In laws

If I get one more reply about me implying they are HISPANIC I swear I'm going to lose it. Help me. Don't judge me for saying they speak Spanish. I need help with my in-law problem not your racist or anti racist comments. Thank you
I can nt stand my boyfriends parents! They are hispanic and will onlt speak spanish well knowin i dont know it to talk bad abput me to my bf. all they do is say how fat and lazy I am. I refuse to see them which makes my boyfriend upset because thy don't get to see our baby which I think is totally fine. They are completely unsupportive and never listen to my protest of giving my 6 month old sugar. I've had to forcibly move his mother from giving him a lolli pop. Help me! If I have to see them one more time I will go crazy! I would have my bf just take the baby but I brestfeed and he is a big mamas boy. I just don't know what to do

What does their being Hispanic have to do with anything? I'd tell his mom my kid my rules. Follow my rules or I won't be letting you see him.

Meh, I would set ground rules. I mean you said he can't take your LO without you because you breast feed. At least when you're there you could put a stop to them trying to feed LO all kinds of things you don't want him having.

Tell them if they want to see him, they can come to your house and follow your rules.

I wouldn't want someone giving my DD a lollipop that young either, but I think that cutting them out of their grandchild's life isn't exactly right either. I'd try to talk to them and let them know that seeing your LO is a privilege, and that if they want to do so, they need to abide by your rules. Just keep in mind grandparents always spoil, so maybe that's why they're doing the lollipop thing. And semi OT, but what does them being Hispanic have to do with anything?

I feel the same exact way about my boyfriends parents I can't stand them! And my boyfriend is upset about it but I refuse to go visit them so they also don't see the baby often and I'm perfectly okay with it

What does Hispanic have to do with anything, my SO is Hispanic, all his family is Hispanic. I have alot of peeves with them but can't really find a way to start a vent with "SOs parent are Hispanic and..." Lol
As far as that goes, your kid...your rules. I'd tell em to can it. They complain you are fat but they wanna give LO sugar? That's kinda ass backwards...

I don't get the whole hispanic thing either since my in laws are white and the same way. It is messed up to keep them away from their grandchild and puts a wedge in the relationship your son has with them. Put your foot down and stick with it when it comes to feeding your baby things. I've taken my child away from my MIL when I felt like she was yelling in my daughter's ear.

I don't? Hispanics call people fat and lazy all of the time? I can't speak for all Hispanics, but I'm Mexican and Puerto Rican, and none of my family acts like that....

! ! ! !
SO is Puerto Rican. His whole family is Puerto Rican. If they call me lazy its because I am lazy (in not so many words. His mom ribbed us about our cleaning. We weren't keeping up with some chores when she visited. I don't blame her for that! Our porch was filthy and our microwave looked like a ramen noodle gave birth in there.) I just don't see where race would make someone rude or mean. Rude or mean people are rude or mean, being Hispanic is not a prerequisite. Lol
