OKOP okay op okay storytime ok storytime
The "Hallelujah" that plays every time they say the name "Isaac" is about to put me in the hospital, I am laughing so hard, I am genuinely wheezing
The MIL is so Delulu! The husband is a King of Kings 🤴 🙌
Right?! Made me laugh everytime! Gold!
If you have to worry about "drama" at your wedding, you invited the wrong people
Ikr. And I immediately went the same as the commenter, are you going to not invite your brother to anything? He is your family, thr in laws have to suck it up or beat it
At that point why have the wedding at all? Last thing I want is be around homophobic people tbh. Just because you don’t invite your brother doesn’t mean they stop talking like that. It be so fucking draining at the wedding with those people.
I was raised by a trans woman and am so so proud to call her mom. I have watched the vitriol thrown at her for 30+ years and she always meets it with love, smiles, and light. She hasn't found her forever person due to the issues with my bio, but I know one day she will find the right one. Everyone deserves love. I hope she will find a partner as ride or die for her as the first OP. 🙏
A for the second story, no one should ever have to go back in the closet to appease others.
Agreed I honestly don't think they should have done this story
@@charlottehenthorn I completely disagree. I think it's very important to show WHAT bigotry actually looks like. That dude was told by so many people that he was making the wrong choice and how to fix it, and instead of listening he chose again to do what he wanted without regard to his brother's feelings. It is important for people to understand that most homophobia looks like THIS, rather than overt bible thumping hate crimes. People get away with plausible deniability homophobia because they can justify it to themselves.
Agreed also found it weird OP didn't name him their brother in law. Which is what your brothers husband is. Just seems like a weird dynamic
2nd story. By not inviting brother's husband. He is saying come celebrate my wedding and spouse but I don't care about yours. Yuck
Didn't they read a story a few days ago about a brother who sent a text that ruined the wedding? I wonder if this is that brother! 👀
Here's the thing. They're assuming the fiances family is going to make a scene. They don't have to like it, but can't you have a conversation with them, letting them know there will be gay couple as the wedding and it's important they be civil for a few hours? Why punish the brother and his husband? Just tell the family that everyone should behave and be civil towards each other, it they can't, then don't come. If they make a scene, have them leave (maybe hire security). There was zero chance of that conversation going well with OP's brother. What a STUPID decision from OP.
I'm still stuck on the + 1's need approval first.
People should never have to bend to make bigots more comfortable in any situation.
@jenniferverge6208 I absolutely cannot understand how your comment would be hard for people to understand, but because we have stories like this so often it's apparently foreign.
Story 2: you chose your family. You can choose to go no contact with violent family members.
I cut contact with my cousin who called my sister’s friend a derogatory name because she’s Japanese. No drama at my wedding if the AH’s can’t go.
MIL in the 1st story thinking she can decide the baby's name and who will be present for the birth is truly bizarre. There's something extremely wrong with that woman. I can see them needing a restraining order in the future because if she's already crossing boundries that extreme, I'm incredibly worried that there's nothing this woman won't do. She seems to be the type to kidnap or even breastfeed the child... you know, the scary AF type. Protect that child at all costs from that woman!
I hear these stories and almost can't believe they are real. I might have to start writing a sitcom.
2nd story - Not inviting the brother's husband is punishing the victim of the homophobia instead of holding the people committing it accountable for their own behavior. If that's okay with you, then by all means, but you should be willing to stand up for your brother if you actually care about him. The correct answer is to remove anyone who is acting inappropriately from the event if they cannot behave like adults, not giving in to the bullying.
I'm 100% under the belief the in-laws are paying for the wedding. That's why this guy's having such "difficulty"
You don't have an "A ha!" moment in the comments only to go right back & do a 180 & basically insult your brother & his husband.
@TwiggyHetfield27 OPs brother either always found his brother's relationship uncomfortable and thus saw nothing really wrong with excluding him when prompted, or worse and he actually always agreed with the inlaws view. That or he is just 100% whipped.
