His Mom Found A Package

[peachybabie]

Hi! Just want some reassurance, maybe advice? I'm not really sure, I just wanted to share this and see if anyone has been in a similar 'epidemic' lol. My boyfriend bought me two little collar tags from online, one saying "spoiled brat" and the other saying "daddy's little girl". Super cute! Anywho, the package arrived to his house, and his mom decided to do a little snooping. She seen the daddy's girl tag, and gave the package to my boyfriend. All he said was that she 'thought it was funny' Whaaa? Whas that supposed to mean? What a great impression     

 

Edit: Just realized i should probably add this, he's 24 but lives with his parents because housing where we live is expensive   (Just wanted to make sure things are clear hehe) Why is his mom still snooping around his stuff? Not too sure, just a little protective, i guess.

I have a few collar tags, "His", "Little" and "Daddy's Girl". My mom has seen them before but really doesn't care because it's not her life so she doesn't interfere. Who really cares what his mom thinks, she didnt freak out so just let it go would be my advice. It sounds like a no issue to be honest.

Besides the fact that she should NOT have been snooping, maybe she was worried someone was pregnant? But I don't snoop in my kids stuff. I might ask, what did you order when something comes in, but that's just cause I am nosey. I don't force, I am just always curious what fun stuff someone might order. I tend to think maybe I am an exception after reading posts here and other places!

Hmm well if she's open to the idea everything should be fine although she shouldn't have been snooping (does she do it a lot in the lead up to Christmas)

Assuming she celebrates of course

People react to situations differently. It coulda actually been funny for him. 

And parents can have a hard time coming to terms with their kids growing up.

Maybe it was okay for her to look at his mail n stuff as a kid or teen, maybe he didn't really care.

But now that he's an adult and got a private life the boundaries need to be explained from him to her?

 

Idk. There's lots of reasons she could be looking. Should she? Probably not. Is it a big deal? Not really. He lives with his parents, she obviously doesn't have a sense of what's private for her kid, and if she persists after he reiterates that he doesn't want her opening his mail then she's a kinda poopy person. 

 

But, he's living with them because he can't afford to live elsewhere. These are the tribulations, unfortunately. lol 

 

And he said he thought it was funny. So it doesn't sound like it caused any major issues.
