[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 422520, member: 1991"] Witz, I'm wondering - they seemed to get really righteously indignant with you (and you didn't know why). What if they got mad at your refusal, thinking you KNEW that you would be expected to bring the mother of the bride? Sometimes people like this can be very egocentric and expect you to be able to read their minds. We've had the opposite problem - mother in law was invited to various family weddings but was unable to go because she couldn't drive herself there, would have needed us to take her. But we were not invited. I offered to drive her to the weddings anyway, and sit and read a book in the car or go have a visit with family of mine in the area. But mother in law wouldn't hear of it - she insisted on boycotting the weddings in support of me and husband, even though we were not upset at being left out. Marg [/QUOTE]
