Christmas crisis: Reddit user sides with mother, not wife, over whether to hang a stocking for his stepson
Fox News
A Reddit user was lambasted after he refused to stick up for his stepson's inclusion in a family Christmas tradition. The user asked if his wife was "being ridiculous" — and many took her side.
The man explained that each Christmas, his mother has a tradition of hanging customized stockings by the fireplace for each of her grandchildren. "I called her ridiculous for deciding not to go over something so trivial." — Reddit user "If your mother can’t even bring herself to have a sock with his name on it, then your stepson deserves better than your family." "More attention should be given to what is best for the stepchild and, in turn, the marriage." Christine Rousselle is a lifestyle reporter with Fox News Digital.
However, she does not have a stocking for her own son's nine-year-old stepson — even though Throwra53456 has been married to his wife for three years.
