[quote=Anonymous]I have been dealing with my mom for 43 years so I know how to handle her. I know when to push back and I know when it's not worth it and it's a waste of my time..... I would never expect my dear husband to have to jump through a million hoops or play mind games with her just to figure out when Christmas is and what we are eating. Does that mean he never talks to her? No, but it means that logistics and some things are just better dealt with the family you grew up with. I get along well with my mother-in-law but my husband can cut the crap and get right to the point with her.... I can ask her the same question 12 times and she will him and her and give me a different answer each time.... Yet when he says Mom I need to know now she suddenly comes up with an affirmative answer. It works for us. If that doesn't work for you, don't do it. [/quote]
