I’m a preschool teacher & when decorating my classroom I told my friend “you’re not the one who has to be in here all day everyday” & she got mad. I was frustrated cause she was taking over the whole thing like she was in charge. AITA?

She probably got mad because she felt like she was helping/doing a favor, and then received criticism for giving her time to help you. I don’t think you’re in the wrong for wanting more control over the decoration process because you have a point, but it probably would have gone over better if you said something along the lines of “Thank you so much for your help! Would it be okay if I took the lead on the design since I’m going to be spending a lot of time here?”
