[quote=Anonymous]The sound of a parent reading is way better than the sound of someone’s one-sided work call or someone watching loud video news in a foreign language that I don’t speak or understand. But maybe just assume she had a migraine and was having a spectacularly sucky day. She was being passive aggressive and rude. I don’t think reading a book is wrong unless you misperceived how loud you were or were being really performative- my two pet peeves that I’m stuck with in my family. My DH doesn’t know how to speak softly and his attempts to whisper are actually louder than his normal voice. And my SIL is a performative parent and it is tedious to be in her presence when she’s “on”. Maybe you accidentally did one of those?[/quote]
