Advice on how to handle QAnon InLaws when you have a baby? Leave the family?
Post Body

So, my and my husband welcomed our first baby last year and first grandchild on both sides. My mom has cancer so weā€™ve had to be very careful this pandemic in addition to having been pregnant during it and now a little one.

My in laws have been weird and odd for a while but we finally directly asked them to get vaccinated in response to a request to visit us in person. They refused over a two hour phone call saying itā€™s the End Times and Satan made the vaccine in order to cull the population. They earnestly believe this and warned his brother not to get the vaccine because itā€™s the mark of the beast. Lol did not try to save us but now said weā€™re going to die and they need to be alive to take our daughter they never bother to ask about.

I had to yell for 20 mins to get them to apologize and retract their statement because they kept giving me a ā€œIā€™m sorry youā€™re upsetā€ instead of ā€œIā€™m sorry I said thatā€ because any personal responsibility over what they say is out the window. ā€œThe words just come outā€ according to his mother. Theyā€™ve told my brother in law they believe in that fear hormone being harvested from children and children trafficking theory.

They demanded to know if my husband believes in God and told us theyā€™re so disappointed and that itā€™s just too much for them to know heā€™s not a Christian. They were generally boundary stomping asshats before this but this new worldview has wiped out any common ground. We took a break from contact from them for a week and they said they considered driving to our home to put letters in our mailbox because they had things to say.

They constantly post things to social media suggesting thereā€™s a war against darkness and saving your family or that people being safe are brain washed. They have these sources that claim covid is nothing and wonā€™t be convinced otherwise.

I have anxiety over what theyā€™ll do or say next to us and especially surrounding them being around or in contact with my daughter. I donā€™t know what to do about it and Ive considered leaving my husband over it honestly.

How is anyone else handing this????? Any advice???? I feel so trapped.
