Regarding the comments on the first story: even if the school nurse had an Epi-pen, they'd still need to call an ambulance. It's a persistent and dangerous misconception that an Epi-pen is a substitute for a hospital visit. Epi-pens don't save your life, they preserve it long enough to get to a hospital. If you have a severe allergic reaction and use an Epi-pen, you will still die if you don't get further medical attention ASAP. An Epi-pen box/casing has four steps: remove the cap, stab until it clicks, hold for three seconds, and seek emergency medical attention.

[@misseselise3864]

yes!!!! epi-pens just delay the affects of an allergic reaction

[@gooseofspooks2500]

THIS!! I only heard about this recently but it's really important to know!

[@j59_faust]

yes! and additionally, i think everyone should educate themselves on how to properly use epipens, and ask your friends or family what they specifically need. for me personally, my epipens come in two and i need BOTH to live, and the medicine is administered in 10 seconds rather than 3. people really don’t get these things so i’m happy to see a comment like this

[@RamdomManeGenerator]

My thing about the first story is how in the heck did the OP manage to blend the peanut butter with water. Hearing this story makes me want to try it to see if it actually does blend simply by manually shaking it. Mind you, this is using the strength of an adult, not a second grader. Also, wouldn’t that change the color of the water and make it taste different? I don’t know, for some reason the first story annoyed me.

The only thing that makes me think the first one may be fake is not everyone has immediate reactions, they tend to be delayed, but then again maybe that's why they were able to get her to a hospital in time without her dying. It could be real or fake, but at the very least, peanut butter allergies don't instantly kill you at least, it's a building thing that gets worse over minutes and hours like venom.

[@j59_faust]

i wanted to put my two cents in the first story. i have grown up with severe food allergies and still have them to this day. this story isn’t uncommon- people genuinely do not understand the danger and severity of food allergies- especially these days when nut allergies are so joked and meme’d on. it has a real life effect on the way people view these allergies. my extended family doesn’t believe it, they don’t understand that i can die within a minute. kids and even friends would jokingly try to hand me food they KNEW i was allergic to. there are countless stories of waiters, fast food workers, and cooks not believing their own customers when we tell them we have an allergy! PLEASE. believe us. and understand that it is literally a life or death situation, and that we can be dead in 30 seconds. don’t underestimate these allergies. they are dangerous and shouldn’t be joked about. please be sure to ask you friends if they hahe allergies, and educate yourself on where their epipens are and how to use them. we won’t be able to do it ourselves. i can’t stress this enough. it is so scary, and stories like this, regardless of the age, makes me feel more justified in never accepting food from people, or never going out to new restaurants that aren’t trusted, or even being in the same room with someone eating my allergy. it’s scary

[@quincey5917]

seconding this. i have multiple severe food allergies, and so many people in my life refuse to take it seriously or think I’m lying/exaggerating. this story is absolutely believable in my experience.

[@NoOneReallySpecial]

Definitely this. I especially take it seriously cause our bus driver's daughter had a peanut allergy so bad that if you simply ate a peanut butter cup and then walked onto the bus, she would literally well up into hives and start wheezing, so I get it. I wish they'd educate people better on it. I, myself, just gained a partial allergy to blueberries and strawberries that was so bad to my body I gained shingles from the stress it caused on my body, so I completely get it and do my best to educate people (especially since I am a disabled/retired chef) despite not even having an allergy deadly enough to kill me. I hope you're ok and I can't believe your own family and friends would do that.

