[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH when I get worked up about stuff his mother says: “You can’t change a 70 year old woman. She’ll be gone (dead) before we know it, so let’s just move on and enjoy the time we have.”

DH has the patience of a saint with his parents and mine. [/quote]

My mother is almost 90 and hoing strong.  Your DH has decided to do nothing.  You may be grandparents yourself before you lose MIL.[/quote]

... or you could be the one who dies first, and then you've spent your whole life accepting people putting you down and [b]making you feel bad about your decisions[/b]. People die at the age of 30 or 40 for random stuff all the time.[/quote]

NP.  Oh, gosh, I feel sorry for you if this is what you believe.  No one can make you feel bad about your decisions; only you can do that to you.  When you are so sensitive that you cannot accept someone else's statement and move on then you are doing yourself a huge disservice.  You don't need to rebut or engage, simply smile and keep on going.  From your statement it appears as though you think that it makes you feel better to say something but in actuality all you are doing is continuing to dig at yourself kinda like picking at a scab.  PP, it is okay if someone says something that you don't agree with.  You don't have to take it to heart and you don't have to carry that burden.  Let it go.[/quote]
