[quote=Anonymous]She hasn't apologized because she doesn't think she did anything wrong. There are people in the older generation who think they can say and do anything to their kids/their spouses and it'll have to be tolerated. It's very new for adult kids to stand up and tell their mom/MIL that they have to apologize for their wrongs. Not sure if it has to do with narcissism or personality disorder or simply how things were -- the elders were tolerated no matter what. I stood up to my MIL (and apparently I was the only one ever to stand up to her) and she hasn't talked to me in 20 years. Hasn't seen grandkids either. So for women like this, it's the hill to die on. Yes, it's precisely the idea of strict hierarchy that the other poster described, she is on top and will never admit doing anything wrong. [/quote]
