Dear Amy: My daughter-in-law is extremely close to her family and although she tries to show affection for us, it’s only out of obligation.
You are not obliged to prove your affection for your son and his wife by cleaning their house. I hope you are at least compensated for this work.
I hope you can summon up the courage to calmly approach your daughter-in-law about this. Tell her, “This is embarrassing, but I want you to know that on Christmas you regifted to me the bag I gave to you — two years ago. I realize that you and I don’t have a very close relationship, but I do want you to know that this has made me feel sad and somewhat unappreciated. I’ve tried my best to get to know you, but I wish our relationship was on a better footing.
I’ve been told discreetly it’s because most of our new friends live in more modest homes and feel they cannot entertain the same way we can.
