My Sister-in-Law RENAMES my BABY... because she called DIBS on the Name - Entitled Reddit Podcast

[@technosugarcreations1956]

The amount of narcissism in this family is absolutely SHAMEFUL. Every time they apologize, it's only to regain your trust so that the moment you turn your back they can thrust another knife in.

[@Iliketrains170]

Nice way of putting it. 👌

[@0001captainawesome]

@@Iliketrains170 Nope, that only applies to the sister n law.

[@0001captainawesome]

"Narcissism" only applies to the sister n' law. The brother is a straight up simp, while it's quite obvious that the rest of the family either disapproves of the o.p.'s "situation", or 100,000% more likely only gives a shit about the boy in their family that is married to the sister n' law so that they carry on the family name for another generation. Even if the o.p. kept the same last name that's not how it works in some more traditional families where it's the sons that carry on the "legacy". What a shitty legacy that is though... (Not the practice I mentioned, I mean the family in general is just shitty; very).

This is how my older sister operates. I hate it. I have considered leaving everyone in my family, and I've done it for a year and a half but my abusive ex pushed me to be with my hurtful family (so he can fuel my family's behavior and gaslight me too). But, I see that my older sister influences everyone around her. I noticed this after she moved to another country and comes back every once in awhile. It's weird and I have seriously considered not allowing her near my future family when she is this way.

[@skeletonwithastick8527]

My mother actually got into the same situation as this, the way she handled it is hilarious, basically, all she did is "if you want to change my son's name, pay the entire hospital bills once I gave birth". after she said that, not a single soul voiced out any objections anymore in the family.

[@paulatreat2496]

I actually believe in some ways DIBS can be called. I married into instant family. My husband is divorced with two boys. As much as I adore those boys, I wanted children of my own, and my husband is from a large family and wanted more. So we talked baby names before I was even pregnant. We had a girl's name picked first; the middle name I had picked before I even knew my husband. But...when I do get pregnant, I find out it was the very name he and his ex-wife had planned for a girl. His ex was a little hurt that this name was discussed. I told her I would change the first name, but asked if it was ok to keep the middle since I had it picked before I knew my husband, and it turned out to be special to both our sides. She had no problem with that.

[@Book_lover6]

Same thing happened to my parents. My dad's sister in law tried to rename me. My first name was already hard for my parents to agree on. They picked Jocelyn, my aunt pick Rosalind. My mother was pissed. She threw her out of the hospital room and hasn't talked to her in nineteen years, minus a few occasions. In fact I didn't call her my aunt either. She was just Melissa to me and my parents. My grandmother on my maternal side also screamed at Melissa at my first birthday when she showed up with a gift addressed to a Rosalind. To this day if someone mentions her my parents moods almost immediately go down. The funny thing is she tried for years to have a child, specifically a girl whom she would name Rosalind. Turns out she only had a fifteen percent chance of conceiving, my uncle only had a ten percent chance of getting her pregnant. We found this out when I was twelve, my mom laughed her ass off for hours. Then she told her entire side of the family as an act of revenge. My uncle didn't give a damn about it either. The only reason we knew Melissa was pissed was because she drove all the way to Connecticut from Montana. Which is a thirty three hour drive. When she yelled at my parents in front of both of my parents' sides her husband told her to shut the fuck up and let it go. She then turned on him and said that if her wanted to be on my parents side they were getting divorced. He said this and I quote "I don't give a damn what you do. You need to learn that the world is not perfect. So please shut the fuck up or I will call a lawyer." Melissa shut up and left after he said that. From that day forward he was a legend on both sides for his bravery. He even got that divorce anyway. We threw a huge party. It was called The Banishment of the Family Bitch. My mom came up with that one herself. She still has the banner she made.

The sad thing about this situation is, if you take all of OP's reactions out of context, *she* would definitely seem to be the crazy one. For example, giving a baby a nickname isn't really a bad thing, but doing so for the SOLE PURPOSE of getting back at the mother because she took 'your' baby name is. It sucks that the family is already incredibly biased in favor of the SIL. It would probably be impossible to convince them that she was in fact the selfish, controlling one in the situation. If OP decides to move, she'll probably end up being known as the crazy family member for the rest of her life.

