[quote=Anonymous]My SIL asked my mom what she should call her. My mother: "D----" (her first name) SIL: "I could never do that! How about Mom?" My mother: "Well...ok..." She has told me she's uncomfortable with it. Worse, when introducing my SIL to people, she feels compelled by my SIL not to say daughter IN LAW and has just called her her daughter. It's a weird dynamic. My father doesn't care. My husband calls my parents by their names and they are fine with it. I think the whole practice is bizarre. If you and your spouse have the same "Mom" and "Dad" then you are brother and sister.[/quote]
