I already know the answer but I'm just curious to find what others think. My MIL called me today and asked me how much we were given as a wedding gift from a particular family. Her reasoning was that their son is getting married and she needs to know how much of a gift to give him.
I was appalled by this. I called my mom and she was also appalled.
I don't remember how much or what they gave us but even if I did still have the record I wouldn't have told her. I suggested she just give whatever she was comfortable with giving. She then suggested that I just want her to look like an idiot so I wasn't going to tell her on purpose. Well, she does idiot all by herself.
Was being appalled the correct response or is this something that goes on elsewhere and just not in my family?
