Story 3: Racism is 110% learned behavior. They’re definitely also abusing the kid.

So you have to divulge every single ingredient of a food dish to everyone that eats it? Thanksgiving is going to be boring tomorrow. Creatine is not poisonous even in grossly high doses and is a very common supplement to add to a smoothy. There is no way she would get convicted of poisoning

@@wingracer1614 The story said creatine OR protein powder. According to Harvard's medical school, there are possible risks with protein powders. When it comes to ingredients of food dishes that you serve people, there's a difference between dishes that have the ingredients that your guests can reasonably expect and you sneaking in something they couldn't expect.

Story 2: it's not about u working, sometimes grandparents just do this, like they will spend a lot of time with a certain grand kid but suddenly when the second one is here they r gonna shift the attention to the other one and keep it like that for the entire time, like even if the 2 grand kids came there at the same time- 2 nd one would get more priority. It's just plain old favouritism and it does suck (speaking from experience, I'm the grandkid)

Story 2 going over to Story 3: Did anyone else notice that rSlash forgot to say who the poster is like he's _known_ to do for just about _4 years_ because a _commenter_ said it'd split the video up more and not like he was reading several stories from the same person, with the exception of when he did so when doing an r/StoriesAboutKevin video, where all the stories where from the same Reddit user, or that one time he read a single, incredibly long, story, that Redditor found too long for one episode and split in two? With the main story as part one, including backstory stuff rSlash didn't include, and the updates being part 2. In all honesty, where rSlash overlooks important background information written by a Reddit User, Redditor adresses that very same information. If I've heard Redditor (Jack) read a story, I skip it when rSlash (Dabney) covers it and vice versa, but I also like to hear their different opinions about the same story. And the story that they both covered and I mentioned in my previous paragraph, rSlash covered it like 3 years ago, and Redditor covered it this year. The two could learn something from each other, and with one being American (rSlash/Dabney) and the other British (Redditor/Jack), if the two ever met and collabed, posting the video on both channels and it _skyrocketed_ both their channels with not just views, but pushed Dabney's subscriber count to over 2 mill, and Jack would _finally_ reach 1 mill. I just want Dabney to start doing face cam videos for some of the subreddits like Jack do, but maybe different subs to avoid being accused of copying, but crediting Jack for the inspiration of doing face cam vids from time to time on some subs (mainly because seeing their reaction to r/AskReddit questions being answered is a _hilarious_ thought!

Story 3 : if someone did that to my child ,the whole family will mysteriously go missing

Last story: the bio-dad is definitely garbage for his inaction and being content with his "real children", but it IS possible for a child (i.e. the half-brother) to acquire habits or beliefs from sources other than one's parents.

Yeah, I feel bad that he was basically his mother and sister's unpaid butler this whole time because noticed how despite the obvious favouritism and the fact that they were treating OP as this trashy woman, they were trying to keep her husband and make him turn on her and they were making half-assed attempts to save face not because they want to fix things and bond with OP's kids, but only to get her husband to stay. All he ever was to his mother and sister was their butler, he's the scapegoat of the family.

I feel like OP in the last story should flag this domestic abuse from the ex's stepson to whichever child protection body is in their area - the ex and his wife knows that his daughter is being abused physically, emotionally and psychologically, and have chosen to allow the behaviour, which in turn is its own abuse and neglect.

OMG that last story. please please please keep us informed if OP posts more updates. I need to know what happens and that step son needs to go to juvie, the sperm donor needs to have his rights stripped away and OP please be careful moving forward with who you date and lay with.

On one hand, holy shit she should NEVER have done that. You never add stuff to people's food/drinks without their knowledge. But like, on the other hand... OP was able to find out they got cancer a lot earlier than they would have without that incident So like, does an illegal action cancel out if it leads to it saving their life?

That first post took an even less desirable turn than it started out. I can't imagine what having leukemia must be like but I sincerely hope OP is able to pull through and bounce back. Good luck to the OP and I wish her well through all her treatments

Props to the husband for supporting his wife

That must not be in America since that lawsuit wouldn't go anywhere if it was.

I'm sorry, but WHY didn't op sue her?? She sure does belong in jail!!! I'd go scorch earth with this!!! I wouldn't let this go.. she was poisoning her!!!

My ex-father was not as bad as the dad in 3, but he definitely had the “my real kids”sentiment going on. I was excluded from almost everything and mocked for being a girl and not a boy. My half siblings are younger but I’m also disabled and he made it clear he didn’t want to deal with it. I still don’t regret skipping that man’s funeral.

Story 2: Obviously, op mother in law has a case of favoritism since childhood. Op kids are starting to notice the obvious mistreatment between them and the other kids which is just down right sad but is avoidable. If i was op I would tell my kids that grandma said she doesn't want to do the special days with them and that its ok because we can have our OWN family days like those parents that do yes days with their kids. It's ok to not be close with family especially if they mistreat you.

Which do you think is more likely, the son of this white lady for 15 years being taught to be racist by her or him learning that from a step father, who it takes time for kids to like, within 5 years? I sure as hell know which one I think since the step father loved OP at one point.

He's still allowing his child to be bullied and actually said she wasn't 'real family'. He may not be responsible for the boy's racism but he sure isn't being responsible in allowing it to happen

2nd and 3rd stories are insane AF! I cannot believe people like that exist.

Roommate: I was just giving you protein powder. 😮 To be fair I was using a bovine based protein powder, after regular use I started having a rash and I have no idea what about the power I was allergic to but it was the same reaction I have to cold medications which I know I’m allergic to.

I relate to the mother in law story. Mine picks other birthday parties instead of going to our sons. (They've missed 3 years in a row) My sister in law had a baby a now my son doesnt exist. None of my kids exist to them. In laws suck.