[@getyoteladz3536]

i remember my younger brother telling me about a kids movie he watched, i think peter rabbit, where they won by giving the 'bad guy' an allergic reaction to blueberries knowing he had that allergy and just geez why would you teach kids to do that as a silly thing to win a fight dated a girl with a peanut allergy and id help her check food packets to see if it had nuts - its so horrible when peoples allergies aren't believed

[@sickasfrik]

Unfortunately, the mom probably got paid in either meth or money that would be spent on meth to allow this monster to do what he did to her children. If he was a dealer, he likely would have been supplying her in exchange for being able to sell out of their house and also have access to her daughters. It's terrible. I grew up in a similar situation, but nowhere near as bad. I had also been hiding or dumping drugs and alcohol and it caused insane fights. It wasn't on purpose though. I did it because I was like 12 and I thought that if I just dump it, then they can't drink it and act funny again. I had no idea what I was actually doing, but when my mom found out, she tried to kill me. She punched me in the face and started choking me with both of her hands. I had actually just met her new boyfriend that night and he was laughing while she choked me. They were together almost 2 years (she was cheating on my step-dad with this man because he was in prison). That was only the beginning, but I feel incredibly lucky that my moms drug of choice was heroin instead of meth because she just sleeps a lot instead of doing what methheads do. I'm glad things never went that far, but with the amount of weird strange men that would come over, I'm surprised I wasn't ever violated by them. Luckily, all that was violated was my space when she would let strangers sleep in my bed and they would steal my underwear and anything I had that was worth anything. I had no private space or personal items because of this. I just hope that wherever these girls are now, they are doing alright. What I went through was life altering, I cannot imagine living through what they did.

as someone with a super severe peanut allergy, that first story and stuff like it happens way more than you think! in first grade some kid who didn't like me tried to wipe peanut butter all over me, and i have heard many many stories of food workers/other people not taking allergies seriously because they think people are just trying to do it for attention or are overreacting. we seriously need better education on allergies, it's a life or death situation for so many people and yet many think it's trivial

[@panqueque445]

That first story, peanut allergies can be really bad. If her allergy was as bad as OP said, then having a glob of peanut butter stuck to the bottom of a cup or bottle, even if it's not dissolved, it would be enough. Even if it's not water soluble, some particles do seep into the water.

Last story is horrific. I do find it very concerning how people will just say "the mom was more at fault" she was an evil disgusting POS herself and she is better off now, but its very disheartening how quick we are to dismiss p*dos and r*pists because "thats just how they are, there was no hope for him" I agree to an extent but it really makes me feel hopeless for humanity. That user corncob's reply is so strange to me, it removes the accountability off the POS. We are so desensitized by r*pists that we treat them like creatures that are inevitably to cross paths with victims. Its easier to view them as non-human monsters than face the reality that they are depraved humans and I feel this mentality is counterintuitive to fighting against them.

[@chaosofthegalaxy3094]

Yeah, like I get their point kind of but what a way to phrase it. We shouldn’t even judge who was worse because it doesn’t do anything, they’re both evil.

[@lindanimated]

Also we have to keep in mind that the mother was presumably fucked up on meth much of the time, since the new boyfriend got her hooked on it. So it's safe to say that she was, in a way, "a whole different person" as TII said in her voiceover. Who knows how she would have reacted to everything if she was sober. That's not me excusing her behaviour of being an enabler, but overall the boyfriend is definitely the one MOST at fault.

[@averyspecificdragon8780]

Fr. Her boyfriend was clearly incredibly manipulative and violent already, and then got her hooked on meth. She had some accountability in this, don't get me wrong, but monsters tend to try to multiply. She was unfortunately moldable enough to get sucked in.

My best friend had the unfortunate experience of having a child at 14 with a boy (now an adult) that we call "the POS". Thankfully, he is now in prison. I got a call from her a few years ago, letting me know that I would probably be hearing from someone who worked for the FBI. Sure enough, I got a call. Turns out, he was browsing the internet, and he found a "mother" who was interested in making some money from someone who wanted some "alone time" with her children, a six year old and an eight year old, I believe. He ended up crossing state lines and was quickly apprehended, as it had been a massive sting operation back in about 2021. My statements helped get him an additional 8 years, and the child is now safe and happy living full time with her mom. I just hope he gets some alone time with some of his fellow inmates, and ends up under the prison so we can all breathe a sigh of relief.

