[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here- though some examples might be useful. For instance, MIL will ask 1) So, how much weight have you gained!? (in pregnancy- I honestly don't thing she's being bitchy, but I don't want to talk about it) [b]"I really don't remember"[/b] 2) So, C section or a vaginal birth [b]"I'll work with my doctor on that"[/b] 3) ME: I don't want you to put make up on my baby HER: But we have so much fun! Why not!? THere's nothing wrong with it. [b]"I am very uncomfortable with that, and she is my baby."[/b] <---- assertiveness necessary here, and if she pushes, [b]"please don't question my parenting decisions."[/b] 4) HER: But [my SIL's kids, her grandchildren by her daughter] are allowed to... [b]"I suppose that works for them - but not for us."[/b] [/quote][/quote]
