[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let me guess. Your mother is black and your husband is white. The time to prep your husband about norms of elder respect was before you got married. That ship has sailed. Unfortunately, old black folks don’t really believe in boundaries lol. You will have to accept that your relationship with your mom is not going to be the same. [/quote] Yes, she (and I) are black. We talked about this a lot before getting married and many times since. It's the same thing over. She wants a level of respect and gives little in return. It's better sometimes than others. You give too much and here we are. She doesn't even honor the same rules she raised me by. [/quote]
