Dear Queenie,
My mother-in-law doesn’t like me very much although she got along fine with my husband’s previous wife, and she doesn’t like my children at all because they’re not her grandchildren. Recently she arranged a family photo session that she just didn’t tell me about and only my husband and his own children are in any of the photos. I only found out about it when I saw my husband’s copies of the pictures.
Queenie, don’t I have a right to be offended?—Insulted wife
Dear Insulted,
If only blood relatives were included in the photos, do not let it bother you. If you want current family photos, make an appointment for another photo session. It is up to you if you want to include your in-laws, and if you do not, they have no grounds for complaint.
