[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can I ask you a gentle question, OP?

Why does it make you "so angry" just to hear you mother called "whacky" or "weird"?  I mean, I wouldn't want my family insulted either, but these don't seem like vicious insults to me.  They seem like light-hearted remarks from one's husband.

It seems to me that you might -- might -- have set up a system in which your family can do no wrong.  That might have created an incentive for your husband to kind of buck the system.[/quote]

And I'm not inclined to take your DH's side if he's being rude or disrespectful to them.  But you haven't given any specifics other than "wacky" and "weird".  (I love my MIL to death, but she is WEIRD).  why doesn't he like them?  Is there some history of conflict (perhaps considered distant past by you but not by DH)?  [/quote]
I was wondering the same thing, and OP doesn't seem to be open to the possibility that DH experiences her family differently than she does. But OP says DH will offer drinks to his family but not hers (at joint gatherings) - that is rude and disrespectful. [/quote]
