“She was SO offended and upset that she just got red in the face and started packing the mugs very upset and said she wouldn’t bother us again.”
She attempted to let her sister-in-law know that she was trying to say the kids don’t bother her, but perhaps they could limit their gift-giving.
She then suggested they get the children an iPad to draw on instead of making so many crafts.
“She grabbed the box and was making this really melodramatic exit and said like, “I’ll let the kids know that their auntie doesn’t want their mugs they made with LOVE and wants her nice little Target mugs instead,” she continued.
Her sister-in-law has since filled her mother-in-law in on what happened. Her mother-in-law believes she should have graciously taken the mugs from the kids and tossed them in the garbage on the down-low instead of causing a scene.
She doesn’t really see an issue with how she handled things, and she had no problem trying to get the kids to place all of their creative efforts into something else that she would appreciate more.
Do you think what she said about the kids and their crafts was too harsh?
