I now have a daughter N Law that doesnt like me. We are oil and water. When she comes to see her dad, she ignores me...even at my birthday party..she came out of duty but didnt even say hi. However, when she wants her hair cut, she asks me to save her money and do it. I sacrifice my husband being home every Friday to go to spend time with his grandson (her son) and we also watch him often overnight to help her out...however I am tired of being taken advantage of. If we talked I would have no problem with it, but her blatent rudeness has gotten on my last nerve. She takes advantage of her dad too but he loves her and its his daughter so he doesnt seem to care...but I DO. What should I do? Do I tell my husband I dont want to be taken advantage of and I dont want to be her hair stylist anymore? I have known her for 2.5 years and it is getting steadily worse.
gsngirl7 answered Tuesday May 29 2007, 3:22 pm: She is definitly taking advantage of you. Sit down with both your husband and daughter and tell them how you feel. She has to learn that she can't treat you like dirt and then expect favors. You have the right to say no. Your husband also needs to respect your decision. Maybe sometime in the future IF she learns to respect you, then maybe you can start to cut her hair again. But for now just refuse until she learns how to treat you better. Hope my advice helps! ♥ Jenny [ gsngirl7's advice column | Ask gsngirl7 A Question ]
