Hey, this is Sam.

This is John.

The OG Storytime podcast hosts.

Oh yeah, and we got some great stories coming up.

But before that, we got a teeny two-minute break from the sponsors that keep this show propped up like a little house.

Oh, yeah.

This is an I-Heart podcast.

Guaranteed human.

I revoked my mother-in-law's baby monitor access because of her comments.

She was like, was she whispering dastardly things in the baby monitor?

I, 32 female, have a three-month-old baby with my husband, 31 male.

His mom lives across the country.

We're on the East Coast and she's in California.

And to be honest, she's always been a little intense. Not a full-blown monster-in-law, but definitely more involved than I'm used to. Like, she's the kind of woman who will call to say that she saw a cuter outfit for the baby than the one that I posted on Instagram. By the way, this comes from Valuable Kitchen 4377 on the Charlotte Dober YouTube subreddit. And if you want to submit your own stories, go to the R slash OK Storytime subreddit. And I'm Angie. I'm Dakota. I'm Riley. And Opie says, anyway, when our baby was born, my mother-in-law asked if she could have access to the baby monitor so that she could see her grandchild grow up from afar. I was a little iffy on it,

but my husband thought it would be sweet and would help her feel more connected since she can't visit

often. So I agreed. We have a nanit camera in the nursery, which lets you view the video feed from

anywhere. What I didn't realize is that she'd be watching us all the time. Like, not just the baby

sleeping. She comments on things that she has no business even noticing. Like the other day, I was

a front airbag feeding in the nursery wearing a robe because it's more comfortable. And a few

hours later, she texted my husband saying, tell O P, I'd be happy to send her a nicer robe. That red one's looking a little raggedy. Stop it. That's weird. That's weird. You stop. Quit it. Eye in the sky. Eagle Eye. You're being the movie Eagle Eye with Shia LaBuff right now. Yeah. Quit it. So now when I go to front airbag feed my baby, I have to, I have to watch out for being watched. Yeah. Access is revoked immediately. Come on. Well, actually, I give one warning. Yeah. And then I, as soon as it happens, the inevitable second time. It's cut off. Absolutely. Like, what? Excuse me? I was so creeped out. I mean, that was clearly during a private moment, not just the baby napping. I told my husband and he kind of just shrugged it off. He said something like, she doesn't mean anything by it. She's just observing. I grew up like that. We never had real privacy in the house. Okay, but we're not kids anymore, and she's not even here. She also makes a weird little passive aggressive comments. Like if the baby cries for a while, she'll text things like, poor little guy, someone must have been tired today, or I would have picked him up sooner, but you're the mama. Which feels like she's judging me, but trying to play it off as casual. And she always acts like she's just trying to help, but it's in a way that makes me feel like I'm constantly being watched and judged. It's not me, and it's just kind of boundary pushing. So I changed the settings on the camera, so she can't access it anymore. I didn't

announce it. I just did it. She texted my husband asking if something was wrong with her app and now he's

mad at me for making it a thing. He says it was harmless and now she feels cut off and I could have just
