[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My parents are immigrants and I would never say that to my parents even if that’s what I was doing. We simply don’t have that buddy, wink-wink kind of relationship. Doesn’t seem appropriate in our culture.[/quote] Mine are also but complete opposite. It’s not wink wink. Alcohol is not taboo at all and no one would think anything of the grandparents watching the kids so the parents can relax and drink. [/quote] +1. My MIL is East African and she is always trying to push us out the door to go get drinks; “let me watch the kids so you can go to a bar and have drinks and go dancing, stay out late!” I’m not a big drinker but I love that it’s an option and that she always makes a big pot of “hangover soup” in the morning when we do go out lol [/quote] Your MIL sounds lovely![/quote]
