[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I never "feel guilty" about the outsized expectations, demands, and preferences of grown, able-bodied, well-resourced adults. They can manage themselves. They can choose to be mature, supportive, understanding, and relaxed, or not. When they choose to get wound up and jealous and immature and deliberately obtuse, that's really not my problem. We're going to make the decisions that are best for OUR family. Stay mad, Janet.[/quote] +1 Hear, hear! Accept people the way they are, and don't complain - you are not going to change anything for the better by complaining about whom your child chose to marry, and it makes you look REALLY bad. Be the adult, step up, and foster inclusion and warmth in the family - its your job as the elder. [/quote]