I agree that nicknaming a child or baby something cute out of endearment is nothing bad, but even if it's not done out of malice like OP's SIL, if the parents of the child ask you not to call them that it should be respected and it's in no way a crazy reaction for a parent to ask that you call their kids by their proper given and nick-names, at least until the child is old enough to decide if they like or dislike a nickname for themselves. That's my opinion at least

[@irisrowanmoon]

There's no amount of context taken out that would make it seem like OP is crazy to me. But that's because I've dealt with gaslighting, manipulation, and controlling narcissists my entire life. They are so smart that they'll work the field before you even are aware of it. So, no. OP isn't ever crazy, and if they call her that it's purely because they like to feel superior over someone they see as inferior and like that control they have of her not being able to defend herself.

[@hannahreed2451]

This hurts my heart 😞 I have a toxic family as well. Very differently incidents, but similar in toxicity. Tried to force me to abort my first, wished death upon my second (who was high risk and premature), and they don’t even remember the name of my third. I’m happily married living on the opposite side of the country. No support, no contact. I wouldn’t change a thing. Life can be hard especially as a young parent with no love or support from the people you would expect that from, but I can promise it’s much harder (and a 1000x more hurtful) to constantly beg for them to actually give a shit. I hope OP is ok and has actually cut the cord to these toxic people. They don’t deserve access to her or her child.

[@jessetaube]

but why did they try to abort your soon-to-be child?

[@hannahreed2451]

@@jessetaube because I was 17 and the southern Baptist church they attended at the time offered to pay for it. So my mom told me we were going to the doctor for a “checkup” and next thing I know I’m sitting in an abortion clinic with the procedure already paid for.. thankfully, when you go to a clinic like that they don’t just sit you in a room and go ahead with any procedure. They had to bring me into a back room to speak to a counselor alone. My mom was pissed that she wasn’t allowed to come back with me but they told her it’s not her body going through anything, it was mine, so they needed to speak to me to make sure this is my choice. Which of course it wasn’t. And they knew that. I explained that I didn’t want to go through with this but my mom wouldn’t let me leave without “proof”. The woman asked if I was safe to drive home with her. And I told her yes because my parents had already kicked me out and I was living on my own. So all I needed to do was pretend for the car ride home. She brought a nurse in to explain the situation and that’s when we made a plan. They told my mom they were giving me the pills and you take one at the clinic and one the next day. They sent me home with a circular Tylenol in this envelope thing so they didn’t break any laws giving me a prescription bottle with medication that didn’t match the label. Then they refunded me half of the money that the church paid (they couldn’t refund all but I wasn’t expecting a penny so I wasn’t mad at all), and they sent me home with a packet that apparently all patients get when they take the pills. So we literally pretended to go through with the procedure just so my mom would take me back home and that’s when I completely cut her and my dad off. I didn’t speak to them again till that same baby was 2 1/2. The best part was that the nurses and counselor at the clinic got me in contact with a ton of resources to get everything I needed for my baby. One of the nurses actually gave me a ton of her baby stuff she no longer needed like a stroller, clothes, bottles, blankets, and she personally bought me two huge packs of diapers…when I tried to pay her for at least some of it she absolutely not. The most hypocritical part about this entire situation was that the church who paid for the procedure would preach against abortion almost weekly and at the very least monthly. They were one of the churches that stand outside clinics and “protest” by screaming at patients walking in and trying to get license plate numbers so they can “expose these demons” yet when it “affected their optics” (their words not mine) abortion is suddenly a solution 🙄 and believe it or not that doesn’t even come close to what this church specifically did to me as a child. They’re the reason I no longer go to church and choose to work on my relationship with God privately… The only reason I spoke to my parents years later was due to the fact that I became pregnant with my second child. I didn’t announced my pregnancy until we had 8 weeks left because the pregnancy was filled with scares. I almost miscarried at 4 months, labor started at 6 months, and my body started treating the pregnancy (according to the doctor) Kirk a virus and he was actually losing weight no matter much I ate, rested, or stayed hydrated. He came a little over a month early and the day before I had him I had an ultrasound where the tech and the doctor both explained that they needed to schedule me to be induced since baby wasn’t doing good…but the stress from inducing him when there’s already a lot of stress on him could kill him. So dad and I needed to prepare just in case. My parents ended up calling me that same day and I just broke down and explained what was going on. I swear to you that my dad said “well, it’s not like you need another child anyways. This is for the best.” No “I’m sorry”, no “how can we help”, not even a “we’ll pray for you”. They were literally relieved when I told them my son is at risk of dying. My children didn’t affect them in any way seeing as I cut off contact after what happened with my first son and to this day I still kick myself for answering my dads call that day. The fact that my son possibly dying brought them joy made me physically ill. I was supposed to be induced 48 hours from my last ultrasound but thankfully my son decided he was coming on his own. I woke up that night having major contractions and within two hours of me waking up my son was here. But the best news is he didn’t even need the NICU! He came out hungry as hell and spent the first 3 months of his life sleeping and eating lol. He is 8 years old now 💙 Now my parents live on the opposite side of the country and i no longer speak to my dad. I will say he did apologize for everything he said and did to me all throughout my life and he said he’ll never forgive himself for his actions (my dad is manic bipolar so he doesn’t remember a lot of things he said and did). I told him of course I forgive him but I don’t want contact like he wanted. I’ll say merry Christmas and check twice a year tops but I have to keep my distance. It sucks but I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to have a normal relationship with him…there’s too much trauma there. My mom never apologized for anything. She feels like since she wasn’t the one abusing me or belittling me she has nothing to be sorry over…she fails to acknowledge that as a mother she was supposed to protect me and actually be my parent. I don’t “hate” them but I’ll never be able to open up to them or form a bond children are supposed to have with their children. I will say that I genuinely believe my dad has changed though. A few years ago he asked me if I would be ok with him sharing our story publicly and I said yes. He goes to meetings similar to AA as well as advocating for better mental health treatment options.

