If you had a baby and the father didn’t want to be apart of her life but his family did, would you allow them? Would you allow them to be apart of the baby’s life if they always made excuses for the way the baby’s father treats you and make up excuses for why he never wants to visit the baby? What about if they get upset with you for not giving the baby their last name even though the father hasn’t been involved and shows no interest in being involved. My daughters father doesn’t care about her or seeing her but his family wants to be apart of her life. However they have made me feel like shit constantly by acting like it’s my fault their son doesn’t see his daughter when I have tried and asked him several times to come see her and he always says he can’t or leaves me on read. (I have screenshots to prove it.) They harassed me for weeks to go get her name changed to theirs until I threatened to keep her away. They send him pictures of her and tells him everything I tell them regarding her appointments and how she’s doing overall when I’ve asked them not too. He shows zero interest in being a father and they tell him these things anyway. I don’t understand why he would need to have pictures of her or know stuff about her when he’s told other people that he still doesn’t think she’s his and that he doesn’t want anything to do with me or her. Again, I have screenshots from the person who told me these things that he’s said. I have never told them they couldn’t see her, I kept them updated during my pregnancy, and have let them see her 2-3 times a week since she’s been born. I’m just tired of them being mad at me for something their son has choose on his own. I’m tired of them trying to push me into things I don’t want. (They talked me into allowing him in the delivery room when I didn’t want him there and he was kicked out by a nurse for harassing me about a DNA test during labor). I’m tired of them trying to say I keep her away when I’ve tried so hard to keep him involved and he can’t be civil with me or even act like he cares about her. It’s not my job to make their son act like a dad. I’ve been sending them a picture of her everyday since she’s been born. I have them on facebook so they see everything I post. Another weird thing is that they live a block away and I always catch them driving past our house very slowly. I live on a side street and the way the roads are set up there is no reason they would need to pass our house unless they were coming to see my daughter. They are also acting like I don’t know what the hell Im doing when it comes to taking care of my daughter and it pisses me off too. I really want to just slowly distance myself from them and eventually drop them completely. I know it will be hard since they live so close to me but I’m tired of the shit. What would you guys do? Continue to allow them in her life or drop them? The father isn’t on her birth certificate or anything so it’s not like he has any rights, and they definitely don’t have any rights. I would hate to deny my daughter the privilege of knowing her family, but damn do they fuck with my emotional health.