Are you gaslamping me again 😂
uses that from now on😂
42:17 Yeah my husband use to volunteer me for things when we dated and I shut that down.
I would be stuck doing meals for church or working the sound system while he did other things. Then another time where he told a coworker I would babysit his kids for extra money.
I told him that I didn’t appreciate being pawned off for free labor or for complete strangers for him to profit.
I tore him a new one and he quickly realized that he was being a STINKY man.
He stopped doing it and now he asks me how I feel about situations and I tell him what I’m comfortable with.
Second story, OP's fiance needs to talk to her family and set boundaries and then talk to the brother and tell them about the fiance's family and ask how he wants to proceed. Lot's of communication
If my husband is not welcomed to an event, I am not welcome either.
I love Sophia so much, I’m so glad she joined the show. Worm Queen forever!!
As a trans person, i love the first story's husband. Every trans person should have a loving partner like that.
Yes!
The first person doesn't sound trans, just troubled. They don't experience dysphoria. But MIL is a giant AH.
I’m in agreement with you I’m just going to add that everyone deserves a partner so loving. Unless that person is a murder or child predator.
I am not trans personally but I have seen some friends struggle with their transition and how bigoted people can be. This story had me in tears. I can never start to comprehend how someone can have so much hate for another human. Because at the end, black or white, straight or gay, trans or cis, we are all human.
Agreed! Especially as minorities are so much more likely to be abused. I have a trans friend rn who doesnt realise her gf is a full narcissist (diagnosed but refuses it entirely) and would completely cut anyone off who would suggest that she's being used and manipulted into basically being a slave. 😢
I wish more men watched this podcaste. You guys are doing the lords work by unpacking shit. Shout out to Riley for the edits
We're around. I think we just lurk though 😂
They are going to be the best husbands, but they will probably overthink everything.
53:41 grandma: I can parent better, you just suck! Grandma the next day: I SURRENDER. Granny fked around and found out
2nd story: He had an open note exam... and failed. No words man
2nd story: elope, and tell the parents that it is because you don't need a-hole drama at your wedding.
2nd story: OP can decide not to invite his brother-in-law to his wedding, but he will have to deal with the fact that his brother probably won't be at his wedding either. I think it will show his brother that he isn't supportive of his brother and brother-in-law. And he may be destroying his relationship with his brother. OP is an idiot. Even after all the comments, OP still did the opposite of what all the commenters advised. Of course OP's fiancée is okay with how OP dealt with it. She's probably as bigoted as the rest of her family.
13:00 OPs husband is amazing. That family needs to realize that the parents have the final say and grandparents rights won’t exist in this scenario.
Story 2: By inviting the homophobes over your brother and his husband ….. is just another instance of the world acting to make them comfortable and expecting people who are gay ‘not to cause a fuss’
It's punishing the victims instead of the bullies to "keep the peace", as per usual
I bet it doesn’t click with the OP bc they don’t experience the pain of being affected by the homophobia. They are usually content bc they don’t truly understand.
Birth isn't a spectator sport seems to fit the first story.
OP loves his brother but he is embarrass of him. 😢
While I can see why it could come off that way I get the impression that he’s probably closer to a people pleaser than anything. He wants to find the easiest way to make his wedding day go smoothly and while also wanting to set up life with his future in laws as easy as possible. Unfortunately so many people who love each other get divorced not necessarily because of their relationship and personal differences but issues and differences involved each others family’s. It’s a shitty situation and to be honest it’s something his future wife should have spoke to her parents about.
My parents wouldn’t of but if they were the kind of asshholes that hated a stranger for something as silly as how someone chooses to live their life especially when those choices don’t hurt other people I would have talked to them and said look we are having a wedding and I want everyone to go and to have a happy time. I don’t want to hear anything outrageous or even remotely negative on or about anything involving my wedding or I will lose my freaking mind. Again it’s not something I would need to do but it’s something I would have already for seen as a possible issue and so I would have wanted to get it sorted out as early as possible.
