[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds like SIL was insensitive about the way she communicated this. Perhaps there is a reason she feels defensive about it. Maybe she's been wanting to do X Y Z for Xmas for years but doesn't feel "allowed" to have her way and this is her way of clumsily setting a boundary. Just be there for your mom and don't get involved in your SIL drama.[/quote] SIL is nice. She was as nice about it as you can be. But the premise is of course rude. And I know she would never say such a thing to her own parents.[/quote] Her parents are probably more agreeable to celebrating the holidays at a mutually agreeable date. You said it yourself - your brother is a pushover - she had to do what was best for her family since your brother wasn’t stepping up. [/quote]
