[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would just tell her she's being ridiculous and then just ignore. [/quote] That's what I'd do. "Mom, you're being ridiculous." I know it's popular to do the repeating thing, saying "these are our choices" etc., but I tend to think sometimes more of a harder reply is necessary. And those replies have a defensive tone, IMO. She's judging you, why not let her know what you think about her?" And the longer explanations only open it up to more discussion. But I also have a relationship with my mom that I can say that and all hell wouldn't break loose. I might use a different tack with my MIL. [/quote]
