Hey just kinda want to rant. So my son is the first grandchild and great grandchild in my husbands family. Because of the boundaries i set with my husbands mom wanting to call her girlfriend of 2 years at the time grandma for my son. I told her that she will not be recognized as his grandmother, same as my husbands father’s girlfriend won’t be called grandma. I don’t know if these people will be permanent in my son’s life, so i rather keep biology at biology and prevent my son from
losing a “grandma”.
They didn’t like what i had to say, or that fact that i will raise my children religiously. Never once did i say we’d disrespect anyone, but they took it as disrespect. I was then told lots of shit by my sister in law and her mothers girlfriends daughter. I was told i was brainwashing my husband into my views, i was shat on for my religion, and called many things. After this they stopped talking to me, and we invited them to my son’s baptism but they lied they would be on vacation so they wouldn’t show up.
my sister in law is now pregnant and she only invited my husband and my son because she doesn’t want to be anywhere near me. I’ve seen her in public and have just been completely ignored, even when i was with my son.
my husbands mom doesn’t even want to refer to me by name
well now i’m jealous that my sister in laws baby will get more love and attention than my children, mind you im pregnant with our second child
and not once has his mother or sister checked up on me or the baby. Only congratulating my husband for being a father.
i’m sad and mad and i have so many emotions
but what affects me more is that my children won’t get that kind of love from my husbands family
because of his mother
and or myself.
i just don’t know what to feel anymore
