I really had relatives angry cause my kids didnt want to kiss them and I would not pressure them into it. Like my mom did not talk to me the whole day. Everything is a personal attack to them, even not wanting to kiss people they see once a year.
SAME HERE
I honestly think they were more upset by my complete lack of fucks about it than the perceived insult from my child. Asking "Why in the world would I make him hug you??" like it's the stupid question that it is was very offensive! ๐
to be fair, they did their best to beat defiance out of me when I was small, so I'm sure it was shocking that I wasn't willing to do that to ensure total compliance in the future
Oh yeah, I get that one a lot as well. My mother-in-law just completely refuses to understand that my daughter doesn't want to kiss her, and tries to bribe/threaten her every time. It's genuinely driving me insane, and frankly ruining the relationship my mother-in-law has with her own grandchild. My wife has also gotten in between them a couple of times and tried to tell her mom off.
