[quote=Anonymous]My in-laws are a bit like this and after 12 years of marriage, I no longer share anything with them nor solicit an opinion. I am normally known as a cheery, chatty, upbeat person, but not around my in-laws. My FIL has an odd, strange aversion to hiring anyone to do anything for him; we're talking plumbers, painters, tow truck drivers, ac repair, etc. He once had a very expensive set of golf clubs stolen from his car (MoCo) and refused (!) to call the police because he didn't want to file report and thus, put his neighborhood in a negative light. I now know better than to even mention that we hired someone to haul brush, finish our deck, etc. He goes all ballistic and hyper-critical. Point being. You are going to have to create some distance. Don't share and do not solicit their opinions.[/quote]
