[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your mother in law might be a candidate for a gift like storyworth. She obviously wants to talk about her family history more, stories from your husband’s childhood and about her dead relatives - maybe you should find a productive way for her to get those stories written down, or encourage your husband to video tape her when she starts telling the stories and archive them somewhere. [/quote] +1 You think these stories are boring, but your kids might really love to hear them someday, but she won't be around to tell them. (My kids think stories about parents and grandparents as children are fascinating.) She might find it flattering, too, and it would channel the behavior. [/quote]
