[quote=Anonymous]It's doctor, right? Tell her to get over it. You and DH should plan a response, something like: You - "MIL, John is never going to be a doctor. Ever. He's a great, successful software engineer, and there's no way he would even consider disrupting his chosen career. He is doing what he wants to be doing, he's providing very well for our family, and we are happy. Doctor isn't going to happen." Say this smiling. The DH chimes in with "Yeah, mom, what's with all the doctor stuff? I'm good at my job and it's my permanent job. Why isn't that ok with you? Let it go! Plus, you wouldn't want me operating on you anyway - I'd probably kill all my patients I'm so grossed out by blood and guts I'd just pass out." Be nice, be joking, be calm. But be very clear about it. [/quote]
