Have a wedding ceremony for your kids, even though you don’t want it.

In advance sorry for the issues with this post I just left a party at my partners parents house early because of some bullshit her dad pulled and I am a little drunk. Don’t worry I didn’t drive my very sober partner did.Anyway my partner has a sibling who is just on the verge of getting married. Literally they are getting married in 1-2 weeks. The sibling wants no ceremony or anything just the paper work signed so they are legally married well my partners dad goes on a rant about how their future kids will want to know about the wedding and even if they don’t want to have a wedding it will be talked about for the rest of their lives so they should have a ceremony. If for no other reasons then so the kids can hear about it. Well sibling responds “having kids is a BIG if, we want to be married now and may have a ceremony later” but dad won’t let it go. Siblings fiancé ends up leaving the conversation with the classic hair over the eyes so as to not look like they are crying. I leave to find her and she is in fact crying from all the unfair pressure.I JUST CAN NOT FUCKING UNDERSTAND WHY dad is putting all this pressure on them. I hate the for the kids mind set. What about for your kids who don’t want to have a big ceremony or anything. For fucks sake leave them alone let them live their lives. Of course later parents dad says “me and mom had a very small ceremony and regretted it” quit living vicariously through your kids stop putting pressure on them because you didn’t do what you want. via /r/childfree https://ift.tt/337VGXs
