Hey , I'm so sorry you r going thru this. Not seeing you on mother's day bc mother in law more important. Nonsense . Sounds like the gf is a chip off old block of mom. Sounds like sons gf is a well....brat. idk best advice other than talk to your soon about how you'd like to be with him more , or make plans to take walks, lunches , etc things that don't break the bank. Invite son and gf or if gf doesn't come just son. Start to do all you can to make effort to be with son away from this so he can make sure it's what he wants . You are his mother , you deserve to be held high

Re: My dad is unable to dance with me at our wedding how do I still include him?
Ya know, I am kind of a dork like that, lol. I don't phrase it like that, but even when I use mild swear words in my posts, I'll asterisk some of the letters. Like this, s**t. I think it stems back to childhood guilt if I used a swear word, lol.
I wish the OP well, but it does seem like she's lived a fragile and sheltered life. I don't know if she's lived with her parents her whole adult life. But, if so, that's going to be a major adjustment and I hope she is ready for it.
So if we're talking alone, daughter in bed or whatever, about our language use or whatever, I will definitely say things like "don't use that word," or "we can't say the s/f/d/whatever word in front of our kids" even though no one is around to hear it. Most of our families are also anti-cursing so we will also describe curse words as "f/d/c/s word" or "blankety-blank" or "asterisk, ampersand, plus sign, at sign" in place of actually saying the word when describing an interaction or telling a story.
There's nothing like your kid tattling to your husband's mom.
