[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Awww...let it go. My parents and ILs live in another country, and I miss them like crazy. My MIL called today and told me that she felt so bad that she could not send sweets for us when my DH visited them for a day last week. I told her that it was ok, and she replied "But you kids come after such a long time...and I kept thinking after he left that I could have made some more of his favorite dishes if I had more time!". She is 80 and in failing health and yet all she can think is to feed us or send us stuff that we do not use or need. I let all of her little idiosyncrasies go because her heart is in the right place, and it makes her so happy when we do things her way for these little things. [/quote] Who says OP doesn't let it go? She's for-fun posting about it here, not yelling at her mom. Your parents/ILs living in another country have nothing to do with this dynamic being funny/quiet/annoying for those of us who do experience it.[/quote]
