[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldn’t invite her either and would not tell her when these events are happening. Imagine she throws one of her fits at a school event. That would be so embarrassing for your son. Also, if she starts yelling at your son,  you need to protect him and tell her to leave immediately or you take your child and leave, regardless of what your DH does/doesn’t do. Your DH is a child of an addict, he has been groomed his whole life to accept these behaviors, doesn’t mean you have to accept it or allow it for your child. If she started criticizing my parenting, I would have no reservations to tell her she is last person to be passing judgment and tell her exactly why. You all need boundaries.[/quote]

Thank you. This is how I feel. I did one time. She was coming down on some parenting thing and I said something along those lines and got out of the car and didn’t talk to me for 4 months. She is quick to dish it out but so incredibly sensitive you can never mention something benign like “I’m sure you made some mistakes as a parent too” [/quote]
