Jesus that is so messed up. It’s such a weird obsession too, furthering the family line. Like are we all royalty all of a sudden? Which hearths will I inherit, mother? Or will I inherit a bunch of debt and grandma’s Beanie Baby collection? Get off your high horse.
Having said that, this shit must hurt. Sorry she went through that. It’s such a stupid thing to be this shitty about.
Little Bourgeois like to pretend they’re rich and imitate the rich because of that. It’s why people have lawns in a desert climate and eat way too much meat.
The doctor that performed the TL asked her about it in his opening small talk, “but you’re so young!” then he opened her file, started reading, and apologized.
Way out of line. He was probably about to ask what her husband would think.
I’ve chosen not to have kids by choice and I use to hear all the time from coworkers that weren’t born here, “gasp! what about your grandkids and your old age? Who will take care of you? You will regret it!”
Many years later now that I’m older I hear from the same ones say I made the right decision. “You get to enjoy your life and not to worry what those little a-holes have done wrong now. They aren’t a burden you can’t get rid of” I then usually ask them are they sure it’s not too late to abort?
Because not all people have toxic extended family, lol. Most of my extended family are awesome, friendly folks. I think you meant, “avoid toxic people in general,” versus, “avoid extended family specifically”?
Well yeah pretty much. It is incredibly difficult for some though to come to that realization and apply it to family, because there’s so much pressure put on family relationships that nearly all abuse will be overlooked when if the people weren’t family they’d never choose to interact or ever get along. The arbitrary family connection causes years of pointless suffering.
There are some good families out there as I’ve dated myself into some of them over the years.
However there are many where you can hear the banjos playing a little too close when you go to a family event like a wedding.
It takes having your own banjos at times to know which ones are really playing them and which ones to cut out which is hard for many. I’ve been able to do it over the years but it wasn’t easy for others to understand. I know I’m better off for it in the long run.
I’ve never understood old cookbooks. Why would I make cow cunt boiled in fish oil with kale when I have the internet ,and can make food meant for human consumu?

Well Grandma’s China cabinet and furniture needs to go somewhere as her kids won’t take them.
Oh no! Not the cookbooks! With secret recipes for KFC and self-sustaining fusion reactor.
Honestly, you should tell your in-laws to piss off. They sound toxic af.

Sorry to hear.

People are weird, including me…
That’s fuck up. Sorry for your wife.
Family is toxic and pointless. I don’t know why people subject themselves to it as adults.
I’m talking about extended family, beyond your adult household.

Some families are stocked with reasonably pleasant people
