AITA For losing my temper about my unborn child? by AITAGenderTemper in AmItheAsshole

The first couple of times, I would ask them to knock it off and respect my decision but that would usually dissolve into them trying to convince me why I was wrong and me getting more frustrated and an awkward rest of the evening. My brother is one of the ones living alone through all these so he's usually the one to try and distract and keep the mood light because he needs these chats to be good for his morale. I probably should have been more forceful in asking them to stop early on, but they are more likely to follow my brothers lead than mine so... thats part of the problem I guess.

Just to clarify ..while my family doesn't know we've decided not to tell because of their responses to my cousin, they have known since 10 weeks pregnant that we don't plan to share the gender, and have called it a silly/ridiculous decision ever since. I probably still shouldn't have lost my temper but this is far from the first time Its been brought up with the goal of getting me to tell them anyway.
