Help me prove my boyfriends cousion wrong about our daughter.?

Question

reason i am asking this here is i got nothing in family.

prove to my boyfriends cousion something. Okay i have a daughter and his cousion thinks she is the aunt. I kept telling her she is a cousion not an aunt. She only has 2 aunts my sister and my boyfriends sister. Who is right?

Answer 1

your boyfriends cousins relation to your daughter?

i believe that would be a second cousin. your right. an aunt is the sister of the parents. thier children are her cousins. your boyfriends cousin would i think be a second cousin.

Answer 2

Who cares this is something simple and you need to learn how to pick your fights. My cousin has a son and he calls me Aunt Sydney sometimes....I don't mind is mother doesn't mind, The same should go for you.

Answer 3

Aunts & Uncles are just the parents' sisters & brothers. So you are right, his cousin would be your daughter's cousin (I think it might be a second cousin, or cousin once removed, maybe).

Answer 4

She would be your cousin if you guys got married and she is your daughters 2nd cousin.

Answer 5

you are your sisters and your husbands sisters are your daughter`s aunts next time she says that just tell her to shut up and just ignore her she is a idiot

Answer 6

No technically she is the 2nd cousin but depending if they are close like siblings they my feel she's an aunt i know my daughter calls mine and my husbands close friends and cousins aunts and uncles

Answer 7

Your right your sister and your boyfriend's sister is her aunt.  But you know there are culture who believe that a cousins child is their niece/nephew.  Probably she came from that culture. You have to ask her.  Don't you worry about it, as long as she loves your daughter that is very good.  Having a lot of aunt is wonderful and a lot of gifts during holidays:-}

Answer 8

An Aunt is the sister or sister-in-law of the mother or father of the child.

BUT in our case we call my cousins "Uncles" and "Aunties" when referrring to them. It is used as a term of endearment. In the same way your parents may have told you to call family friends "Uncle" or "Auntie".

Answer 9

She would be your daughters second cousin

Answer 10

It is your daughters 2nd cousin. Not an aunt. But its not really a big deal really I have a best friend that my kids call thier aunt, and they already have 5 aunts.

Answer 11

the only aunts the child would have is any sisters of either the mother or father.

a cousin to the father or mother would be a second cousin to the child

hope i helped =]

Answer 12

Well, by blood...  cousin.  But, I call my cousin my aunt and she calls me her neice.  I guess its the age difference.

Answer 13

You're right, she's a cousin!

Answer 14

You are right. She would be the baby's first cousin once removed (the technical term), but yes a cousin.

Answer 15

Aunts and Uncles are made up of you and your husband's siblings, not cousins.
