I dearly love my ex-DIL - she’s a wonderful mom and a good person. DS and I agree, however, that she is stubborn and has to have the last word. Most of the time it isn’t worth challenging - I personally would rather be happy than be right. But once in awhile I’d like to at least feel that I’m responding appropriately but not just be a turtle and slink away. Do you have strategies for communicating effectively with loved ones who have this trait?
