[quote=Anonymous]OP here. I want to add that we have always celebrated Mother's Day for MIL. When she is with us, she is taken out to a very nice place for lunch. Depending on the year, flowers, small gifts, etc. MIL is not being deprived because of my lack of interest in Mother's Day.. DH has always had a mom who does what she wants. He deals with it by not noticing. He didn't even notice things like uninvited visits until I started pointing them out. We are now talking about it more and he understands. He talked to her this time about the tickets being bought without checking in with him. It really is part of a larger pattern. I think if it was just Mother's Day for me that she insisted on, I'd definitely let it go. And yes I've adopted all sorts of American traditions and the kids do some from my home country too. So does DH. Its really not an issue. We pick and choose all the time. [/quote]
