[quote=Anonymous]I would have liked to have been treated like a family member. In planning the wedding it was clear that I was just DH's +1 and not of any importance. She declined my invitation for dress shopping, and getting hair and makeup done with the bridal party. (and she loves shopping and beauty stuff). She goes through DH for everything and gets annoyed when he wants to run big decisions past me first (dates for gatherings and things). I get kicked out of pictures and told "just the family!" So...accept HER attempts to reach out to include you. Treat her as an equal to your child - they are a team now. If your daughter was newly engaged, what would you do for her? Offer to buy her something special or wear some heirloom etc? Offer to do that for you DIL. [/quote]