Ultimately I obviously feel bad for the brother and his husband cause it’s a shit position to be in but I also feel bad for op because weddings and everything involving them are already so stressful on top of whatever else is going on in day to day life so honestly it’s not even something people should have to deal with at all.
My husband has family members that don’t always get along with my family members…now this is something that has slowly transpired over the years after our wedding had already happened. Oddly enough these people who aren’t fond of each other fail to see just how similar they are but it is what it is. The only family events that we really have to worry about combining our family together our birthday party’s which is like 3 times a year if that and because everyone’s lives are so busy my husband and I don’t even always have a big family birthday party for ourselves every year and if we don’t not everyone is always available to come. So yearly everyone gets together for our daughter birthday party and that’s about it. They might see each other in passing since we all live near by but there really isn’t a lot of family events so now I’m questioning if I’m supposed to be having more like family parties and stuff like that…. I hope all my blabbering has made sense. I apologize in advance if for some reason I haven’t
@@Raraking4796 if he a ppl pleaser their are two sides to please. He is choosing the wrong side. He did said in a relevant comment that he maybe
In the second story, he is rewarding the bigotry. They are the ones with the issue. Why should the brother be punished? Op is condoning their actions by not standing up. For safety, I would invite everyone, get security, and have anyone starting anything hateful to be escorted out. Just make sure your brother and his husband are aware so they can keep their guard up or not attend. Better yet elope and bring your brother and BIL as the witnesses. Ok, I watched to the end of that story, apparently I agree with the guys 😂
I’ve seen a lot of people who have stopped letting their kids have screen time and it seems to be really beneficial especially for sibling relationships
“Reefer but it’s digital” in that voice was quite honestly the funniest bit 😂
Story 2: Yeah OP is a dumbass. I’d be surprised if his brother ever speaks to him again. That relationship is destroyed.
Riley was spot on regarding not inviting the brothers husband. There should have been nothing else said. He said it all. Chef's Kiss.
Omg the new aesthetic of the channel is really pretty 😍😍❤️❤️
I love the lemon grab "Unacceptabllllllllllllllllle" 🤣
37:58 every freaking time they swap out John's gotta be like 'wtf?' 😂 ahh classic! Never gets old.
The dads have always slayed
Weaponised incompetence is not only used by men.
Divorce!! That wife and her incompetent brother and his gf deserve a divorce.
Admittedly I thought I was subscribed for months and wasn't because your videos are always in my recommended. So, point taken lol... I of course subscribed.
Lol sam and Sophia switching is trippy when on the phone app listening
Riley being mad that john didn't call him to help with the couch is great. I cannot explain why i feel this way about it though. 😂
2nd story, hire security and sue anyone who starts a ruckus.
“THE REEFER BUT ITS DIGITAL” KILLED ME 🤣🤣🤣🤣
My sister has 2 boys-- Isaac and Leo!!
In the second story its clear on which side op and their fiance are siding. Or better what are their principles. They are pretending to care but in reality they don't really care about the brother.
Are you gaslamping me made me cackle🤣
At first i thought "yes" but then hearing the story i was like "op is nta, because Helen bit off more than she could chew and now hates her decision" 😂🤣
Storytime: after my parents divorced me and my siblings and mom, moved from Dallas to Keller. And i started a whole new school and there was this kid, Jack (not real name) he was the school delinquent for my class at least. This is like 6th grade and he was constantly going to disciplinary school in and out of juvie and then one day he up and vanished. Turned out his parents didn't know how to handle him so they turned him over to his grandparents and then in highschool some years later he was sent back and the process went over again. Don't know what happened to him after graduation or if he even did graduate. But he was sticking to his guns as being a "badass" and in the 6th grade he thought I was the weirdest kid ever and i didn't care. I was a goody two shoes as everyone put it. But then again if you had a strict single mother like i did, you'd be scared to get in trouble too. End of storytime. Getting Tamera help for her behavior problems might just help her and you out instead of letting her act how she is doing already. I also heard nasty rumors about Jack's parents that should not be shared but i don't know if that's true or not because he was sent to his grandparents by someone so don't know the details about that.
