[quote=Anonymous]At some point you just have to be ok with them being upset. Don't get into the mode where you are trying to get them see your very valid point of view. Just say "I can see you're upset about this" and stay neutral and then move on. Don't explain or defend yourself. They are looking for ways to make you feel bad and to give in to their POV. If you don't get into a back and forth about it, that can't happen. My MIL is a lot like this. We have learned to just shrug and say "ok" when she complains. I'm sure she talks trash about us but IDGAF.[/quote]
