[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why don't you try learning Cantonese? It would be a good way to butter up the ILs and it would make them think twice about talking in front of you. You can repeatedly ask them to say something again or ask the meaning of words or just generally gum up their conversations in passive-aggressive ways, while telling them that you are trying to learn their language so you can be more included in their family. [/quote] Why would or should she be even remotely interested in "buttering up the ILs"?? They're obnoxious. I'd cut them off and be done with it. You can even refuse access to the kids on the grounds that you don't want the kids learning to be so disrespectful and incredibly ill-mannered to people. It's outrageous to expect OP to let her kids watch the ILs disrespect her, let alone do it repeatedly.[/quote]
