[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That would be super annoying to me too, and for those of you being harsh, I can see how OP just instinctively took the pencil without thinking about it.  I bet everyone here has done things about thinking about it too so STF up.[/quote]

Not to mention that the OP came here asking for advice about how to handle it better in the future...[/quote]

And OP got that advice. She also got some pats on the back from people who could use some lessons in social skills like  OP and her MIL.[/quote]

Your concept of good social skills are childish. I'd bet you prefer a passive or passive aggressive response to unacceptable behavior. I might have done the same as op out of shock. I absolutely would not allow mil to continue her behavior. I would have told her to stop and if she didn't I would, if it was feasible, either pack up and leave or move tables. I would let her know that her behavior was unacceptable. I wouldn't mince words. I want to teach my children not to pretend things are fine when they aren't. [/quote]
