Some information will be vague in case the person is on here
A family member went to a private scan today to find out the gender of their baby. I had a gut feeling it was a boy and she was so sure it was a girl and was hoping it was because she already has a boy. So she is told she is having a boy and has a breakdown and said in front of amother family member who went with her that she just wants to put the baby up for adoption. Her partner hasn't said anything about her saying this, but has made it known he doesn't care what the baby is he is just happy having a second child. I went through the system myself so this has really affected me and I just want to have a go at her for even thinking about putting a baby up for adoption just because of the gender, there isn't any other reason she said this just the gender. I haven't but would I be out of order saying to her that her saying that has upset me and it is so wrong to say about putting the baby up for adoption just based on the gender. I have lost all respect due to this but don't want to completely ruin our relationship for our children's sake because they have done nothing wrong and shouldn't have their relationship ruined because of what the family member has said
