[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Okay, you need to stop with using your teen sons as an excuse here. They're old enough to be let in on what's going on: "Listen, Grandma is not someone I want in our lives. She's been very hurtful, and it's important that I set some clear boundaries. She's invited herself here for Thanksgiving, and I've told her she can't come. What questions do you have for me?" [/quote] They absolutely know the deal and they just don’t want conflict although they know why DH and I got to this point with her.[/quote] They're teens. You're not doing them a favor by coddling them. Model strength instead. Teach them how to deal with your mother. [/quote]
