I know that there isn't anything I can do about this. I'm just overwhelmed I suppose. Ken & his mom were invited to my sisters for thanksgiving dinner. This is the first time my familiy will be meeting her. Ken said he was a little nervous about it, but didn't really specify why. Both the "moms" meeting is never comfortable anyway. His mom is a nice lady all of the 3 times i've met her. I didn't see a problem coming. My sister has a 4 year old that can be a little wild, but what 4 year old isn't from time to time? Well, I thought all had gone well. but at dessert my sister rushed everyone out. I didn't know if her son got on her nerves or what. Things seemed "ok"... Then this past thursday night, my mom calls. First it was idle chit-chat and then she brought up christmas, which we are having on sunday instead of monday cuz my sisters husband is working. The next thing I know, my mom is yelling how that crazy b*tch is not welcome! HUH? She goes on to tell me that the reason my sister rushed us out what she couldn't take Ken's moms barbs anymore. I listened for a while then decided to call my sister and see what really happened and WHY am I hearing this 3 weeks later? My sister tells me that while her son was running around, Ken's mom told her to "smack that kid and get him in control, or maybe you just need Super Nanny".. :10: .. Maur said that during the entire time, If I wasn't around, she's make these snotty remarks! I know she did it.. She also told Ken "this kid is louder then my brothers 2 kids put together".. oy.. and yes my sister heard that too. This is the FIRST TIME this woman has met my family. I would never go to someones house and try to tell them how to raise their kid. She had no idea if the child is special needs or anything. She did know that my sister had a child.. so she WAS aware before she got there. Come on, he's FOUR years old! Holidays are very exciting! My sister said that she rushed us out because she wasn't going to let someone she just met make her cry in her own house.
I can't believe it. I know it happened.. I talked to ken about it and he said it was one reason he was worried about the whole meeting. But he had HOPED that since he told his mom about the kid, that there wouldn't be any problems. Things were FINE for the first half an hour.. no one knows what happened. We think she might have been overwhelmed or whatever, but she just made this dumb comments.. Ken was washing the dishes and my sister came in to help, his mom tells her how nice of her to come in when things are almost done..uhhh, yeah..
Now she is NO longer welcome. My mom said this woman will NEVER cross her path again. Ken and I are really wanting to get married too, this makes for an uncomfortable reception!!!
