Conflict

Until now, things are still not that good between my SIL and my mother. It's really hard to be in between people you are trying hard to understand. I feel for my brother because I know that he's in the middle more than anyone else.

I really can't blame my mother for how she feels about SIL. SIL has an attitude and so does my brother. My mother has her own attitude as well. It's difficult to handle people with different levels of attitude. I guess my mother just gets a dose of her own medicine while living with someone who is as hard headed as my SIL. While SIL can't stand the fact that my mother's attitude overpowers hers.

Anyway, Thanksgiving is next week and I think my mother and my sisters are going to vegas to celebrate Thanksgiving with my cousins. That would be nice but my mother doesn't want to bring SIL along. And this is another conflict that my brother has to deal with.

Honestly, my Mom has valid reasons why she is acting this way towards SIL. I don't want to delve into the full details though. She's a mother and all she wants is for my brother to be treated well. And this is not happening. She may have all this attitude and all that, but she is still a mother. She just wants her son to be happy and well.
