[quote=Anonymous]You may see this as a rude reaction. On the other hand, he may have seen his mother emailing a picture of a vacation home as a passive aggressive controlling guilt tripping "code" experience from her that triggered a massive wave of anger and panic. I find this a lot in my relationship with my mother and especially here on DCUM. Those who have not grown up with controlling parents will look at a situation -- grandma prepares a nursery in her home for the new baby -- and respond "How sweet OP, can't you just thank her?" and OP is panicking and angry. Those of us who grew up with controlling/borderline/passive aggressive parents know what these experiences are like and the feelings they trigger. It's not your place to feel guilty when your husband is rude to his mom, or even to perceive this situation as your husband being in the wrong. You need to look at this "scene" as part of a lifelong drama. Step back, OP.[/quote]
