A couple left their 2-year-old son with the wife’s parents for a weekend getaway. The father was raised Lutheran and the mother was raised Catholic but neither practice religion. The mother’s mother, however, insisted on baptizing the child in secret at her church. The father was outraged when he found out and forbids the in-laws from ever watching their son unsupervised again. The mother is upset and thinks the father is overreacting. The couple is at a stalemate and the father is willing to go to counseling if necessary. Do you think the father is justified in his decision or is he being too harsh? Share your thoughts in the comments below.

Husband fumes after wife’s parents secretly baptize son ⛪️

A long weekend getaway turned into a nightmare for a couple after the wife’s parents secretly baptized their grandson without their consent. The husband, who was raised Lutheran, and his wife, who was raised Catholic, but neither currently go to church, had not baptized their son. The mother-in-law, who thinks their grandson needs to be baptized, went ahead and did it without their consent. The husband was furious and felt it was a huge breach of trust. He told his wife that her parents would no longer be allowed to watch their son unsupervised. The wife disagreed and accused him of being an a**hole for trying to control her relationship with her parents. They have been at an impasse for a month now, and the husband is not budging. He sees it as a hill he’s willing to die on. What do you think about this situation? Have you ever experienced a similar breach of trust? Share your thoughts and reactions in the comments below.
