[quote=Anonymous]OP-I do think your ILs are rude. Perhaps they explain it to themselves that there is an intimacy with your DH that would be lost communicating in a second language but their cutting you off and exclusion doesn’t need translation. The thing you ought to make clear to your DH is that you will insist your child(ren) when in group settings speak in the language you all have in common as you’ve said they do know it. Its wonderful that your kids may pick up Catonese but its more important that they learn how to participate in polite society. And if the ILs continue to treat you as if you don’t exist or matter let your DH know you will not subject your children to this level of disrespect meted out on you. [/quote]
