To be slightly annoyed at nephews comment

[mrsaxos]

My DS who is in his early 20's is a similar age to his cousin. Recently DS commented on a social media post by his cousin which included a photo of said cousin smoking a cigarette, DS commented "don't smoke, you're so crazy" His cousin then commented back saying "Did your mum hack you".

I am very anti-smoking and I have to admit nephews comment just king of irked me a bit. Am I being unreasonable, DH who doesn't smoke as well thinks I am."

You are massively over reacting

Yab ridiculous.

Your DS should butt out

Massive overreaction to a flip comment.

what made you start a thread about this today? are you hosting him?

What the hell have the comments got to do with you?

Both your son and his cousin are adults. One is allowed to disapprove of the other smoking, and the other is allowed to tell him where to go.

If your son is in his early 20s he probably shouldn't be commenting on other peoples choices. If he was 15/16 I could understand. Your son has made his (sensible choices) but has to respect other peoples.

It's not personal, it's your DN using a general snarky response to your DS checking up on him. Don't give it a second thought.

Your DS sounds a treat

Lecturing his adult cousin on SM
And then running to his mummy to tittle tattle

Shudder

Not sure why it is okay to blame mum for a comment. It feels a bit misogynistic to me

Pithy comeback, touche. Nice one nephew

or the cousin knows that the OP lectures him every time she sees him

Did you hack him though?
😁

Your DS should keep his opinions to himself. Even if smoking is a really bad idea, it's not great to impose opinions like that.

As for the mum remark - let it go.

Your DS is being unreasonable to judge other adults on their choices.

It’s not misogynistic if you’ve got a reputation within the family for being anti-smoking.

Are you a bit stressed about Xmas, or are you usually highly sensitive?

If you're only slightly annoyed that means the comment made is absolutely fine.

Like what you did there 😉

You are massively over reacting. He was saying it sounds like a comment a mum would make. Your son should stay out of other peoples business.

He's saying it because it sounds like something you would say.

Your nephew was probably trying to highlight to his friends that the comment was from a relative rather than someone who is a friend.

This.

And then mummy goes onto social media to complain about a comment that was made to her son when he butted into someone else's business.

Quite embarrassing all around.

Over reacting. It’s not a big deal is it, you are against smoking… your son rudely commented that he shouldn’t be smoking, cousin joked he sounded like his mum, it’s better than telling him to F off and mind his own business.

So DS gives his (unasked) for opinion

Cousin comments that your DS’ unasked for comment sounds like something you would say

It is something you would say.

and you are offended? Really?

Your son sounds like a bit strange in the first place for telling another adult not to smoke on a public comment section, he should mind his own business, even if meant as a joke.

And it seems like he then went and told you what his response was? Spineless!! But judging by your sensitivity to the comment, it does seem like you know why he would say 'did your mum hack you'

Good comeback from nephew. That would make me laugh. No idea why you are offended.
