"Welcome to WiseWomenUnite.com -- When adult children marry and leave home, life can sometimes get more complex instead of simpler.  Being a mother-in-law or daughter-in-law can be tough.  How do we extend love and support to our mothers-in-law, adult children, daughters-in-law, sons-in-law, and grandchildren without interfering?  What do we do when there are communication problems?  How can we ask for help when we need it without being a burden?  And how do our family members feel about these issues?  We invite you to join our free forum, read some posts... and when you're ready...share your challenges and wisdom."

Am I being crazy....

I doubt that you were thinking. It was a assumption. I trip over those quite often...sending love...

Me too.  I can trip, stumble and trip again.

Kind of like when my Sons were 12 and 14 and asked for an electric guitar and a drum set, respectively, because they wanted to learn how to play music. I'm all about the arts and what a wonderful idea.  I was so proud of them for wanting to learn to play something..........YEAH RIGHT!  DUH!

In my defense, me and DIL's Mother had a couple of rounds while they were dating.  Along the lines of one time she told me I better not ever embarrass her daughter again.  I replied, it will not happen again as long as she doesn't stomp her foot, roll her eyes and stomp off at me in front of 14 other parents like a 4 year old, causing me to tell my Son later, in front of her, if she ever treats me like that again, she will not be welcome back at the house.  Guess Mom didn't like my answer.  There were a couple of more that were worse.....ok I have no defense....I'm not going to lie....I enjoyed it.

The Muffin, here's hoping your DS figures it out soon and you all can find a workable balance.
Respect ... is appreciation of the separateness of the other person, of the ways in which he or she is unique.
