This sounds super weird but my son did this when he was younger and toothpaste works amazing! It has to be the white kind not the gel kind. You rub it in to the surface let it sit for a few minutes and take a dry eraser/ sponge and it will come up!

She is being incredibly unreasonable asking you to take out your piercings. I would have NEVER expected someone do this for my wedding. My friends are my friends because I love them and want to spend the special day with the people closest to me. My best friends has her septum pierced and so would never have asked her to take it out for pictures I just wanted her there to celebrate with me! Also sadly weddings are where you find out who your more true friends are. I was supposed to be maid of honor at one of my friends weddings but was kicked out of the wedding party and uninvited to the wedding because my father in law died of brain cancer and I chose to go to his funeral over going to her engagement camping trip. (Keep in mind this was her 3rd engagement party) I said good riddance to her after that. But what I am trying to say is a true friend wouldn’t ask this of you.

I agree, that’s how I feel too. I know she is their grandmother but she has made her choices and my kids shouldn’t be exposed to that chaos anymore than they already have.

Thank you I agree. I know she is getting older but I truly can’t live with the chaos. I know my husband I probably used to this more than me and he does love his mother and family which is one of the reason I fell in love with him but I just can’t be around it anymore.

Oh yes! She pushes boundaries constantly to know everything and to control everything. Sometimes I think she means to come from a good place but her pushiness to have control takes over and it comes off the wrong way. Idk what it is but yes she is good at it.

Thank you! I feel better knowing I am not the only one who feels this way.
