Q: My daughter in law has informed me that she is Having Thanksgiving dinner and that she is just inviting HER side of the family, we are not invited apparently. She wants me to have our family dinner on Saturday so they can come to my house. My one son is in College and working and can only be home on Thanksgiving day so..If I agree to this I will have to make 2 Thanksgiving dinners ...I feel really put out by this but origianlly agreed to it. Now I am having second thoughts and think I will just have my Thanksgiving on Thanksgiving day and celabrate with my College age son and oldest son and family. I guess I would like to know what you all think...I don't want to be considered rude , but then again its HER rudeness that has caused this problem. Am I right?
A: One Thanksgiving meal is enough to cook for anybody. That is one rude& inconsiderate daughter in law.Tell her you have changed your mind, and if they would like to come over later for dessert that would be fine.And, don't feel guilty!!
