[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Every time your child does something less than ideal, say "He does take after his dad, doesn't he?" Burps at the table, leaves his shoes in the middle of the floor, whines, whatever the inlaws might find unsavory. Take that opportunity to agree with the inlaws. [/quote] I'd probably lean in this direction -- after cultivating a demeanor of loving fondness. Mostly, though, I'd ignore it, and imagine that at least some of this is having known their son at the same age as the kids, and some of it being proud parents -- as in, while they're saying good things about their son, they might not be really conscious of also not saying good things about you. I'd shrug most of it off, but have a bit of fun with it in line with the PP's suggestion. [/quote]
