[quote=Anonymous]Invite your mom with you to the in-laws, and reframe it in your mind. Your MIL is lucky you don’t have Tday at your house with your mom and whomever else you’d like to invite. See it as you and your mom are a connected team, and your mom will share with you a more objective/outside perspective on your MIL and whoever else displays any nonsense. Your mom is fortunate in being free of a relationship that wasn’t working. If you have a good, positive, proud attitude about your mom, then your MIL can’t pity either of you. If you are cringy and apologetic and embarrassed, then any attempt to pity you will stick. Do not see your mom earlier in the day and then have dinner without her. She has your first claim. [/quote]
