[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 525495, member: 11791"] Those infernal questions... (ugh) Here's some zingers from husband: When it comes to difficult child, and our peers complain about either his "so-called limitations" (not usually worded so politely): "I'll raise my kids, you raise yours." Or same group commenting about our parenting... husband just says... "Your kids aren't raised yet either." Coming from older folk, it's harder... their kids are raised (for better or for worse). When it's about ME (long story, long list... and yes, invisible disability stuff)... HE speaks up and defends me, and asks that I just ignore. This means that I don't come across as whiny or snivelling (took me a long time to buy into this), and he has the right to defend his wife. Given that many DHs do not do so, when he does, people take it fairly well. [/QUOTE]
