[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thinking about what would happen if this went down in my family. Right or wrong, I continue to extend invitations to MIL as if the incident never happened. She's either a personality-disordered nutter, or she was having a really bad day/week/year/life and had an episode that she is embarrassed about. Either way, you come out of it as the graceful, reasonable, inclusive one. Let her behavior speak for itself. Play innocent. [/quote] The problem with this is that it hurts OPs kids if grandma throws another tantrum at their school. Seriously,that's really embarrassing for a kid. Think about how you'd feel if someone in your family threw a tantrum at a work party in front of your boss and colleagues... Would you keep inviting them to the holiday party if they embarrassed you last year? it's way worse for a kid. OP being the bigger person shouldn't come at her kid's expense. [/quote]
