[quote=Anonymous]I'm planning/coordinating the baby shower for my SIL and she's starting to get controlling. How do I politely tell her to relax? She was like this with her wedding, everything needing to be perfect and not letting anyone else handle any tasks, that it got so bad that she gave herself heart problems. While I appreciate having feedback on what she wants or doesn't want because it is really helpful, it's starting to feel like I'm getting dictated to. I'm happy to host the shower for her but if she's going to say it must be this theme, these colors, decorations, here's the menu then it feels like I'm just a checkbook. I'm trying to find the right words to say, I love you, I will make this special for you and not make this some gaudy affair, so please provide ideas on what you would like and definitely not like, but please don't control this and let someone take care of you![/quote]
