My first clicky poll! (in-laws)

Re: My first clicky poll! (in-laws)

  • I call my MIL by her first name (even though DH calls my parents' Mom & Dad).  I don't call my FIL anything because his name is the same as my DHs, lol.
    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • I voted avoid them at all costs, but I really don't since they live in Chicago.  And they aren't technically my in-laws.  A's mom and I touch base once in a while - usually about K.  His mom and her husband usually come out 1-2x a year and the same for his dad and his gf.  
  • I'm a special snowflake. I call my FIL "Pop" and my MIL by her first name. I've tried calling her "mom" but I felt dirty. And, believe me, it takes a lot for something to make me feel dirty.

  • I am a SS because I call both of them by their nicknames. My H calls my parents by their first names...we are very casual

    I call my MIL "Miterra", which is Greek for Mom.  I call my FIL by his first name.
