[quote=Anonymous]You calling your MIL a 'bitch' speaks worlds...

You don't know how much the death of her dog bothers her. Only she knows that. She might not talk about it because it hurts too much. She might have gotten a new dog right away because she's hoping it will distract her. Etc. Don't judge people based on what you THINK is true.

She went from answering his questions to not wanting to talk about it not within one day but a longer period of time. Obviously it bothers her to constantly be reminded of her dead dog. Instead of blaming her for that and making your child look like an angel, try her point of view for a change? It's NEITHER your sons fault for asking continuously NOR your MILs fault for being bothered by it. You expect empathy from her but give none back it seems.

Try explaining to your son why grandma can not hear these questions anymore. Explain her pain, grief, that those questions constantly remind her etc. And then ask your son if he thinks he can go visit grandma without asking about the dog. He can ask YOU all he wants as long as grandma isn't around but as we all know it is very important for autistic (and all other) children to learn how others feel and try their best to respect those feelings, no?[/quote]
