[quote=Anonymous]To 19:38, I know she didn't misunderstand. She was at my home when I was folding and putting them away to take to her home. She understood my intentions. Unfortunately only she and I were present when I had made my communication. I just wish she had double checked with me.

I wouldn't cut off ties with her, bc I can handle her going forward. I don't want to permanently cut off ties nor would DH go along with that. And I know she genuinely loves the kids.

She's pulled something like this before sort of. I was over once and my DH had left behind his wedding suit which fits him perfectly (a tux) which my parents had given as a wedding gift. It was in a "goodwill pile". I'm not even sure why it was there, nor had we realized. This tux cost well around $1500. I asked her what it was doing there? She informed me she was going to goodwill it, since it was so run down and old. I'm 33, and and was married 7 yrs ago. Tux is pristine and designer. Stunned I picked it up and told her it wasn't trash. I was naive back then but now in retrospect I realize she doesn't value what my parents or myself have paid for. I had never told DH of that incident bc I thought it was a mistake, and maybe she didn't know. Who throws out their children's wedding outfit without asking. I see a lot of what has been going on over the years differently now. Mind you we have never argued before and even in this situation I would describe my reaction to be shaken (almost to tears but clear in what I needed to express). I didn't let her lies make me second guess myself in fact I'm very proud and have no regrets of what I could have said or should've said.