The fiancee's family should be warned of the situation, and need to be clearly told they will be kicked out if they can't be nice for a day.
34:41 - Nope Nope Nope. But my first wedding was going to be at a Roman Catholic Church. I went to the priest and asked if my gay brother and his partner were welcome, also if my gay brother was welcomed to take part in communion as he was raised Roman Catholic. My brother was not allowed. I would not have my wedding in that church. Luckily the priest said that my brother and his partner were both made from God and were welcome and my brother welcome to participate in communion. I didn’t give a crap about what my fiancé of the family thought of my gay brother. he was my brother. He would be there with his partner who I love dearly.
I feel like you guys read this story from the BROTHER'S perspective. In the end the brother stayed home with his husband, and parents texted him from the wedding asking why he wasn't there, and it blew up the wedding.
I think it's different because in the other story the brother was chill about it while here they are mad with op
1:50 hubby passes the vibe check
Story 2: OP needs to have a heart to heart with their fiance and ask her to either not invite the bigoted family or ask her to tell them to behave. It's unfair to ask the brother and brother's husband. But honestly, OP is set on taking the easy way out. I feel bad for OP's brother. If I was OP's fiance, I would tell my parents they need to behave or I would not want them there.
Ome last thing: the fiance is NOT as reformed as he makes it sound. That woman preferred to appease her bigoted family rather than have her future husband have his brother in law there. OP is the AH all the way for the way he handled all of it.
Ya I hate when people act supportive but think they can take a “neutral” stance, you cannot be neutral while supporting the homophobes it doesn’t matter what your personal opinion is when you surround yourself with bad people and support those people opinions. My sister is trans and my parents or my partners parents would be disinvited in a heartbeat if anyone wanted to say anything bad about her
"We can't not invite her parents"
Yeaaa they're 100% paying for the wedding. If you're having difficulty choosing your brother & his husband over a bunch of homophobes there's a HIGH chance those homophobes are footing the wedding bill. The fiancé telling him he "did the right thing" to me, is confirmation of that. And to me his fiancé didn't "grow away" from them. If she did she'd be barely speaking with them.
If you've agreed to help someone move, you walk away if they're not packed when you arrive.
So agree! If you can’t get your belongings packed before the people you asked to help you move arrive, not going to get any better!
Wedding story: So we reward the bad people by excluding your innocent brother? That makes total sense.
40:00 lemongrab scared the shit outta me and my headphones 😂😂
2nd story : Fiance needs to tell him family to hide THEIR issues in the closet fornthe wedding. Not inviting your brother's husband is hella rude, shows that you'd prefer to support homophobes and be in their presence and that he's not "really" part of your family as he can be "forgotten" for such a big event. EVERYONE knows her brother is a gay man with a husband, if they can't deal with that for one day, how can you marry into this family ??
Wait, was that Riley eating in the microphone? He’s always yelling at the others for it and now he’s breaking his own rules! 🤣🤣🤣
As a woman who got married last year and refused to invite either my own mother OR step mother, I can happily say having zero tension and drama from that shit on my wedding day had us on cloud nine. Protect your peace. Screw what you are "supposed" to do. Do not invite those who will not just be happy for you that day!
Our wedding day was absolutely amazing, and I am so happy with the choices we made.
MY CHOSEN NAMES LEO SO WHEN THEY SAID “LEOS A GOOD NAME” I GOT SO HAPPY
Da baby is killing me 😂😭
Boundaries needed to be cemented with that first MIL. If not now then when? After the baby comes and then she tries to pull some stunt to try to take their baby away because they aren't raising the child through her entitled eyes? The fact she insists on calling the child ISAAC regardless of what they chose of the baby is a big ole red flag. Then his family broke into their home? WTF??? Big time no contact. There is no love their...just a weird sort of entitlement. Like I said, the next thing that would have gone down would be the family or mother in law to be trying to take the child away from them. Its good that they nip that situation in the bud now. They don''t need hate like that!
