[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My MIL always acts like she's the hostess even when she's just a guest. Especially at my house.

"Tim, there's coffee." (Yes, coffee I made, in my home, and Tim has two eyes and a nose and can already tell that there is coffee.)

"Everyone, go to the table and we'll say the prayer." (Actually, my husband is trying to round people up to the living room and has a plan of something that will make everyone more comfortable--not everyone in our family/friend group is of the same religion/or believes in a higher power.)

"Let's start cutting the pies" (actually, we prefer to wait at least an hour to get a head start on the dishes and give people a little time to digest and get ready for the dessert phase)

DH finally a few years ago asked her to move out of my seat at the end of the table. She always sat opposite him until finally he said, "Mom, that's Anna's seat." [/quote]

I told my own mother that if she sat my BIL at the head of the table in my house again, she would be celebrating on the front porch alone.  My husband sits at the head of the table in my house.  I sit at the other end or my father does.  [/quote]

Who cares where everyone sits? No wonder some of you cannot get along with your family. [/quote]

I don’t care where people sit, but it’s so tiresome to listen to people negotiate for 10 minutes. Place cards all the way!![/quote]
