Dear Jean,
What do you do with a meddling mother-in-law who can't keep her big nose out of family matters, especially when it comes to her son, grand daughter, and daughter-in-laws' daily lives?
Signed,
Invaded in Inverness
Dear Invaded,
Maybe you need to look at this from a different perspective, a mother's perspective, and then you'll be able to see that what looks forceful and "meddling", is actually keeping your family from irrepairable psychological damage done by you or anyone on your side of the family fence. A mother never does more than she's asked unless she's never asked in the first place.
Jean
I hope that helps all you moms who just don't know when to say when or how to say no to anything that never included you in the first place.
Until next time, love with an open heart, learn with an open mind, and talk with an open mouth.
