MIL Wants Daughter’s Face Photoshopped To Remove Scar
MIL Wants Daughter’s Face Photoshopped To Remove Scar
When this man’s future MIL suggested his daughter’s scar be photoshopped out of wedding photos he promptly got up and walked out of the house. But now his fiancé is demanding he apologise to her mum. Should he?
“Judy has a visible burn scar on her forehead. It was due to an accident she was in when she was nine,” the dad wrote on Reddit.
“She used to be incredibly insecure about it. To the point where I was forced to home school her and it was hard trying to deal with and navigate through this rough time.”
So when it came time to his now 16 year old daughter to meet his fiancé’s family he asked her to prepare them so they don’t make his daughter feel uncomfortable.
But instead of that happening, it went the complete opposite way with the MIL continually pointing and asking about the scar.
“My future mother-in-law looked at Judy while she was eating and pointed at her scar,” he continued. “Basically, asking questions about it which made Judy lose her appetite and start to get uncomfortable. I kept sending my fiancé and her mum signs to knock it off – but to no avail.
Finally, FMIL then brought up the wedding and asked my fiancé if it’d be possible to ‘photoshop’ the scar out of any wedding photos that will have Judy in them just in case they distract viewers. I was dumbfounded.”
The worst part of this was that the fiancé just sat there without saying a single word. So he checked in on his daughter and asked her if she wanted to leave. She did.
“She took her time then nodded and said, ‘Yes, I’m feeling uncomfortable right now’,” he said.
“I got up and told her to get ready cause we were leaving. My fiancé, her mum and the family started insisting we finish dinner and stay but I refused.”
Unbelievably, the fiancé is now angry at her man for walking out on dinner and demands he apologise to her mother and the rest of the family.
How crazy right?!
Commneters on Reddit we’re quick to take the dad’s side with one even suggesting it’s the MIL’s face that should be photoshopped out.
“Your fiancée has shown her true colours. She doesn’t in fact care about your daughter,” remarked one person. “If she did, she would have realised that your future mother-in-law suggesting you ‘photoshop out the scar so it doesn’t distract’ is hella insulting. If I were you I’d rethink the wedding and that family. They owe YOU and JUDY the apology, not the other way around.”
Another said, “This is it. Even if she wasn’t that self-conscious about the scar, asking to photoshop features of the husband’s daughter with both of them present at the table, ooof!”
“How bout we just photoshop out the future mother-in-law instead?” added a third.
And this, “You will definitely be a giant a**hole if you marry this woman who bullies your daughter and lets her parents do it too.”
Do you agree?
