THEY should remember that too!<BR/><BR/>It was not the noodle but something else that went up his nose. Anyway, he seemed perfectly alright today so we skipped the doctors. No complains of any pain what-so-ever. But we will remember this incident should he ever complain of any pain in the head, throat, or lungs.<BR/><BR/><BR/>p/s- what's IYKWIM?Moomykinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02645551241688174119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8868408811034508455.post-39062507327028142562008-04-09T23:36:00.000+08:002008-04-09T23:36:00.000+08:00ann,You know, I have actually thought of this as G...ann,<BR/><BR/>You know, I have actually thought of this as God's grace in helping me to want to move.

Either because FIL would ask all kinds of questions beyond the setting of the show, or will make comments like, "Why that guy so stupid and did not do such and such or say thus and thus." And MIL will be very upset because she can't follow the dialog.<BR/><BR/>It can be so ridiculously funny or frustrating.Moomykinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02645551241688174119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8868408811034508455.post-80690767843756947902008-04-09T23:28:00.000+08:002008-04-09T23:28:00.000+08:00a gift from god,Thank you.

It's just his attitude that really drives us up the wall. There's a long story behind this, so I shall try to leave those skeleton in it's closet...and hope they'll not jump out on my blog buddies.

Having kids always changes the dynamics of your relationship, in that they need to realise that you aren't just a daughter in law but the MOTHER of thier grandchildren IYKWIM....hissychickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06622021500607110250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8868408811034508455.post-45737610753134547802008-04-09T12:33:00.000+08:002008-04-09T12:33:00.000+08:00Oh...I know how that feels...fume away anytime you...Oh...I know how that feels...fume away anytime you want. Sometimes we really have to put our foot down. Especially when they do it to the kids directly. At least if they are just 'scolding' or telling us off, we can just "mmmm" it away!<BR/><BR/>I am happy for you that change is coming soon then in the next few months...though the lost will be mine!Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08918067380739615712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8868408811034508455.post-75519863798807999642008-04-09T11:19:00.000+08:002008-04-09T11:19:00.000+08:00My MIL, and to a large extent, Hot Mummee too, hav...My MIL, and to a large extent, Hot Mummee too, have this "thing" with their communications skills: They start a (complete) sentence but with missing context.<BR/><BR/>It's like if you see a screenplay dialog, MIL and Hot Mummee would take the 3rd or 4th line and start talking to you with it, expecting that you already know what they are thinking about or is aware of the subject already on their minds. <BR/><BR/>Then, both parties get frustrated for asking what they are talking about, and recounting the story from the start again (from the start <B>again</B> from their point of view!)JLowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00644532623648923417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8868408811034508455.post-32420450608137485942008-04-09T10:48:00.000+08:002008-04-09T10:48:00.000+08:00Hi Kathie, I guess quite a few of us have similar ...Hi Kathie, I guess quite a few of us have similar experiences like yours, either with in-laws or out-laws.<BR/>They of course with age on their side tend to be 'know alls' sometimes...but to me I believe grandparents even with their good intentions should let their daughters or sons bring up the kids their way.<BR/>Oh well, but they do come in useful if you have a party to go to, *wink*. Happy baby sitters, ha ha.<BR/>Stay easy and watch you don't burn somebody's underwear, ha ha, best regards, Lee.
