A Young mom is tired of his fiancé’s mum’s “possessing behavior.”
The 23-year-old woman explained on Reddits “Am I a ——” forum That when she packs food for her babysitter to feed her boy, the food goes to waste because her future mother -in -law tells sitting to use the food she buys instead. Because of this, the woman no longer wants to “buy him groceries because the food I pack is only left untouched.”
“My mile was very involved in my pregnancy, for which I was very grateful,” she wrote about her 24-year-old hubby. “When I gave birth (last summer), support was transformed into possessing behavior.”
“I have raised this several times with my hubby,” she continued, leaving that no positive changes have been made over time. “My relationship was great with my mile until she started playing mom with my son. I have set boundaries and somehow they apply to everyone except her.”

She noted that the babysitting sessions occur in her mother-in-law’s house-with another family member who served as the boy’s babysitter.
“My mile is not my babysitter,” she emphasized and said that this food problem began when the baby started eating solids. “She will buy groceries to my son and has introduced food. I am at a point where I do not want to buy him groceries because the food I pack is only left untouched.”
“I have said my babysitter to feed what I pack but then she tells me she was told that there was food for him that my mile bought,” the woman wrote.
In an update of her original post, the woman made it clear that “I will still buy my son his food for our home” and for the babysitting sessions “she would have my mile use/buy food instead of me packing her meals.”

As a solution, the woman said she was starting to take her child to her own mother’s home, a 30-minute commute every way, so that the mother-in-law “will have no control over him.”
“I am very disappointed and feel that I am going into extremes, but I am just so tired of literally fighting to be the mother of my son,” she admitted.
Seeking the assurance asked the woman Redditors: “Am I a ——?”

Her posts have attracted hundreds of answers, with some readers who tell her that she is “NTA (not A ——)” but to be stricter across her boundaries.
“NTA, but you are kind of AH (A ——) adjacent, unless you have for any other reason than you seem to flounder between what you need to do and what you want to do,” replied a person. “You have to go Mammbjörn on her. Stop trying to get your husband to deal with her. He won’t.
