Maybe not too complicated to understand

[Michael Mc C]

I have always gotten along with MIL although there are moments, of course. She is one of the people in our lives, however, that are crafting their advice for the audience. I never understood that. If you have an opinion, and someone asks for it, give it. Don't tell me, or W, what you think we want to hear! We're not kids - well, I'm not.

I set the record straight with her though. She is very big on the "no matter what happens, you will always be a family and you have to make sure that you minimize the pain on the kids."

Okay, I know that. I don't want my kids to hurt either. There are certain things the other half of this blissful union should be doing as well, to minimize the pain on the kids. One small item that comes to mind is ending the f*****g affair and focusing on the family for once!
