Our story begins with a mom and her husband agreeing to go no contact with her sister-in-law (SIL) and her husband after a nasty incident involving their 8-year-old son. The SIL’s husband purposely tripped the boy, causing him to hit his head, and the cops were called, but no action was taken. The couple agreed that the SIL and her husband wouldn’t meet their soon-to-be-born baby until they apologized and showed remorse. Fast forward to when the baby is almost six months old, and there’s still no apology. Then, the mom’s mother-in-law brings up a family gathering at the SIL’s house, and it’s revealed that the husband has been talking to his sister, who wants to meet the baby. The SIL sends a text that doesn’t include an apology, but rather blames the son and the husband for the incident. The mom decides to stick to her agreement and not let the SIL meet the baby, but her husband and mother-in-law disagree. Now, let’s see what the internet thinks of this situation…
