[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you need to work hard to steer your conversations away from child related things. Talk about work, tv shows, trips you’ve taken, plays you want to see, what’s going on in the world, etc. Try to connect at an adult level about adult things so that the child related things that stress you out don’t come up as much.[/quote] +1. Change the topic as gracefully as you can, or just take a bathroom/drink break. Also, don’t take it personally as it sounds like the husband is a highly anxious person and doesn’t have anyone else to compare and one-up with. You just happen to be the lucky one. Limit it to one vacation a year and try to do other things with the mom who seems to have more EQ[/quote]
