[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“Mom, the kids need a place on the counter for their water bottles to stay while we’re visiting. Can you please pick a spot? Thanks.” “Mom, rather than tracking dirt in the house, the kids need to leave their shoes by the door. Do you want to just create a space or do you want them in a basket?” Stop trying to work around the passive aggressive comments. Just be direct with two choices for her and move on. If she complains, just say, “But the last time we talked on FaceTime, you were complaining that we hadn’t visited. [b]This is us visiting. We’re a full package that includes water bottles and shoes. You can do this.”[/b] 😬[/quote] All of this, but especially the bolded.[/quote]
