[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I plan to make an effort with my DIL and grandchildren, to be [b]warm and welcoming - not just saying I "support" them, but actually showing it.[/b] And not just doing something once a year for bragging rights to my bridge club cronies. That will be progress from the true colors my MIL showed me. [/quote] Yes, and you DIL may very well interpret your actions as intrusive and smothering.[/quote] Huh? For making an honest, consistent effort that is not contradicted by other actions? Ladies, this is what I mean (PP) by a hostile MIL. Anyone who looks for fault is not someone you want to rub elbows with. [/quote] +1. Your DIL might be very independent and your efforts may not be welcome. [/quote]
