[quote=Anonymous]Time for a serious sit down talk although I will warn you that I think it's going to be really hard to get her to change her behavior.

There are always moms like this. Some are living vicariously through their children and others make the excuse that they are acting like this because they "just want the best" for their kids. I think living in a wealthy area among other wealthy people contributes. You say that the area you are in is "laid back." That is your perception, but I bet if you scratch the surface that's not the reality.

I think your wife is going to continue to do this kind of thing whether you like it or not. But you can at least have the conversation and also call her out if you hear her telling your kids some garbage about “oh, they’re quite a bit different in the way they dress and carry themselves, let’s ask so and so instead.”

I'd encourage you to get your kids involved in volunteering or something they can do with just you - hiking, camping, a sport - so you have some influence outside of her presence.[/quote]
