So I've name changed so this doesn't out me, and I'll try and keep it brief.
We went to a family wedding at the weekend, on dh's side.
I spent some time chatting to the bride's mother, and we just had a basic catch up about children etc. She went on to say that her youngest daughter is giving them lots of grief at the moment but didn't want to go into detail, but then went on to say she is 5 weeks pregnant and they're fuming.
I assumed they (the parents) were unhappy due to her still living at home, and isn't with the father anymore and is half way through a college course.
But no, they have given her an ultimatum to have a termination or leave by the end of this month, as the baby will be mixed race and they "don't agree with mixed race children".
I'd had a drink and couldn't think what to say. We were at that point interrupted by the bride, who doesn't know about her sister's pregnancy, as they didn't want to upset her in the run up to the wedding.
This has really surprised me that they could think like this. They also foster children which I find worrying considering they have racist views.
I'm really worried about dh's niece.
