[quote=Anonymous]The thing is, I can't laugh them off. The mom kept talking about "black deacons", "chocolate Santas (as in African American Santas", "darkies". These terms to me are so offensive! My FIL graduated from Harvard and my MIL has traveled to all continents yet is so close minded and bigoted. They made incessant comments about new money to my parents. About people that live beyond their means... My dad is a partner in a law firm and my mom works in arts administration. Both of them live very simply in a modest home in an inner suburb of a large city. My parents grew up very working class and have no tolerance for people who put down any job or person. My mom's family grew up in public housing on assistance so my MIL's comments are particularly infuriating.[/quote]
