Woman called 'cruel and pure evil' after buying all her grandkids matching pyjamas except son's stepchild
The woman has been criticised by Facebook users, including some people who grew up as step-children, for her actions.
A woman has been branded ‘cruel and pure evil’ after buying all her grandchildren matching pyjamas except her son’s stepchild.
The woman, whose name is not public but is from England, shared a photo of her grandchildren sitting in front of a Christmas tree while wearing their new loungewear.
Her daughter-in-law’s child from a previous relationship was the only one to not be dressed in the same patterned pyjamas.

All the faces of the children have been hidden.
An outraged friend of the family shared the Christmas picture with the Brierley Hill local Facebook group, where it was posted on Sunday with the caption: “Some people out there with no heart!”
The person who posted the picture in the group wrote: “A friend of mine is married. Mother in law bought matching PJ’s for all kids EXCEPT the one that doesn’t belong to her son. Is she wrong? [sic] the person who submitted the photo asked.
Commenters on Facebook were outraged by the grandmother’s actions and slammed her behaviour.
“How could you treat a child different to any other child, cruel and totally unacceptable. For me it’s all or none,” the Facebook commenter wrote.
Another social media user shared: “A child is a child regardless if that child is yours or not they should all be treated the same! What a shame for that child to have a family like that! How petty!”
While a third said: “I wouldn’t have given the other children the pj’s… some people are just damn right nasty! The mother needs to sort herself out and tell the mother-in-law where to stick them.”
Another outraged commenter declared: “Blood doesn’t make a family! I am a step-child myself, my son is also a step-child and I have a step-daughter. Family don’t have to share DNA just love! You have every right to be angry.”
Someone else penned: ‘A child is a child regardless if that child is yours or not they should all be treated the same! What a shame for that child to have a family like that! How petty!”
Some people also defended the woman, with one person writing: “'At the end of the day it's her choice. I wouldn't say I agree nor disagree as at then end of the day this happens a lot these days and people have their own way which some will see as wrong and others won't.”
