My DB is separated from his W - they have a 5 y.o son together (my DN)
W called DB yesterday and announced she is having DN christened in Oct. She is not religious that I am aware of (they were together aprox 3 yrs prior to DN's birth so I have known her about 7 yrs).
Its just weird. Who christens their child when they are not actively practicing the religion themselves? (I was christened way back when, when it was the 'normal' thing to do when children were babies) and who does so without the fathers consent or even knowledge, let alone his blessing!?! Are you even allowed to do this? They were not married when my DN was born but he is on the birth certificate as father and has parental responsibility.
I need some perspective here ladies - or am I being U??