2nd story. Not hard. Easy. My invites go out to all family with the prominent statement that "the wedding will include all kinds of families including LGBTQ, and if you cannot leave your personal opinions on such families at home, this invitation becomes invalid. Thank you for your understanding of our preference for a harmonious wedding day."
It's absurd that you would even need that disclaimer for grown adults at an adult event. I cannot fathom a situation where I would ever start that kind of drama at any kind of event, especially a family member's wedding! If you cannot keep your mouth shut and mind your manners for a few hours for your daughter's wedding, then I don't know what to tell you other than get out.
42:00 he shouldve left when they werent ready and didnt have the uhaul
Leo is my first son’s name! It was my great grandfathers name as well.
This is why I don't understand why the MIL is so against the name. It's not an unusual name. She just got it into her head that this baby's name is Isaac for some reason, and it's kind of gotten to a borderline crazy place.
2nd story: Husband to be needs to talk to his parents. Let them know his wife to be, brother is gay and him and his partner will be at the wedding. If they cause a scene, they will be kicked out. They need to keep their prejudices to themselves and act civilly on your day.
2nd story. Sounds like the other side of an OKOP story where it turned out the man getting married had become conservative like his fiance and her wife's family. In that story his family ended up disowning him.
I read my mother in law pissed on me and omg.. I'm a delirious mom ... pls forgive me
😂
She does sound like the sort who would assert dominance like that.
Those parents are wrong!!! How in the hell do you decided it is okay to change a babies names. It is not your child. Just because you're the grandparent doesn't give you the right to be an ass. Dead names stay dead. If you do not accept it then that is your choice. And that choice needs you to stay away. James is feeling the pain all around. He lives his partner and loves his family. They put him in a rough spot. I am.glad he did what he did and has rolled on. You did nothing!!!! Stay strong and continue to love your little family
2nd story - a Sam comment I missed on first listen that was chilling on repeat watch: he can bring his husband as his friend. Reinventing the closet and single handedly taking us back to the 90s and earlier, when we couldnt be with our partners openly to protect the fragile comfort of cishets everywhere. This is something Sam should sit with and think about as it is an incredibly harmful mentality to have towards queer people.
What do you wanna bet in story 2 the fiance convinced him to ask his brother that. She's probably controlling the situation because she doesn't actually like/want the brother there.
You can still keep the uturus after having undergone top and bottom surgery. You can also carry a baby after having been on hormone therapy.
The issue is fertility and ovaries but it can happen.
@@draconicfeline6177 Egg freezing is great, and people can use egg donors too. Unfortunately in the UK egg freezing is capped at a 10 year maximum holding limit.
Thank you Sam for saying "our daily bread". I had to as well.
2nd story: I've never heard of a bigger fumble. Wtaf.... Why even ask if you weren't going to take the advice????
John is allergic to horses, I can relate since, while I am not allergic to the horse itself, I am allergic to Timothy Hay and horses eat hay and sometimes get brushed with hay by their owners, so I am consequently allergic to the horses in the same why some people might be allergic to cat saliva, which cats are covered in as a result of "bathing" themselves.
12:51 crazy that the baby name was the end of it all, the family could have had their grandson but noooooo...
Nooooo they wanted an Uncle Ike, Not Uncle Leo. 😂😂😂
Something in husband's head snapped at that part for sure 😭
Leo is not even that crazy of a name. I've heard drama over very unique names before, but Leo is a perfectly normal name, I really don't get it.
