Mom Fights Back: No More Fake Names for Her Daughter!

Imagine having a beautiful, unique name that represents your heritage, only for someone to constantly call you by a different name. That’s exactly what happened to a young girl named Saoirse (not her real name, but similarly Irish). Her grandmother, who is anti-Irish, insisted on calling her by an ‘English name’ and even tried to correct her accent. But this fierce mom wasn’t having any of it! She decided to take matters into her own hands and put an end to the name-calling once and for all.

Mom Stands Up for Daughter’s Name and Identity ✊

This brave mom had enough of her anti-Irish ex-MIL’s refusal to call her daughter by her real name, Roisin. Despite breaking down the pronunciation for MIL, she continued to insist on calling her Ruby, just to make her sound more English. After giving a fair warning, the mom finally put her foot down and hung up on MIL during a video call. While her ex and cousin think she should apologize, many believe she’s doing the right thing by standing up for her daughter’s identity and heritage. What do you think? Was she right to take a stand?

You warned her there would be consequences for her continued prejudice against your child’s Irish heritage, and followed through when she didn’t cease. Your ex should be standing up for your daughter to his mother, not defending his close-minded mother’s ridiculousness to you.”
