But then there’s Sharon, the father-in-law’s wife, and the walking embodiment of “it’s not about me, but let’s make it about me.” Sharon and the mom had a feud that could rival Game of Thrones.
According to Sharon—aka The Wicked Stepmom—Mom was downright diabolical, laughed at her miscarriages, called CPS (child protective services) on her, and generally plotted her downfall. Pretty intense accusations, Sharon. To me, it sounds like this lady has watched a few too manytelenovelas.
The husband’s extendedfamily, the true keepers of the tea, say it’s all wildly exaggerated. They claim the two women simply didn’t get along, with Sharon maybe playing the drama card a little too liberally.
Plus, the husband’s relationship with his dad and wickedstepmomhas been rocky for years. When the mom passed away, he even banned them from attending the funeral, threatening to run away if they dared to show up.
But our OP, being the no-nonsense legend she clearly is, shut it down fast. She told them, point-blank, that changing her child’s name to spare Sharon’s feelings wasn’t even remotely on the table. Then she dipped out, leaving Sharon and Dad stewing in a broth of their own entitlement.

Now, the OP and herhusbandare being bombarded with texts, accusing our new mom of being “rude and disgusting” for dismissing Sharon’s feelings. Too far, Sharon, too far.
We also asked if there are ways to involve family in the naming process without compromising on deeply personal choices. Kihm suggested that it’s not a really a good idea to do so.
