What do you do?
Hi mamasšš» new mom here. What do yāall do when you get hate comments about being a mom/wife from your in laws? Or from people in general?
Long story:
I just had a situation with my grandmother-in-law. Sheās crazy in general and goes off on a lot of people for a lot of simple things. But I havenāt experienced her rage before, rage towards me specifically. I asked her in one sentence to stop calling my newborn child fat. She started calling him fat, fatty, lil fat boy, heās getting soo fat everyday and not always in the nicest ways. Iām not angry that she did I just wanted it to stopped. So I said I donāt want Ryan called fat. Chubby or chunky is better. Well in return I got called many things and basically told I was already a bad mom and wife. She has early on set dementia and mini strokes, as well as a pinched nerve in her brain. Sheās done the same thing to two of my sister in laws recently as well. That whole side of my husbands family keeps apologizing but I still feel bad about the situation. She basically said fuck yāall leave me alone Iām never going to talk to yāall again and what got to me was her saying sheās going to pray every damn day for that baby having to grow up in that situation (of me being an overprotective sensitive bad mom cause I asked her to stop calling him fatš). I feel guilty because I really wanted her to meet Ryan heās literally 2 months old. But I donāt feel guilty because it was one sentence, a simple request and she blew it way out of proportion. Iām used to being walked on by my family and sometimes his family I didnāt care before but now having a baby, I donāt want him to get walked on. That starts by laying down some rules and gaining respect. Thank you for reading my storyš„“š¬
