As the saying goes, you can pick your friends, but you can’t pick your family. This little truth of life means that sometimes family members don’t always see eye to eye about everything, and that’s when tensions can rise. Settling issues that involve family can be a delicate process, especially when more than one family member is involved. It takes a fair amount of tact and diplomacy to keep everyone happy.
For one Reddit user, things came to a head when her close family decided it would be a good idea to adopt the first and middle names of her unborn baby for their new puppy. This was particularly surprising because she and her husband had only told the names to the grandparents, who swore that they never leaked the name. The miffed mom-to-be, r/AtotheeffingM, turned to the r/BabyBumps community to vent.