[@jmgajda8071]

OP in the last story was a child. She did what was necessary to protect herself and her sister -a position she should never have been forced into at such a young age. I do wish people would stop saying 'you never really get over childhood SA' as though now, on some level, you're just a fundamentally broken person. And I know that The Internet Investigator isn't trying to do this (I know she really cares about people, that's one of the many reasons she's so amazing! So I'm not criticizing her in any way), I just hear this so often that it's become a real point of contention for me. This is, I think, a very dangerous message, especially to anyone going through this right now. The truth is, with time, therapy, and antidepressants, you can get to a place where you are emotionally detached to the terrible things that happened to you as a child (and yes, I am talking from personal experience). Today I am a very happy, well-adjusted person with 4 beautiful daughters. I have an excellent psychiatrist and I still do a lot of self-reflection; and yes, from time-to-time, the things I was subjected to, do bother me or make me upset (especially when my daughters were the same age I was when these things happened) but these days it's pretty rare, and I almost never think about it. I also want to say I no longer have any issues with intimacy (though I did for a while). I just want to say, to anyone going through this right now, there is help out there, things absolutely DO get better, but only with therapy and time. That road, hard though it may be, is so incredibly worth it!

@@snailart14 It doesn't sound like she did drugs until he started handing them to her like candy...and then killed her despite him being the one to make her addicted in the first place. As for me, I'd care, but I would never take satisfaction in killing anyone, ESPECIALLY my own mother in such a situation. The story is realistic yet isn't real, but I don't care. The fact of the matter is you're just as bad if you kill someone and don't feel remorse. I come from an assimilated pacifist culture, which is partially where I inherit my views, but also killing is WRONG. Everyone should know that. The most stupid thing about the story is that the op called the cops after getting their mother killed but not anytime before that. Even if I don't believe it happened, it disgusts me that people in comments think killing is fine...

[@NoOneReallySpecial]

I mean, if you're lucky and in a good enough mindset to care about mental health. Lots of people don't get the meds and help they need. My own family is riddled with mental illness and whenever my mom tried to get help they just want her to repeat literally everything her uncle did to her and she would rather suffer alone or try opening up to me than get help cause she feels like they're being disgusting and I get it. The thing is though, you still will always carry your trauma with you. My mom hit 35 years of marriage and has us 3 daughters all grown up and married, yet had relapses like when she went through years of opioid addiction and it caused issues with us all. It doesn't always apply to all people, but most people still carry their trauma. And you can still carry it even without knowing it. Like how my medical trauma is literally engrained in my body enough to the point that it gets scared to do things because I've been injured so many times that my own body won't listen to me and move because it doesn't want to get hurt. I am glad you are doing well and got help and have a great life. It's cool you are positive about it (this coming from someone trying to get help right now when no one else in my family will) but just remember not everyone has the opportunity or the will or drive to be as positive as us, sadly.

I was a homeless heroin addict for 12 years. I have seen all kinds of addicts. But one thing I can tell you with absolute positivity is that drugs don't change who you are at the very core. They can't bring out what isn't already there. I can't think think of one addict I have ever run into or known that would have done that. She may have been a "wonderful mother" before her POS, but I can guarantee you that if there weren't drugs in the equation she still would have done the same for that POS. Drugs may make people lie to try to get money out of family/friends, steal from businesses for drug money, etc, but they don't turn you into a child predator who enjoys watching their own children get r@ped. You have to be a sick monster deep down in your very core for drugs to bring THAT out of you.

The camping story sounds more like the guy was trying to warn them of something to me. He (rather considerately IMO) rowed out to the middle of the lake where they could see he wasn't able to try anything while they packed up and left. My first thought is that maybe this was an area unsavoury people hang out and he was warning them to leave so nothing happened to them. It's also possible though that he had bad intentions and simply didn't realise there were so many people in the tent. Still creepy AF though 😅

Yeah I just shrugged at the camping story. probably just a dangerous area or some sort of animal known for attacking people nearby.

