[quote=Anonymous]My MIL is a gossip. I am turned off by it, but I don't call her on her atrocities. No one is off limits - dead or alive, young or old, "friend" or no,t you get the idea. What is a good way to shut this down? I thought of saying: "and what does/did so-and-so think of you?" or "that's not very nice" or "mom always said, if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything". I feel it would have no effect on her, she's kind of brutal and rather smug. She actually thinks she is funny! What would you say to her, if anything? I am opposed to making faces, I fell like it is behaving life a petulant child, much like her. Frankly, I don't respect her, after hearing many years of this, and I suspect she does not like herself. Ideas? [/quote]
