[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I support you a 100%! MIL needs to learn to filter her thoughts. This is what I had to do with my own mother. She learned. A reconciliation is probably in your future, OP, and all will end well, but only if you stand your ground for this Christmas. Your MIL needs to feel consequences otherwise she cannot learn. I entirely disagree with letting it go and re-evaluating later - that doesn't make any sense. Consequences need to happen right after the act, otherwise people have a hard time understanding why they happen. The more you wait, the less leverage you will have in the future.[/quote] Then she should have spoken up the minute she was offended and felt “gobsmacked” and called off Christmas right then and there. Now it just feels petty. [/quote]
