They commented that it's obvious that she lets her mother walk all over her and control her. That you have to put mothers in their place or they will try to run your life. That mothers need to earn your respect that you don't just give it to them.
Obviously these women believe that all mother/daughter relationships are like this
All 5 of my daughters are very sweet, and I do not meddle in their lives. I make suggestions, they can take them or leave them. I trust that my daughters are capable of making their own decisions because I raised them to do that.
Now my DIL is disrespectful, and for the past 4 years she has been telling me what I should and should not be doing. And it has nolthing to do with raising kids. she lives in the UK. I never see her kids.
The last fight was she didn't like the way she was informed of the birth of my latest grand child and then she accused me of not having given her first kid a gift when it was born, and this escalated to her telling me she hated me, calling me a "stupid old lady" blocking all my emails and telling me I would never see my son or my grandchildren again..
The debate is. Should mothers and MILs be talked to this way or should they be respected just because they are your parents. |
Never Jeanie I feel weather They raised me or they raised my DH than they need respect! YEs I have a problem once-in-awhile with the MIL but I would Never yell cuss or deny her to see her grandchild.
And for my Mom I would never disrespect her. My lil sis said a cuss word infront of her just last year when I was down for a visit. I smacked her on the head an told her to say sorry.
Yes we are both grown married and have kid/kids but She is mom and needs respect
