I need to vent 😭
So I work with my mother in law for starters..we always have discussions about things that I wish I’d never get myself into because she’s like heavily into her Christian faith and anything outside of it she just doesn’t give the time of day. Everything that goes against her views she just thinks you’re wrong. I believe in god but I don’t religiously follow him. I know he’s done work in my life and he does good but I don’t need every conversation I have with her pertaining to him and everything. It’s not that it’s annoying it’s just her way of shoving it down my throat pretty much. Anyways, so I’m at my desk and we were talking about my hubby and our life and what not and we somehow got on the subject of cussing 🙄 and mind you me and my SO have a 2 1/2 year old girl and shes perfect. We occasionally cus in front of her just out of habit I grew up with my parents letting out some words here and there I grew up in a huge family where it was just happening. Most of people cuss either to be mean or just something that comes with a conversation. Well my MIL thinks that I’m a hypocrite for cussing and if our daughter cusses I shouldn’t punish her..because if I do it she should be able to..well she likes to always battle me on stupid shit because if it doesn’t go with how her way of living is then it’s automatically wrong. I’m sorry that me and my SO are ADULTS and yes we will cus occasionally it’s just a word. But hell yeah we will punish our child if she says something bad. No child needs to have those words coming out of their mouth. My MIL is just something else. She says it’s lazy talking and just means you have a small vocabulary if you use any bad words. This isn’t the only topic she’s battled me on because she thinks her way is the best way. Not everyone agrees with cussing which is perfectly fine but others don’t care because it’s just a word. She’s always trying to tell us what we should and shouldn’t do with our daughter thinking she will grow up not listening to us and what not. Mind you, this lady is so heavy in her religion she would pretty much harass our daughter if she was ever to become gay in the future and tell her its wrong. Like I’ve met Christians that love everyone no matter what will never judge but she’s so In her own world that anything out of it is wrong. Not saying our daughter will grow up and find out she’s gay or whatever but as her parents we would love her no matter what but someone blinded by religion would cast out their only blood granddaughter at the moment all because of who’d she love. I deal with this crazy lady all the time. I love her but her views on certain topics are just insane and really ridiculous. She loves gay people but she gags at the sight of seeing it on tv it in a movie and makes discussed gestures. She tries to tell us what’s best for our child when it’s not her place. You don’t agree with her she will literally walk away. She doesn’t accept that her son loves cars and since he was a teenager has always tried to manipulate him into not doing it. She’s just crazy!!
Sorry for the long vent I just feel I’m the only one with a crazy MIL
