A woman shared a conflict with her mother-in-law (MIL) online, asking if she was wrong for kicking her out after neglecting her baby. The MIL had agreed to watch the woman\u2019s three-month-old daughter while she took a much-needed nap, as the woman was exhausted from caring for a colicky baby. The MIL also offered to make dinner, which the woman appreciated.<\/p>\n
However, when the woman woke up, she found her baby crying in her crib with a wet diaper and no baby monitor. She discovered the MIL outside, talking on the phone for over 30 minutes, during which time the baby had been left unattended. The MIL explained that she didn\u2019t hear the baby crying and unplugged the monitor to avoid disturbing the woman, but the woman was upset and asked her to leave.<\/p>\n
When the husband returned, he sided with his mother, saying his wife had made her feel stupid. Despite his disapproval, the woman stood firm, feeling betrayed by the MIL\u2019s neglect. Reddit users supported the woman, criticizing the MIL for neglecting the baby and agreeing that the husband should have backed his wife. Many emphasized the potential danger of the situation, particularly the risk of the baby choking on vomit.<\/p>\n
Overall, the woman\u2019s decision to kick out her MIL was seen as justified by the Reddit community.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
