@redditstories_doggo: My Mother-in-Law is mad that I'm celebrating Christmas with my 1-year-old son because he's going to "lose his roots" growing up and never truly understand his religion. Plus one update. Posted by: u/RewardSpecialist3390 #reddit #redditstories #storytime #redditdoggo #minecraftparkour #redditreadings
why are people acting like her celebrating Christmas (NON RELIGIOUSLY) means she’s cutting off her son from his entire heritage? 😭

I’m Jewish and I do Hanukkah and Christmas. It’s fun and my husband and I enjoy it. It’s not that serious

gatekeeping a holiday or an activity or anything like that because you arent religious or another type of religion is so crazy that’s embarrassing like I’m atheist but I still do Easter because I like decorating eggs and spending time with family. I still do Christmas because again I like spending time with family. Like wtf

I have a Jewish friend who does “Christmakkah” because that’s what they did growing up with their family. They celebrate Hanukkah and Christmas for the fun of the festivities

Christmas stopped being about Christianity decades ago. It’s been secular my entire life (I’m 40).

Notice how Christmas movies are never about the religious aspect? Strange

MIL’s religion isn’t necessarily the child’s religion. The child isn’t old enough to know what religion even is. Or even what Christmas is. MIL has zero say on whether or not OP celebrates Christmas with her child and husband.

Tbh, she could recommend he set an alarm on his phone for like once a month/every couple of weeks that says “take picture of baby for mom.” Quality might not be the best still, but MIL made this bed

Jessica J9448 :
I see two options, if she's taking those pics for herself she could send them to husband then from there it's up to him or op has a respectful but honest talk with mil and let's her know her boundaries and if they are crossed again the issue will be permanently ended. Either way talk with husband first because it's his crazy mom

MIL is right and her reaction isn’t wrong. But OP gets to make her own traditions and no one can stop that.
