[quote=Anonymous]MIL's insistence upon calling nearly every female under age 60 "a girl." So many stories about "that girl at the doctors office." Or, "the girl from my work." Also MIL has a weird way to refer to my relatives. In conversation with me, she never refers to my mother other than by using her first name. So, it's kind of jarring to hear my MIL ask me, "Hey, how's Muriel? Is Muriel leaving soon? I liked Muriel's Christmas card, etc." I'd say, "how's your mom?" Opposite with references to my only sister...MIL always says "your sister" and never her name or oddly, she might throw in, "your sister, Mindy."[/quote]