[@hummingbird6430]

Something similar happened with me when I was expecting my forst child except it was my ex partner, it was so bad that when me, and my husband found out I was pregnant I was excited, but at the same time freaking out cause my ex had ruined an experience that was supposed to be wonderful. He complained about my constant nesting, and my constant need for wanting everything clean. He got mad at me when I had cravings, and instead of saying hey honey we don't have the money right we'd get halfway to the store ask me if I was paying, then yell at me cause I told him I didn't have any money, and he would get mad asking me if I expected for him to pay for everything, sad thing os out of everything that I had for her he bought 1 onside, the rest was what I could get, and what I got for her babysitter then when we broke up had the audacity to say everything at the baby shower should be split in half because it was a gift for us. Then when I tried packing my stuff up he yelled at me the whole time then stole all of the baby stuff I had for her which at this point I was on maternity leave so my parents had to help me rebuy everything for her when I moved back in with them. My whole experience with my first child was ruined by my ex that I feared my husband for a bit while I was pregnant with my second child my husband's first. If he got loud, and not necessarily towards me cause he rarely raises his voice at me or our kids but in general I would cry and ask him to leave me be I had multiple panic attacks when he got loud cause of PTSD from my ex. My husband started trying not to yell, or get loud around me, or our kids he's a gamer so he mostly gets loud with his games. I never nested with my son, because I was scared my husband would get mad, and basically my whole pregnant with my second I was to scared to ask for anything. But my husband's traits are what brought me out he would kiss me, and my belly before he left for work, he would talk to our son while I was still pregnant. If I randomly grabbed his hand and placed it on my belly to feel our so kick his face would light up and he'd start telling me how much he loved me, and that he couldn't wait to meet our son. And all his traits were the complete opposite of my ex but it saddened me that because my first pregnancy was ruined, I was to scared to enjoy my second one.

Second, it's just so idiotic of the whole entire family ganging up on the OP and saying that she was "controlling" when they couldn't even use 1% of their brain to know the actual person is who is controlling. Third, how come the sister-in-law gets treated better than the OP when it was obvious that she was ruining the OP's time of having a child for the first time... even with the clearly unreasonable excuses and having a meltdown for literally no reason. Fourth, why does the sister-in-law get to name the baby and not the OP? It's literally the OP's CHILD. I don't know what gave the sister-in-law the idea to name a baby that isn't even her's. Plus, the name "Gilly" is just.... how is it cute!? "Grace" is better than "Gilly" in my opinion. I don't even think Gilly is suitable for the baby at all. I'm glad the OP left her family... they don't even know better and has lost a family member because of their stupidity.

Reminds me of my mothers side of the family. And uncle who has a relentlessly histrionic piece of shit, and my mother who often was the victim of his bullshit. A grandmother who was conceit incarnate, a grandfather who'd fuck off whenever issues arose, and the entire situation was only sustained due to my mother always, ALWAYS trying to be the better person and let bygones be bygones. And what happened when for once, my mother dug in her heels and demanded an apology for the umpteeth time my uncle pulled some bullshit that grossly victimized my mother, in this case causing my mother and us to be excluded from their 60th wedding anniversary? Well, we still aren't on speaking terms. A fucking apology of just saying "Daughter, I've fucked up. I should have reigned in your brother and tell him to get fucked, and instead I screwed you over. I have failed as a mother and a grandmother, and I'm sorry" was such a high fucking rung to climb that its been nearly 3 years and she still hasn't come through.
