[quote=Anonymous]I would try generalizing the comments (both when ILs make them and when the cold repeats them), eg: “Larla will be such a good mommy” reply with “Maybe she will! I bet she’ll be a really good lawyer with how she always talks daddy into an extra cookie!” “Girls will get sick from the cold” reply with “Yes, everyone could get sick from the cold! That’s why it’s important to wear your socks!” Sometimes the improv role of “yes and” is a good way to deal with parenting advice/input you disagree with but don’t want to start drama about.[/quote]
