My SO and I lived with his parents when we first got together and then I got pregnant. They wouldn't stop smoking around me even after being asked not to so I hung out with them less and less until I moved in with my sister.

Now my baby is here and 6 weeks old. At about 2 weeks old, we went over to their place for Christmas and they smoked standing in the living room and blowing it out the front door door (which some smoke got back inside) with the baby in there. I was going to say something but his parents are very volatile people. I didn't want to start anything without my boyfriend being on the same page and knowing what I was thinking.

I got him into the kitchen to tell him about how I'm not comfortable with them smoking around our son and that I'm going to ask them to not smoke in the same room as him - which they have a smoking room downstairs so I don't understand why they didn't just use that. I also brought up the fact his mom just kissed our baby on his mouth and I'm definitely not okay with that. Especially with her being a smoker.

He didn't want to cause an uproar on Christmas because it might be the last one he gets with them. I told him I honestly didn't care because the health of my child - our child - should come first. He told me to just do whatever I wanted to do and he'd support me.

I went to talk to his mom when she went to her room looking for something. I asked if we could talk but she didn't really say anything and kept looking for whatever she was looking for. I told her how I don't want anyone kissing his mouth because of germs and she got totally defensive on how she didn't do it and whatever else. Her husband pushed past me to get in the room because I guess he didn't like me telling his wife all that. Very disrespectful. I was still healing from childbirth (I was swollen for an entire week after delivery & I still walked funny because it hurt) and him pushing me didn't feel the best. My boyfriend didn't do anything about that... So we packed up and left.

I didn't even get to the part about the smoking but why would I? Just to be told that it didn't happen and to be disrespected as a mother?

Days passed as they kept asking my boyfriend for us to come over. He always declined. I wasn't going to go over if they weren't going to respect me. If they don't want to respect me and my son in their house, I don't have to be there and they can come to us where they have to respect the rules of our house. But they only like being where they have a say so.

My SO thinks it'd just be easier to cut them out of our lives than talk to them about this. It's his family so I just go along with him. Though I told him we should try to talk and if it doesn't work then it's on them, not us and we can say we tried. But he didn't want to and I wasn't going to bring it up to them alone without my SO.

Almost a month went by until my SO brought it up with them (aka yesterday). He went over to their house to hang over (without us) and they asked why baby and I never come over and he finally told them. His dad called him a chicken shit for not telling them sooner. He got pissed off and told my SO to get out of his house to which he collected his things and went to walk out the front door when his dad stepped to him and tried to punch him (this is how his family is). My boyfriend dodged the punches and then his mom got in the middle of it and was freaking out about whatever. I guess she was saying how she never smoked in the same room as the baby... Can you can say crazy? Well she got out of the way and his dad pushed him and he went through the screen door. He didn't get hurt physically but he feels like he lost his family. He doesn't agree with half the things they do but they're still his family.

I guess his mom was blowing up his phone on his way home, texting him all sorts of nasty, mean shit. He just deleted it without really reading it. She flies off the handle a lot and he didn't care for her drama. Well he was in the shower and she sent him a text about how we need to get off their Netflix (we used it for a week until we paid for ours again - but hadn't been using theirs for over a month) or she'll report us. She said if we can't stand to be around them we can't use their stuff. First, report us to who? The cops? Last time I checked you can log out of all the devices your account is on and change your password. I don't think anyone will do anything since you gave your account information willingly to someone else. Again, this is her drama. Second, we don't use their shit because of this reason. They practically shoved their Netflix info at us so we could watch a show they liked when we told them we didn't pay for ours because of a new baby. I just deleted her text without showing it to my boyfriend. I honestly don't care if it was right or not. It was a unnecessary text and he's already hurting.

Well the biggest thing is he works for the same company as them. Sometimes they'll work together or ride together since they have a company vehicle and he doesn't. This means he won't be going to work tomorrow because he's not going to deal with their crap, and I don't blame him.

We've wanted to leave this town for a long time and I feel like this is really going to kick start the moving process.

I feel horrible that this all went down this way although I also feel like they all need a break from each other. They rely on him way too much. His mom called him all the time and he'd answer right away, all. the. time. It was honestly annoying. Even once when we were about to get it on, his mom called and he answered it. Like hello! What the hell? Maybe I'm being selfish but I'd like for him to be able to not take some calls from his mom and it be okay. It's like it was never okay for him not to answer. He'd always have this drawn out reason as to why he didn't answer her first call if he accidentally missed it while like taking a shit or taking care of his newborn. One day, after I got out of the ER from falling on my stomach while 36 weeks pregnant, she called him 4 times every two hours. We got home at 4am. Her first call was at 5am... & she knew we had been in the ER since 11pm the previous night. But whatever.

I just really needed to get this off my chest. For anyone that actually read this, is it wrong that I actually feel relived that we're going to get a break from his parents? I hate that it had to be on bad terms but I don't feel like we'd ever get a break on good terms. He'd always answer their every beck and call if it were that case. Ugh. I've never had to much drama before.