@@alias-majik it's about controll, the MIL wants to control her son and she wants him to prioritize her over OP which is insane of course but it's her thoughts. I don't even think the name Isaac has any meaning to her, she just wants the control
I can't remember what channel but I swear I watched an aita from the 2nd story ops brother. In that one, the grooms wife's family was super homophobic, brother was asked if hubby could stay home, he said he didn't want to go cos of social anxiety. He thought the groom told their parents he wasn't coming, but day of they called asking where he was. He told them where he was and why, and they got PISSED. They confronted the groom and wife's family at the reception and a HUGE fight broke out cos wifes family was disgusting. Can't remember much because it was all just crazy and I'm exhausted, but look for it, it's a good one. Possibly on two hot takes. Possibly smoshpit
Also possibly the potato queen Charlotte dobre
So proud of my trans wife 🎉❤ queer folks we see you we love you 🎉
I think its telling that the Wedding OP says “Brothers Husband” and not “Brother-in-Law”
I have moved 26 times in my adult life(I'm a veteran) and if I ever asked my friends to help me move, EVERYTHING in the house would be packed and staged, I always rented a U-Haul with a dolly plus I had a case of water so everyone stayed hydrated, and when we got done, we had pizza and beer as a thank you. If I showed up to someone's house to help them move, everything better be packed cuz I'm not helping to pack their personal stuff. Jeez what a cluster.
Grandparents have no rights. The parents have every right to withhold their child from their parents if they are not a good influence in any way!!! Yuck
Regarding the brother’s husband story, my opinion is pretty simple. OP can’t be tolerant of his in laws’ intolerance and still be supportive of his brother. I also noticed that every time the husband was mentioned, he was “brother’s husband” instead of “brother in law.” I think OP subconsciously revealed early that he’s nowhere near as supportive as he thinks he is.
I hate how people pretend you can be neutral about homophobia. If you uninvited someone because of their sexuality YOU ARE HOMOPHOBIC. Because you are actively supporting homophobic people and choosing to surround yourself with bad people just because you don’t personally believe bad things doesn’t really matter when you’re supporting the people who do.
Don’t forget in the second story. The father will be walking the bride down the aisle, so she has to invite them. But I think it’s important to let the homophobes know they will be escorted out if they start crap!
It is not unreasonable to expect adults to act like adults at an event like this. If they cannot, they should be removed. I don't know why OP and fiance are so afraid of this idea.
The future inlaws should be kept from wedding since they can't cope with reality, not the gay brother & husband.
The brother at the wedding story, the op is the AH, its HIS brother, thats close family and the BIL should be there. If his fiancé has rude hurtful vocal homophobes those people should not be invited. The brother is gay if his husband comes or not. He is still gay. He is close family as is the BIL, crack the whip and enforce no bigotry at the wedding. Time to cut off certain people. For OP to be entertaining this, for it to be even a question shows OP is fine with being biased against his own brother and is starting to have the fiance’s family values.
I feel like they’re leaving out some important things in the 2nd one. Why do they have to invite the fiancé’s parents? Are they putting up money? I think there’s stuff like that swirling around that’s being glossed over.
Like if they’re giving a lot of money for example, yeah, they can f right off, but that hugely changes the wedding! Yeah, the OP needs to double down on support for their brother. If these people can’t get it together, they can have a good night, byeeee!
Second story, tell the parents to shut the f off or they are kicked out. Or never get to see their future grandchildren if they can't behave. This is not a one time situation. They will have to see the brother and the husband in future. Not inviting the husband's will not solve anything
You shouldn't have to check the brother, talk to the inlaws
A family that is homophobic isn't worth keeping in your life. The couple should be invited not thst toxic family.
i was looking for yt channel besides from charlotte then found this.. now i cant stop watching this past weeks haha
Love it!!
The wedding story: the potential for a scene to happen if the homophobic family starts one, in on the homophobes. They would be responsible for ruining the wedding. Not the brother. They should be uninvited if they can't behave civilly for 1 day. For their family member (op's fiancee).
