[quote=Anonymous]OP, you might feel better if you tried to see your in laws' trashy behaviors as existing on a continuum or if you were curious about the feelings, experiences and motivations that produce their observable behaviors. I say and do things that I know my more educated, richer and more accomplished sister and BIL judge as trashy. I can feel it when I am around them. The distancing, the facial expressions, the "above it all" demeanor. If they were curious instead of judgmental, my observable behaviors would make sense to them and they might feel less threatened by me. OP, try to connect with at least one time in your life you've been on the receiving end of the same judgment you hold toward your in laws. What did people who quickly judged you conclude about you that simply was not true?[/quote]
