My [29M] family has been treating my wife [25F] disrespectfully, huge fallout, what now? Hey, Reddit! Sorry if this is a little all over the place or confusing, this is my first time posting here. My wife "Kate" and I have been married for four years, together for a total of nearly eight years. I love Kate more than anything and I'm so happy that I get to spend the rest of my life with her. We make a great team. We are expecting our first child and we're super excited! My family has always been polite to Kate, but it was obvious that they didn't really like her that much from the start, mostly due to her "upbringing" according to them. This pissed me off and led to me limiting contact with most of them, but we still see them sometimes because we want to spend time with my mom and sister. My mom and older sister are the only ones in my family that genuinely like Kate and aren't just being polite for my sake, they welcomed her into the family with open arms. Kate loves them and feels like she's part of the family when it comes to them. I think my mom has taken on a motherly role with Kate because Kate never really had a loving mom. Kate lost her parents to a murder/suicide when she was entering high school (which was obviously extremely traumatic for her, she was there to witness it); she and her little sister then went from foster home to foster home for four years. Kate had basically raised her little sister since she was born, they were incredibly close and they loved each other a lot. Shortly after we started dating, Kate's little sister died in a car accident. There was also a lot of abuse during Kate's childhood (both of her parents were drug addicts, abusive, just terrible people before they died). She has been in therapy since to deal with the trauma and grief from these incidents. Anyways, my family is "higher class" and I had "a more disciplined upbringing" compared to Kate (their words, not mine). They claim that because I went to a private school and served in the Marines, I'm somehow a better person than Kate. It literally has nothing to do with Kate's personality; she is beyond respectful, even cried at family Christmas because she was so thankful for the gifts my mother and sister got her. She's nothing but sweet, grateful, and kind to my family. It's all because her childhood wasn't "good enough." Which is why we rarely visit anymore. We recently got together with my family to catch up. Kate and I had planned to announce the pregnancy, and we were both excited. The previous visit to family a few months before had been pleasant, so we hoped that this would go smoothly. Lmao. The announcement started off fine; we told everyone, my mom and sister got excited, we were congratulated. My dad and brother, however, didn't seem happy at all. My brother pulled me aside to talk to me. He said, "Seriously, you knocked her up? Get an abortion before it's too late." Kate and I had been trying for a baby, and I told him to shut the gently caress up and stop being a dick. Our baby is more than wanted. He seemed pissed off, but shut up and went back into the living room. We hung out for a little bit and caught up (it had been months since we'd last talked to them). My mom was talking to Kate about baby names, what gender would it be, etc. My sister was talking to me about how excited she was for us. My dad and brother were silent. Out of nowhere, my brother asks about our last pregnancy, which ended in a miscarriage at 30 weeks. Kate immediately went silent and I just couldn't believe he'd bring that up. I told him that we'd rather not talk about it, it was a horrible loss for both of us and we wanted to focus on the good news. He laughs, laughs, and says that maybe we'd get lucky and lose this one too because we're "too pussy to get an abortion." My dad laughs and agrees. They start talking about how Kate would be a terrible mother, how I'm "pussy-whipped," and that we'd probably lose the baby. He called Kate a "trashy crack whore," along with some other expletives. They have literally never said anything this awful before, ever. I don't know if the pregnancy announcement made them more hostile or something, but this was a whole new level of cruelty. I usually never resort to violence, but I started screaming at them, grabbed my brother and punched him square in the face. I honestly don't remember what I was saying to him but I was pissed. My mom and sister get me off of my brother; they were crying and begging me to stop. It snapped me out of it and I just said we were going to leave. I found Kate outside, crying, and it broke my loving heart. We left. After that, I don't want Kate to ever have to hear anything like that again. I'm willing to go no contact, but Kate feels guilty. She says that she feels like she's tearing my family apart. I'm trying to reassure her that this isn't her fault, my dad and brother said truly horrible and unforgivable things and that's their fault. She still feels like she's to blame somehow. My mother and sister apologized for my dad and brother's behavior, specifically to Kate, but we aren't ready to approach the issue. For the time being, I haven't said anything to my family. But I don't know what to do next. Should we maintain a relationship with my mom and sister? Should we go 100% NC indefinitely? I feel like I've just lost my entire family and it hurts. It hurts that they'd treat my wife this way. I don't know what to do. Please help. TL;DR: Huge family fallout, family is in shambles. What now?

That relationship can't really exist past phone calls and christmas cards by proximity to dad though Completely dropping off the face of the earth levies real consequences on the shitheads who drove you out of the family, though, and you can always resolve no contact after the earth's been scorched a bit. edit: seriously though where do you think that marriage is going to be when mom's gotta go on facebook to see pictures of her 3 y/o grandkid she's never met or spoken to because her shitheaded husband couldn't keep his abortion jokes to himself during the pregnancy announcement?

It's such a relief to read a story where the person stands up for their partner after so many posts where they don't whether it's real physical danger, sexual assault, or people just being mean to them.

The sister can just keep doing everything normally, there's no insinuation that she lives with her parents or anything. She should she suffer any fallout for her father and other brother sucking? That's stupid.

Have to admit my real priority is making poo poo bad enough for so many people that sheer social consequences bring harm to the dad Most of my side of my family is lovely in similar ways (though, thankfully, not to my partner) and in my experience the only way to make those people eat poo poo is to make them feel pain, and when they don't respect you enough to let you hurt them, you've got to do it through the other people that surround them.

Some people can be really lovely about foster kids, especially since foster kids can have a hard time in early adulthood. Combine that with drug associations with the family and I can see how lovely dudes (who probably have never meaningfully interacted with Kate and don't want to) could jump to thinking she's a trashy crackwhore/golddigger/insert misogynistic insult here.

WAY TO GO WAMPA!! posted:My (30M) GF(25M) went out and partied till 8am last night, used coke and then breastfed our son. from the comments quote:Based on the toxicity exhibited in the infant after exposure via the milk, maternal cocaine use during breastfeeding should be strongly discouraged and considered contraindicated. Obviously, mothers should also be warned against using the drug topically for nipple soreness. The American Academy of Pediatrics classifies the use of cocaine as contraindicated during breastfeeding (73). i just really love the deadpan tone of this one.

Xun posted:I thought it was also because Kate is *gasp*, poor. Yep. Even with some guys I've dated who have rich/well-connected parents, they'd ask what my parents do and I'd say "my dad's in QA/disabled and my mom's a lab tech" and they'd be skeeved out and tell him to stay away from me or whatever. We were pretty solidly middle class.