That last story-- that counted as self-defense, not murder. OP shouldn't feel bad at all. I'm glad they're safe and at peace. I hope those "parents" are getting what they deserve.

[@sarahr9894]

The last sounds a lot like the recent child death in the UK, this little kid named Alfie. His mom found a new bf who got them both hooked on drugs and the bf started physically abusing Alfie, starving him, locking him out of the house. The kid was 5 years old. The mom was apathetic and then even participated in the abuse. Then the kid was beat so hard he died, and at the time of his death he had over 50 separate injuries in various stages of healing. I have no doubt the OP and her sister could have died if left in that situation.

[@annie_xo]

The last story was heartbreaking. I can relate a little because my mom totally changed when she met her boyfriend, she just let him abuse me without doing anything and sometimes she joined in. It wasn’t as bad as in this story but I still have to live with the trauma. I’m really glad OP and her sister are doing good, I totally understand why she did what she did. The mom deserved it.

[@ratsalad8295]

Swede here! The second story with the creepy man is odd but i think that I might have an exploitation. If they were in sweden then yes, we have a "free to roam" law aka; you can walk in all forests and camp there as long as you are not desturbing the nature around you or camping too close to someones house. I think that the man might have been a Hunter. Hunting season for moose in sweden usually starts around september and even if its a bit too late to be camping in rural sweden around then, there is still a chance that the weather was still nice enough. The man might have been scoping out the area in hopes of finding a good place to hunt for moose and in fear of the OP and his friends scaring away/the moose knowing that people frequented the river, the Hunter told them too leave. Rural swedes are known for not having the best social skills and even if we have the "free to roam" law that he would definativaly have knewn of he might have resorted to being creepy to get them to leave "his" hunting grounds alone. Might be a huge stretch but just wanted to put in my word.

[@MsMoonDragoon]

or just being a loner he didn't have the best social skills so he did something vaguely creepy to get them to leave.

[@leelubell9080]

Moose are also really dangerous, so it may have even been more benevolent than that. Like maybe that’s an area moose (especially with calves) frequent and he didn’t want a tent full of teens to get trampled

[@SkrapMetal84]

one of the most darkest storys iv heard on reddit was the one where a girl drowned her sister though she was too young to understand, it obliterated her family and mental state.

[@thelivingdrawing2262]

I will say this about the last story, despite thinking it’s pretty fake. My mom was a Pain Pill addict who let other addicts live with us when I was a kid. She wouldn’t have let any of them lay a finger on us (she became an addict after my sister died). My mom is a decade clean.

[@bluetiger2468]

6:24 "We also didn't have a school nurse" From my experience with working in schools, I've never seen an elementary school with a school nurse. Usually, one of the staff members has a first aid license and gets paid more because at any moment of the school day they can be called to the office for a sick/injured kid. The main thing that feels off from that story is it's weird for a school to knowingly have a kid with allergies attending the school, but they don't have an epipen available. Tho, we don't know if it was an unorganized school. Depending on the school, maybe someone threw it away after it expired, but then forgot to replace it.

[@peridotharding7196]

Hi! Lilly’s ex! So we don’t usually have school nurses in Canada and that’s why the whole situation was so messed up. I was shocked hearing it too because I was a public school kid who knew our schools never had nurses but I figured Lilly’s school which was private would have had them, but they didn’t. Either way Lilly is okay now and working through the trauma of that event on her own.

[@nekovalley]

Anyone that blames the OP of the last story has never known what it’s like to be a scared child with no way out of a horrible situation. If I had had an out like that in my childhood, I also would have gladly taken it. OP saved herself and her sister and I hope she never, ever comes to regret it.

