Each family has their own beliefs, traditions, and perspectives.

This woman shares how she has always been called a “jerk” by her in-laws.

They thought she was not “honoring” their preferences, but they are the ones disrespecting the boundaries she put up.

Now, she doesn’t know how to deal with them.

Read the story below for all the details.

AITA for not caring about “honoring” my in-laws?

My husband and I apparently have differing views about honoring our parents.

And I’ve been made out to be the “jerk” by his family multiple times.

His family is not respecting boundaries that I have put up.

And so, I’ve definitely been a bit more rigid about things.

This woman wanted an intimate wedding.

My husband already ruined what I wanted for our wedding.

He invited his whole extended family as his parents wanted him to.

I wanted something more intimate.

He also let his mother take unwanted “formal” wedding pictures, which made me uncomfortable.

And just other various things.

They push and push and push, and it’s suffocating.

She also didn’t want any guests during the first 24 hours of their child being born.

Anyways, now, I’ve become the jerk again because I don’t want to “honor” his parents by not letting them see me and our firstborn child within the first 24 hours of me giving birth.

I don’t want my parents there, either. I just want it to be the two of us.

I already know myself, my body, my emotions, and with how overbearing his parents are.

Now, she doesn’t know where to stand and how to deal with her in-laws.

I know it’s going to be hell for me.

He claims that the birth isn’t “just about us; it’s about our parents, too.”

Which I laughed in his face about.

My parents don’t believe their first grandchild is about them, and so I’m not sure where my husband and his parents get this notion.

AITA for sticking my ground and refusing that? I feel like I’m going literally insane. LOL.

Her husband and in-laws need to respect her boundaries.
