Re: good news gone wrong...

Please don't let her ruin your great news it is none of her business what either of your salaries are. She should realize each time either of you get a raise and/or a promotion it helps you both.

Congrats on your promotion and raise!!! Chat Icon

Ridiculous, but did you expect much different? She sounds pretty 'old school'.

Anyway CONGRATULATIONS, you deserved it!

Re: good news gone wrong...

CONGRATULATIONS, first of all.

I would never let MIL know what I or hubby make... none of her business. A raise is a raise, great for the FAMILY!!

Re: good news gone wrong...(edited)

Your MIL has WAY too much time to spend on worrying about what goes on in your household.

Congrats on the promotion!

Re: good news gone wrong...(edited)

Congrats on your raise! The less your MIL knows about your money and your DH's money....the better. That's a personal issue and she doesn't need to know about it....especially with that attitude!

We are living in 2005 not 1945....maybe she doesn't like the fact that you are making a lot of money and not being dependant on your DH. She will move on....CONGRATS...YOU GO GIRL!!!!! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Don't even pay her mind...tell her to get back on her donkey and go do laundry in the river!

I come from an old school family...you have to learn to ignore them!

Congrats and enjoy!!!!!Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

It sounds like she doesn't have a very fulfilled life that she needs to comment on how you serve her son and how much money you make. She may even be a little envious of the freedom that you have and the respect you obviously command from people outside your home.

CONGRATS OF THE PROMOTION AND RAISE!!! That's great. Focus on that!! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I responded by saying, "Well, I'm sure I can still give the money back!"



Chat Icon Chat Icon Did she have an answer for that?!



I should have said before -- Congrats on your raise!!!
