DS (18) and I were invited to lunch yday at his aunts (also Godmother) my SIL house. Her partner of 5 years is I am sorry to say bloody unpleasant and noone in the family likes him. He doesn't seem to work although thinks he is a great intellect and essentially sponges off her. She is lovely but a soft touch.
Anyway we keep in touch as noone else does for her sake. Her partner sat with his dinner on his big belly ranting about the Middle East and at one point demanded dessert. DS who is a very reserved young man doesn't say boo to a goose suddenly tore a strip off him, about how dare he speak to his aunt like that, it is clear he doesn't respect women etc. Very embarrassed silence followed by a quick departure. Now this idiot man is emailing saying we aren't welcome there any more and am I proud of raising a gay son( he isn't gay but so what etc) I worry for SIL as she is trapped with this buffoon but I am also very proud of my DS for stepping in...
