Dear Abby: Rude sister-in-law’s demands put damper on holidays
Rude sister-in-law’s demands put damper on holidays
At Christmas, Barb sends out an email detailing what we are and are not allowed to buy for their daughter.
Barb tells my mom that because her mother doesn’t have much money, Mom can’t spend more than her mother does.
Barb is extremely demeaning and hurtful to us.
[...] if her rude behavior extends beyond that, rather than take her on, the person you should “confront” about it is your brother.
[...] if the ceremony is a civil one, the “pleasure of your company is requested” is the preferred one.
The wording on your wedding invitation is not determined by whether you are being married in a church.
If the bride’s parents are hosting, then the phrase ‘the honor of your presence’ is correct.
[...] if you and your fiance (or other family members) are hosting the wedding, then the more modern terminology ‘the pleasure of your company’ is preferable.