[@Chichi-hj3mg]

That last story was one of the most heartbreaking things I’ve ever listened to. I’m glad it had a happy ending, but those monsters deserve worse than death. I wonder if u’ve ever heard of the reddit post where the OP claims to have come from a different reality when he was like 6? Even if it’s just creative writing, it’s pretty unsettling to think about

[@amandaredd3057]

I personally find it difficult to swallow that this wretched "mother" was ever actually good. Drugs and persuasion can do a lot but her changes are extreme. I think she was probably fine before the POS and meth, but no great mother turns into a monster for any reason even that. Don't come at me it's just how I feel

[@enough2715]

Something might have snapped after her husbands death. But yes I have to agree, there had to have been something there long before she met POS. She could have been a very bare bones parent who seemed very loving in comparison to what she shifted into to OP who experienced this all at an extremely young age.

[@amandaredd3057]

@@enough2715 Maybe. It's just impossible for me to grasp. I had substance abuse issues in my late teens/early twenties and now at 41 I'm a mother. These are my experiences, I know, which I guess is why I can't understand. My kid is my world. I lost my husband 4 years ago and it hurt but I've not once been tempted to revert. It wasn't easy getting out of that shit either!

Yes it was settled in school by the staff once it had gotten to the peanut butter water incident because of how serious it became. Lilly is still struggling with trauma over it and rightfully isn’t going to forgive the bully.

[@peridotharding7196]

No the bully was being stupid not understanding Lilly had an allergy so she almost killed her with that stupid peanut butter water. Lilly almost died and has trauma from it happening. As far as I know they stopped being friends if they were at all after the bully tried to kill her. Lilly and I dated and we are still friends because our breakup was amicable.

[@dichromatism1681]

damn. that OP's mom wasn't just an enabler. she would also legally be considered a pedophile abuser alongside her boyfriend who killed her. she was facilitating child rape and child porn for 3 years. that is also considered a pedophile abuser by law. facilitation is completely different than just pretending it isn't happening, staying in ones bed at night, and enabling an abuser. she would have gotten near life or life sentence for what she did. OP was justified completely for getting his mom killed, b/c if she'd lied to the police they might have believed her on the grounds of her just being a mom and a meth addict who was too drugged to be aware. thank goodness she can't hurt anyone ever again. OP did the right thing, so glad he & his sister are safe and happier now.

[@MandalaBunnyhome]

That last story almost make me physically sick. I'm a parent and I can't even imagine how someone could do that, I'm not religious but I wish there was a hell for them to burn in. OP has nothing to feel bad about and I'm glad they were able to move on with their lives.

[@kujo4388]

The peanut allergy is very similar to something I did when I was in like 4th grade. I dared this one kid to eat dirt , he was apprehensive so I teased him, he did it after that and ended up in the hospital for 2 weeks…. I have no idea why his body reacted like that or what was in the dirt or even how I got away with it.

[@markuslouw3727]

Tetanus, probably. Or some kind of contaminant like piss or pesticide like rat poison. Lots of places will just scatter poison if there’s a pest problem, and it’ll linger for a long time.

4:00 No. Sorry, but OP was indefensible back then, and still is now. She's happy to let her friend _think her sole surviving parent tried to kill her_ than come clean, even today. That poor father likely has no relationship with his daughter, through no fault of his own. Shame on you for defending her.

[@jacobjohnston3983]

6:01 you absolutely still need an ambulance after using an epipen. The epipen doesn’t fully resolve the allergic reaction, it just stabilizes you long enough to get you to the hospital alive. You still need to go to the hospital to get yourself fully checked out if you have an allergic reaction like that.

[@gamzee3610]

The thing about EpiPens is that they don't stop the reaction, they just delay it until help can come. So even if the nurse had an EpiPen they'd still need an ambulance, it's just that the ambulance would have half an hour to get there instead of 5 minutes

[@hyliadreamer]

With that last story: OP's mother deserved far worse than what she got. It should have been slower, and far more painful, because she chose drugs and an inhuman monster over her own two children. I'm glad OP did what they did (using they/them, since it's never actually indicated that OP is female); it may have technically been wrong, but they had to do something for them and their kid sister, before things (somehow) became even more hellish for them both. I'm glad that OP instigated that beating, and I'm glad that both siblings are now living happy, fulfilled lives. Here's hoping that nobody who's familiar with the case happens to read that post, and puts two and two together.

