I often have to "...Ahh, yes, our mother's concerns. I often have to "teach" my mother about there being something known as tact. "Think before you speak". Obviously our mothers are bothered by a great deal of our lifestyle choices...fear of the unkown or perhaps it's something so far removed from their own ideals. I'm intrigued by what exactly bothers your mom about their hair? Does their hairstyle embarrass her? Does she think the look causes or might cause the boys emotional pain or harm? Is it a reflection on her or them or you? Social behaviour is fascinating. My MIL carries the most disappointing tone in her voice when I tell her that in our house, Christmas is over on Boxing Day. Since the dinner on Christmas Day is like the holiday finale, everything gets put away the next day and we're done. This isn't what she would do, if it were her. I don't understand how she can be so completely affected and disappointed, by my choice to end the holidays on the 26th, but she is.Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07118322735091078605noreply@blogger.com
