NTA. MIL’s tantrum over granddaughter’s name sparks family feud

NTA. So much to unpack here. She doesn’t get to pick the baby’s name. She can’t hurl massive insults your way and not expect consequences. She has to respect your marriage and place in her son’s life. Gossiping about you and telling tall tales to create a wedge won’t change your mind about the visits. She’s certainly not entitled to see you naked and vulnerable and when she makes herself a cause of stress, definitely not. You’re the parents. Respect for your authority needs to be complete. She can’t pretend to accept it now and turn around and do whatever the heck she wants with your kid. If you set a rule she disagrees with, it still needs to be followed. She had her kids. It’s your turn now.
