[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She told my husband "when a son marries, a mother loses a son, when a daughter marries a mother gains a son". On the way to church on our wedding day. I hate her guts for doing this.[/quote] My MIL said something similar to me the day after the wedding. The worst part was that she said it so matter of fact, as if it wasn't offensive. [/quote] DIL here whose MIL never said that but I genuinely do not understand why this is so offensive. I find that it's pretty true that most men when they marry switch their first allegiance to their wife (as they should), get involved in their new family's life (once again, as they should), and will usually take their wife's side over their mother's in any dispute (which, once again, fine). I think that statement, cliché as it is, is pretty on-point.[/quote] I agree. It's a little 'poor me' for a wedding day, but There's nothing rude or mean about it.[/quote]
