[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't sulk.  Calmly say "Thanks for the hospitality" and leave.  They are rude people.  Would Miss Manners approve?  Clearly no.  Do not stick around for this.  Of course they'll complain about you. So what?  It is not okay for you to expose your husband to this.  Imagine they were saying this about one of your kids. Would your momma bear instinct put up with this?  Don't let them do it to anyone in your family.  Leave. [/quote]

I know.  But we were staying with them over Christmas - not DH, he was home working - so we couldn't just leave.  And yes, I used to have more of a mama bear reaction to things like this, and everyone said I was a bitch, so I backed down.[/quote]

No, you COULD leave. And THEY are being the bitches, not you. Stop putting up with this!  You're teaching your children to put up with people treating THEM like shit. You set the example for them. [/quote]

Theoretically we could have.  But we didn't have a car (flew in, drove their spare around).  I'm not making excuses, just pointing out that the line isn't always as easy people think.[/quote]

Yes you are making excuses.  You could have called a cab.  [/quote]

Again, we didn't have a carseat.  My parents bought one for me to use at their house.  Just stop - you don't know the background.[/quote]
