[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Why can't you just tell your mom to back off without revealing anything specific? Suggest that if they don't have kids yet it's either because they don't want them yet (or maybe one of them does and one of them doesn't), or because they do want them and they haven't been able to yet. Whatever the answer is, it's not helpful or kind or appropriate to raise the subject.[/quote] This seems like a good approach to me. Even before I had my own difficulties TTC or knew about others', I always thought the sort of approach you describe your mom as having was just rude (if not well-intentioned). I think you can totally tell her to back-off. The challenge will be figuring out a time to do it that is natural (ie I'm assuming when your sister isn't around).[/quote]
