to be annoyed that I have been labelled a 'chicken'

Last night DP and I popped into his parents house for a cup of tea and to show his dad our new car.

His dad came out and I went inside to see his family. His mum came downstairs in mis-matched pjs and his sister told me his mum has had the sh!ts and soiled her trousers three times that evening.
With that she sat forward, said 'here it goes again' and then didn't move until DPs sister told her to go upstairs. When she got there she shouted down that she didn't make it in time, would have to put a nightie on and would wash these trousers out in the sink first with the others!

I am 22w pregnant and at that point got up and said I was going, if she had any bugs I didn't want to catch them and I would see them another day. Then I went to the car and told DP we were leaving and the reasons why.

DP went back in to get his keys and a family friend that was there was laughing that I had left and said I was a chicken.
I am annoyed that they knew I was going round and his mum was ill and noone bothered to say and that they made a comment because I had left.

Now I have written it it sounds petty...

I've known of people like this. Some people just have bizarre standards. I'm not surprised you ran for it.

YANBU, they are gross. Serves them right if they catch it.

Worksallhours nailed it beautifully.

It is so dreadful, I also find it hard to process.

'Wash them out in the sink'? Dear God. I would be tempted to throw them away. 90 degree 2 hour wash at least.

I wouldn't go back, ever. Ever ever ever. God knows what else is acceptable to them.

If anybody behaves like this, and the family are not fazed- then you cannot be surprised by this behaviour.? You must have seen some warning signs before?

Was there twangy banjo music playing in the background? Run pinky, run!
