In a recent Reddit post, a user conflicted with her SIL’s parents. Here’s the whole story.
A Heated Confrontation
Sarah had always been close to her brother, and when he married the love of his life a couple of years ago, she couldn’t have been happier for him.
However, her sister-in-law’s parents disowned her due to religious reasons.
They had recently reached out to reconcile, and a meeting was finally arranged for them to meet Sarah’s nephews.
Little did Sarah know that this encounter would become a heated confrontation and leave her questioning her actions.
Hurtful Comments About Her Daughter’s Past Miscarriages
On the day of the meeting, Sarah found herself babysitting her nephews and eagerly waiting for her boyfriend to pick her up.
As she welcomed her SIL’s parents into the house, things turned unexpectedly.
The conversation shifted to the topic of faith, and the SIL’s mother made hurtful comments about her daughter’s past miscarriages, claiming they were a punishment for marrying Sarah’s brother.
Emotions ran high as Sarah’s sister-in-law burst into tears, and her nephews were on the verge of crying due to their mother’s distress.
She Threatened To Call the Police
Sarah couldn’t contain her anger. At that moment, she yelled at her SIL’s parents to leave. Ignoring their confusion and protests, Sarah threatened to call the police if they refused to go.
Eventually, she managed to get them out the door, but not before a heated exchange of words took place.
Still fueled by her anger, Sarah made a derogatory comment about their religious beliefs.
Her brother, who was with one of the boys in the nursery, heard the commotion and rushed to comfort his distraught wife.
A Facebook Post Accusing Her of Religious Discrimination
On the other hand, Sarah stepped outside to ensure that her SIL’s parents had left. However, she discovered their car still parked in the driveway, and they began shouting at her about God and their faith.
It was in that heated moment that Sarah uttered a profanity-laden reply. Eventually, they left.
Sarah didn’t think much of the incident until her brother called her the following day. He informed her that his in-laws had made a Facebook post accusing her of religious discrimination and claiming to be the victim of minority persecution.
Reflecting on the situation, Sarah acknowledged that she never intended to discriminate against her sister-in-law’s parents or their faith.
Did She Go Too Far?
However, she questioned whether she went above the line. She took to Reddit to ask if she was wrong for what she did, and several comments said she was not wrong.
One Reddit user wrote, “NTA, the things the in-laws said were disgusting, and they used religion to justify it. Ignore their temper tantrum on Facebook.”
Another Reddit user wrote, “NTA. Religious individuals love to play the persecution and discrimination card after just moments before being blatantly discriminatory or despicable themselves.”
