[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes- I agree. I need better pat answers. When I get into a situation with her, I find myself feeling like I have to explain again or defend myself/my decision. I catch myself doing it and then I stop and end the conversation. I'd do much better if I had better responses planned or in hand. What others can I use?[/quote] It's so hard. We all fall into these rhythms we have created with our parents. OK other answers that are non-confrontational but final: (You should seriously make a list and keep it with you when you talk to her). "We'll think about that." "I understand." "I'll talk about it with DH." "I hear you." "Got it." [/quote]
