does DIL sound mad?

| The other day DIL shared meme on Facebook. Part of it mentioned hoe grandparents play favorites. I blew it off and made no assumptions. Well today I post a picture of my mother, myself, my daughter and granddaughter and the caption said 4 generations. DIL commented about how she wishes her daughter had been included. I explained to her that was a picture that was for her with her own mom. Well she deleted her comment and didn't respond. Is this her passive aggressive way of letting me know she's mad or am I putting too much into it? |

I really wasn't. I have several that include her daughter and her too. I just explained what I meant |

| Maybe she's feeling insecure. |

| That's not rude at all. Her side is not going to be included in everything. Time for her to grow up. |

| Get off FB. Nothing good comes from it. |

I'm sure you didn't post them on FB. Her daughter wasn't good enough. |

| You technically weren't rude, but you sure as hell weren't gracious. |

Then why do you care if she sounds mad? |

| Ouch. Your other granddaughter is every bit of that generation as the other. Wow. |

| She told you exactly what she would have wanted--for her daughter to be included. Whether you agree or not, that seems pretty direct and not passive aggressive. And although you may technically be correct, you don't seem very kind or gracious. |

Not rude. She doesn't get it and she really should have. I certainly wouldn't have pitched a fit if my sister-in-law had posed with her own mother and daughter. Maybe she deleted her post because she finally realized what the picture was and that her request was pouty and out of line.
Now that you know she may not understand how generations work in the family, you can respond with a simple "next time I'll give you a call when we're taking a picture" and then just let it go. |

| It was a generational shot, minus one. It's hurtful when grandparents play favorites. Signed, DIL who's kid is in second place. |
