🍼 Family Feud: Who Gets to See the Baby First? 👪😬
This expectant father is caught in a sticky situation between his wife and his mother. With cultural differences and a lukewarm relationship between the two women, the wife has put her foot down: no visits from hubby's mom for 3 weeks after the baby's born! The husband thinks it's only fair that if his wife's family gets to see the baby, so should his mom. But the wife isn't budging, leaving the poor guy in the doghouse. The internet has some strong opinions on this one, so let's see what they have to say! 💬
Wife may be concerned about mother-in-law's racism towards baby. YTA.
