[quote=Anonymous]If you want to address this to acknowledge your behavior but also hers, say this: "Barb, this is hard for me, so bear with me. At the recital the other day, you put me in an unfortunate spot. I was already feeling sheepish that my family had 4 audience members there when other families were limited to 2. I know your tickets were ones that would have gone unused by Susan, but to other families it likely just looked as if our family was flouting the rules. Then you came back stage, were asked to leave and didn't follow that request. That incident created stress and frustration in the moment. I wish I hadn't spoken to you so sharply. I regret that. I just need you to understand how I found myself at that point. I'm very grateful that you love your grandchildren so much and want to be involved. I just need to ask you to cooperate with me.
