New mother refuses to lend money to help her in-laws fix their car, claims she needs to provide for her newborn, husband takes his parents' side: ‘He has held a grudge’

In case you didn't know, babies are really expensive. Some couples start to save money years before they actually plan on having a baby, just to get a head start on all the expenses a baby is responsible for.

The hospital stay, diapers, food, clothes, furniture, and eventual daycare are just a drop in the ocean of expenses new parents deal with, along with the fact that at least one parent usually takes a leave, and they have to manage with one income, at least for a little while.

So while the new parents in the story below were dealing with all of that, on top of actually taking care of a newborn baby, their in-laws decided it was the right time to ask them for money. Their daughter-in-law, however, knew the only one they should spend money on was their baby, so she told her in-laws no. Her husband, on the other hand, disagrees with her decision and claims they should help his parents regardless of the baby.

There's more family drama to the story, and years of grudge held, so keep scrolling to read the full tale. After that, check out this story of a woman who kicked her fiancé out after finding out what he really does with the money she gives for his business…

AITA for disapproving of my in laws asking to borrow money when we just had a baby?
