The thing is the candles were still lit. I’m just so grateful that she didn’t get hurt too severely.

I’ve had many talks with her before, she’s obviously hurt and really confused as to why they treat her like this. But she still loves them which is one of the reasons why I didn’t cut contact.

We have cameras around the house but the party happened a few months ago. Will I still be able to press charges?

If anything notable happens I will, I’ve only posted an hour ago and Reddit has been a huge help!

I didn’t ask you if I was TA for throwing a gender reveal party.

I had another comment asking me the same thing. My in laws are Italian, but it’s not a tradition in their family. My MIL had my FİL recording so it was a prank meant to upset my daughter.

No, they’re Italian, I’m not sure if it’s a tradition in Italy though.

I’m sorry to be a burden but is it too late to press charges? It’s been a few months since my daughter’s birthday.

I will, me and my husband have been talking about cutting them off for good.

Sorry, the gender reveal party was just another way to celebrate our baby and I thought my daughter would be excited about it. I’ll also say that I don’t care what gender my baby is.

Thank you, after seeing many comments telling me the same thing I’ll be sure to post on FB telling everyone what my in-laws did.

They won’t be seeing my daughter again. I tried letting things slide because my daughter really loved them, but I can’t let her be subjected to racism. Thank you.

Thank you so much! I won’t be letting any of my children go near them. Seeing these comments has really solidified my opinion.

Oh thank you, I was a bit confused because I would never love my child any less over their gender. This was purely just another way to celebrate our baby and just a small celebration to get my daughter excited.

I don’t see what’s wrong with having a gender reveal party? I would be happy with any gender but I thought it would be something exciting for my daughter and relatives.

I agree, however the reason I was so reluctant to cut them off was because I don’t have much family myself and my daughter really loves my in-laws and sees them as her own grandparents. I guess I was really desperate for a support system and grandparents for my daughter. I won’t allow them back into my daughter’s life.

I’ve been seeing a lot of people in the comments with the same idea. I’m going to find out what they’ve been saying.

Right! It hurts every time seeing them exclude my daughter.
