Un-asking a god parent

1 reply

thefinerthingsinlife · 28/01/2010 16:05

My husband and i asked my cousin to be ds god-parent whilst i was pregnant, at the time she was in a long term relationship with a lovely guy, very mature for her age and very trustworth. Since then he found out she was cheating on him and they split. She now completely changed gets drunk and flaunts herself, also is now friends with undesirables. So understandabley we really dont want her to play such an important role in ds life. Previously she has asked to take dd who's 3 1/2 yrs old out for the day and we said no, which caused a huge row with my aunt and nana.
Do i tell her that we do want her to be god parent and cause an even bigger family rift or do we just put up with having her?
HELP

How about just having someone else as well? That way you don't feel any need to rely on her, but avoid an argument about her current behaviour. If she used to seem sensible and reliable, then probably there's something going wrong at the moment, and she may well get over this blip and back to how she was when you trusted her before.
