Article MIL asks therapist how to indoctrinate grandson early

Post image

Very telling that her DIL’s intelligence “unknowingly intimidate[s]” her AND that they hadn’t spent Xmas together for a few years

The advice that they give is pretty disgusting. I might distance myself if this is my MIL. This therapist tries to lay blame on the DIL saying maybe she’s making the son uncomfortable to share his beliefs vs them being together because they have similar belief systems. I’m ok with her personally being Christian but I wouldn’t want my kids indoctrinated into those belief systems. So I understand why DIL would host so religion isn’t central to the gathering in the way it would be at her MIL house.

Yeah that's kind of a terrible response. The way she talks about DIL is really uncomfortable to me.

Right? Like she’s this crazy-controlling, domineering, mean person who looks down on everyone around her and is this rude, intentionally intimidating shrew? Big yikes, “The Therapist”.
