[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mercy! All these responses make me think more fondly of my perfume-wearing, snobby, disengaged, alcoholic MIL who thinks my DH hung the moon! I'm sensitive to this bc with just two young sons and no daughters, I'm destined to be loathed. But I don't wear perfume and like to play with kids, so maybe those future DILs will give me a pass....[/quote] :roll: Come in "expecting to be loathed," and you've pretty much written a self-fulfilling prophecy. Just be kind and polite. Like to a peer. Because your DIL WILL BE your peer. She will not be another child of yours. Be kind and polite and good things will come to you. Respect her, respect her household and her marriage and her mothering, stay out of her business, and you'll be fine. [/quote] This! Remember a daughter is a daughter for life. A son is a son until he takes a WIFE. [/quote]
