[quote=Anonymous][quote]OP here. I think they would butt in regardless. They just have a really laaisez faire attitude towards money. I truly think it comes from having been diplomats where they were never expecting to stay here for very long plus a guaranteed pension plus the fact that their incomes weren't taxed... And their only point of comparison is the super rich super generous younger brother. And in their heads, I'm cheap and stingy bc I married a stingy man.[/quote] You can't make her not butt in, but you can certainly not respond to it - either emotionally or outwardly to her. She can say what she wants, but if she gets nothing but non-responsiveness in response, or repeating "We're not going to agree on this one, and I'm not going to discuss it further." It will become boring for her eventually, and she will give up.[/quote]
