Xmas Lunch - Awkward

[chrissa1]

My daughter is coming up to our part of the world and bringing her husband and the twins to meet their uncle and cousins for the first time, for Xmas.

My son’s new partner who is a lovely person but quite clingy has taken it upon herself to include her mother into the Xmas Day lunch. I have never met her and of course neither has my daughter and family.

The thing is, is that my daughter’s mother in law is shelling out for the whole week and paying for the rent of the large house and I have said to my son that really she shouldn’t be having to pay for a stranger, too.

Also my daughter wants the twin’s first Xmas to be with Just, family and not have a complete stranger at the dinner table.

I have said that I will text a message to the girlfriend and explain everything.

How would you word it? TIA.

Exactly, ummmm. He’s suddenly found that his backside is not going to be taken care of.

If you open the can of worms dont be surprised if you get bitten.

[chrissa1]

What is the can of worms?

Well done that daughter. She will look after you chrissa ;-)

[Smowball]

Is they’re any way you could meet the mother beforehand just to get to know her??

Glad things are out in the open, the lad will have to sort himself out.
