[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Something also that is interesting is that sons and their parents can't communicate. Whereas mother of the bride likely has no trouble discussing things with her DD. I see this over and over and over again. Why is everyone raising sons that can't communicate? My inlaws are fantastic communicating with their daughters, but when it comes to their son, they don't say anything. I'm not easily offended or a bad DIL either. [/quote] Really though? You don't know the WHY of this? Sorry, this may be sexist but most engaged guys think with their male parts. And the last thing they want to do is get their soon-to-be wife upset. And smart mothers of sons KNOW this. So sure, she could ask her son. And if he's a mama's boy, he'll try to bend over backward to please his mom and will say to finacee "hey, we need to add two more couples for my mom, okay?" and if bride is fine with it then it's cool. But if she isn't then she will manipulate groom into thinking this is the meanest most thoughtless thing MIL could have ever done...and he'll be backed into a corner and forced to 'side" with his soon to be bride. This is just not going to end well for MIL. Daughters and moms have an entirely different relationship. They just do.[/quote]
