[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Whether a B or not or whether calling her a B or not, or who was right, wrong, justified, my breaking point would be both of them doing this in front of family and especially grandkids.  No matter what the circumstances, this is not what I’d want in front of family and my children, nieces or nephews.  To overlook it gives those kids the impression that it’s ok and permissible to let it happen to them in the future.[/quote]

+1. I especially don’t want my daughters raised to think it’s ok for a man to call them that word without apology, no matter what the man’s excuses are.[/quote]

NP who agrees with this. I think virtually any expression of anger/upset that wasn’t full on screaming or swearing would have been ok. You can apologize for the word choice without apologizing for your feelings. I also note OP said the MIL has apologized so I think it’s pretty fair to expect the other person to do the same for saying something unacceptable. [/quote]