I'm gonna be honest, I'm a little tired of the abusive, rapist, pedo men who get off the hook in stories like 3 when people put all the blame on the mother. Yes, she should have protected her kids, BUT HE SHOULDNT BE RAPING KIDS. That always ALWAYS seems to get lost in there. The man made a decision to rape kids and yet somehow its always, "the mom is worse for letting it happen." Yeah she sucks and deserved what she got but he was RAPING. KIDS. These responses always seem to assume that raping kids is like . . . A necessary evil. An inevitable thing. Like he's a scorpion who couldn't help but sting No, bitches, he's a full grown human with a full grown brain who chose to do that.

[@janerecluse4344]

I think it's because, according to many survivors, the betrayal hurts worse than the predation. Yeah, he shouldn't be raping kids. Any kids, anywhere, just on principle. But that's your mom. She's supposed to look out for *you*. Psychologists have noticed that CSA is more damaging the more you're supposed to be able to trust the perpetrator. Mom's boyfriend should of course be a decent human being like anyone else, but he's just some guy. This isn't just a weather pattern, this is an evil humans choose to do. But while it remains so dreadfully common, it remains a parent's job to defend against it, not to invite it in like a vampire.

I agree that the op in the last story probably only sped up the process, but frankly, if they hadn't have done it like that, op or the sister might have been in the room when POS finally lost it. At least they were safely removed from the situation. I can easily imagine a much worse ending

[@ca_lcium]

The last story made me so incredibly sad. I feel like I can't blame blame OP for her actions. She was a child and like she said, she didn't plan for her mother to die. I think this was an act of survival. I'm glad OP and her sister are doing okay.

[@orirune3079]

In the outdoorsman story, the looking for a zipper idea is a really good one. I'm trying to imagine myself feeling around for something at night while trying to remain quiet, and doing that motion is pretty similar to a caress. I'd bet that's the right answer as to why the man was doing that. He probably was feeling around, and did it to the OP's arm for a second or two before realizing he was touching a person, by which point the person had woken up and spoke, so the man had to come up with some excuse on the fly and ended up telling them to leave, maybe thinking they'd believe they were trespassing or something. Either way it worked because clearly they did leave.

[@yellow_quack]

That last story I don't cry often, but that broke the dam I really hope OP and her sister are doing well now, and I hope she feels absolutely no guilt for what happened. That wasn't just revenge, that was the way out, that was survival. CPS probably should've been called, given how long it took for the final outcome to happen, but they're also notoriously unreliable and those monsters didn't deserve a chance to talk their way out of it.

[@coffeecat086]

That child would’ve been around my sons age. The one who slept the peanut butter into the girls water. Seeing that she had just been learning about lying, and why it was not right, she most likely truly did believe her friend was lying to her. It doesn’t make it right at all, and it could’ve been a very badly and OP would’ve felt horrible had it done so, it sounds like they already do even though her friend survived. However, children honestly don’t understand a lot of the consequences of their actions at that age. It doesn’t make the fact that she hasn’t said anything right though My son, who is seven has flash lights at me not realizing that seizures can be deadly. Once he was told this, though he stopped doing that. His dad has epilepsy too, and his other son, Rory’s’ little brother, who is five, thinks it’s amusing because his dad reacts much the same way I do, and just stares off into space. He legit just doesn’t understand that it’s dangerous. As for Rory, he knows the big, shaky seizures are dangerous, but that’s really it. Still though, he should say something.

The first one is exactly why if you’re going to teach kids about lying, make sure to teach them to be responsible and don’t do things like fakeclaim. Teach them that if they think someone is lying, ignore it, ask them if they’re lying, or tell a trusted adult. Though many adults don’t even know this and accuse wheelchair users of “faking” when they don’t need to use their wheelchair 24/7. The adults in that persons life were to blame for what happened.
