[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Posters who are supporting SIL did not pick up on the fact that [b]SIL wouldn't shut up about it. That makes her in the wrong[/b]. Also, and this seems so obvious but the Southern Belles can't accept it apparently, but if Susie is fine with Susie and not Aunt Susie, then the kid is fine!!! [/quote] This. If it’s cultural norm down there then at most a “Hey Larla, I think you meant to say Aunt Susie” should suffice, no one needs a lecture.[/quote] +1 A gentle correction is fine but to keep harping on it is rude and overstepping. [/quote] I don't get where the SIL kept up at it. OP didn't even respond but MIL got up to "diffuse" which seems like it escalated the situation (or spread it around?, but certainly didn't defuse anything, and then SIL left the room. Doesn't sound like this was a big deal yet OP is still fuming about the audacity of her child being reprimanded. Sounds like everyone was on edge and this gathering.[/quote] She said on the original post that MIL stepped in to diffuse but “SIL kept at it”. [/quote]
