[quote=Anonymous]I've been a bitchy SIL and DIL. I've excluded them from stuff. It was mostly in reaction to how they initially treated me (plus some weird stuff with my kids after they were born), but I've now (for the last year), taken a different, really disengaged, detached approach. I just nod and smile, don't get into details, don't react to criticism, try to go with whatever they want, and keep busy even on visits (offer to do ALL the dishes, vacuum their house , fold all their laundry or go grocery shopping). I find that it really helps my general mood to just not allow myself to get baited. [/quote]
