My sister in law well husbands sister in law (husband's brothers wife) has still not said congratulations to me on the birth of my son!
Am I being harsh in expecting somebody to say congratulations by text/phone/card or person?
Everybody else family, friends people I don't even know have congratulated me and my hubby on the new addition.
LO is now 10 weeks and still nothing.
Everybody has come to visit my son expect her and her kids.
My mother in law called today to ask if we were coming over to her house and I said no (they live with the in laws) I said I am not coming over and nor is my LO because the other daughter in law have not congratulated us or even come over to see the new addition. Mother in law started making excuses for her and I said so her mouth and hands aren't working that she can't call me or text me. Mother in law didn't know what to say other than I know.
Mother in law covers up for her but then moans about her behind her back lol. Am i being harsh for punishing in laws of not seeing their grandson just because the daughter in law cannot be bothered with saying congrats. I refuse to go to their house and I told mother in law to come to our house so in laws said they will come tomorrow.
The other daughter in law has three boys herself and we have gone to see each of them within days of being born and helped them loads.
Oh well can't choose family can you lol
I have got the attitude that I will do as much for people as they do for me so I will not bother with her anymore.