Story 2: The fiance is 100% still homophobic and OP willingly marries into a family of bigots. He should have asked the fiance how she would feel about it, if the brother will ask that OP leaves her at home for every family events they celebrate because they feel unwell having someone from that background there. Wonder if she would still feel like exclusion is the right choice when she is the one being excluded.
The second story really isn't that hard. They can choose to support homophobia and take part in being homophobic, or they can just warn her parents and say "this is my family and like we respect your beliefs you will respect their relationship" they don't have to agree with the relationship they just have to not cause a scene. If they can't agree to that then they shouldn't be invited, parents or not.
👀 Wait A Minute- Something has disturbed the force 🗿 Only Riley's appearance has done this before, But what has changed now? 🤔 Who is the cause?
The wedding thing, get eloped.
I’m triggered by the “old jokes” aimed at John. Bk in the day, my friends used call ME old when I was 25 (I wish now!) + they were 21 + I got it. But Sam is the same age as John, give or take. What’s up w/that??
Every time I see John’s face I remb + feel that stab of annoyance for him. Hey, at least he’s got a FULL head of glorious blonde hair. John, don’t listen, you’re SO young. 🧡😊
The second story sounds a lot like the other side of the story from the point of view of the gay guy who didn't go to his brother's wedding and caused a massive rift in the family. I think it was "AITA for not going to my brother's wedding and now my family is choosing sides" or something? I think y'all did a clip of it, and I saw it on Facebook, but I don't remember the actual title. I just remember it sounded like the other side of this story.
33:14 Idk if the fiancé is as different from the parents (the future in laws) as OP thinks. Idk how OP said they get it and heard all the comments and then did what they did in the update? How did they you get from those comments to that?
srry but i just watched a video where John and Sam thought it was too much for parents to disinherit their son for turning a blind eye to his in-laws harassing his own brother for being gay...but are now saying "stick to your values"/"punish the people who are bad" when it comes to this story... so im just wondering what the difference is...
cause the in-laws in the other story stalked the gay brother AND his boyfriend...and if you dont cut someone off and stick to your values then.. but draw the line at a wedding invite?
Story 2: Sounds like the fiance isn't as outside the homophobia as OP stated...and, maybe OP is more okay with that than they want us to think.
Therapy is medical help and I think that’s exactly what they were suggesting
First story: they didn’t threaten the grandma, the made a request and set a boundary.
Request: When we say no, accept the no. Baby won’t be named Isaac. MIL will not be in delivery room.
Boundary: if you do not respect our requests, we will not allow you to be in the baby’s life.
We can make all the requests we want of people, but ultimately don’t have control over how they behave. A true boundary is your response to people when they do not respect your requests.
This MIL needs some consequences for her lack of respect. Set the boundaries and follow through.
Is it new or have a been missing the subliminal images added to this videos? Am i crazy? Hahaha btw love your show
second story, OP should invite the brother and his husband and OP's fiance's family needs to mind their own damn business. They aren't there to judge the guests, they're there to see 2 people get married. If they wanna be homophobic that's on them but they can suck it up to see their family member get married.
I don't like when people say bad behaviour and being rebelious is a tenager phase or expected behaviour. This sets to expect the worst or low from a tenager because they can't do better and set kids who actually needs opportunities to have no trust because they are young and teens so we should not expect them to be able to do something responsible.
Most my teen years as I needed money to get the things I wanted was about me showing I was to be trusted. I didn't do nothing to be descridited but because I was a teen and teens do dumb sh@ I was expected to behave the same.
The last story OP daughter needs therapy at least to address her issue with her mom and redirect her anger properly. It is also not healthy to be vaping. Is the same as smoking. Still has bad consequences for your health and is addictive.
Please don't talk low on an ongoing issue which kids are having because we are not giving the proper attention and importance.
2nd story the op is the A-hole my sibling if gay is welcome with their partner, I have Muslim sibling whose daughter is gay and if he can except and love his daughter they can too
