I’m a 23 yo ftm and I know this probably sounds crazy but idk how to confront my boyfriend’s family about kissing my baby!! He has a 9yr old little sister that won’t stop holding his hand and kissing his face 😣 I think his mom and other sister kisses him too. Im currently living with his family as we are signing a lease soon. How do I approach the situation?

It’s so hard to be “mean and assertive “ with people you like and to that I say are you more worried about people thinking your mean MORE than your baby possibly getting sick? Obviously the answer to that is a hellll no! So tell them no more kissing the baby no more touching the baby unless I say it’s ok

Girl I get it ! It seems like you’re afraid of confrontation Because you live with his family and you want to be Respectful because that’s how you were raised . I think something that you could do is talk to your boyfriend about it and have Him talk to his family & stand on business after that .
Realistically I think you’ll grow to realize you’re going to be super protective over your baby 😅 and it’s either going to drive you crazy or you’re going to say something.
Until then tell your boyfriend to handle that

Something like. I appreciate you want to show love and affection for our bundle of joy, and we want you to do so but please consider options appropriate for this age, so instead of kissing him ...insert options you prefer.
Next step if necesary you can be much firmer
Soooo I talked to my bf and he got offended like I said I didn’t want his family touching our baby at all. Guess i gotta take matters into my own hands

We sent our families a huge list of rules for the baby that I designed & basically just said that if you can’t follow them, you can’t be around the baby
