[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You have any number of options, but I would choose one of these two: "At Grandma and Grandpa's house, we try to say 'yes, ma'am' and 'yes, sir.' It makes them happy." Or, you [b]get DH to come right out and explain to them that you are not requiring your children to say it, and that you two won't be enforcing it[/b].[/quote] Agree with this. And quite frankly, I severely limit the time my kids spend with anyone I know to be a racist. [/quote] Racist? Where did that come from? Although I believe in limiting their time with people that don't respect their parenting. [/quote] From the OP: [quote]But my MIL is a raging racist (I think it is very hard for her that DS' besties are Asian, Black and Latino and that we live in a diverse community and have diverse friends. She is used to only WASPy friends despite being highly educated and well traveled (over 200 countries!)). [/quote][/quote]
