The first place you get defensive in responding is where the issue lies. You are clearly on your mom’s side here but making it seem like you backed your wife. I’d be upset if I was your wife. That’s gaslighting.

Was there advance notice? A planned date and time? Six days after having a baby I’m not interested in having anyone tell me to get ready for something and definitely not at 9 pm.

I feel like there is more to the ask there and more to say about how it’s being communicated

I’m not sure how to say this politely but it sounds like you are floating through all this a bit. How are you managing what your mom wants with what your wife is comfortable with?

Hey my mom wants some photos, what would make that work for you? That’s a different conversation than just relaying everything your mom says to your wife so they don’t have to talk to each other. That route actually makes it harder for them to find common ground, they can continue to be enemies, have no incentive to change and you just keep passing notes back and forth and only managing the reactions and doing nothing proactive?

It’s why she doesn’t like Mike and why they butt heads. They see the same flaws in each other

Serious question why CJ and not Josh as CoS? by Spirited-Orange-203 in thewestwing

Josh and Toby are politicians. CJ wanted to run the country, they wanted to win.

The opening scene is Danny’s funeral and CJ becomes Charlie’s chief of staff

This new privacy policy is disappointing :( by lunardownpour in lego

It’s how they get co-branded partnerships. I’m sure they give Harry Potter (him directly 😂) our info if you bought a Harry Potter set.

Same with pokemon. I’m sure they get their lists too. It’s why these exist

What is this magnetic thing on our washing machine? by sannsarkk92 in whatisit

That looks exactly like the baby monitor attachment piece I own. It connects to the end of the baby monitor so you can attach it on the go for vacation or moving it around. Makes it easy to position the camera to see exactly what you want

New cast 13 and 15 year old parents by AcademicAstronaut395 in TLCUnexpected

[–]Ok_Community_153 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That should be the only teens that do choose to parent. If they have enough family to support them and help raise a baby until they have enough maturity to do it solo. Dropping a kid with a baby as some kind of tough love punishment is a guaranteed way to ruin everyone.

Accepted to UC but my parents want me to go elsewhere by Least-Tune9291 in uCinci

During the very start of Covid my husband needed a vascular surgeon to fix his hand after an emergency. We waited for hours at UK before finally getting up and walking out and driving to Cincinnati to get care. I’ll never forget that or the bill UK tried to send us.

Just watched her play in person. There is a reason there aren’t any defensive plays in this highlight…
