I feel for you njgal … I don’t get this from my mom…but I do get it from my siblings… and the best thing that works is just say InshAllah I will look into it… in a little while or when the kids are a little bit more grown up… something along those lines…
You really can’t change the way a family member feels about your choices… best thing is to avoid confrontation and put things off for a later date or something… but whatever you do, don’t mention you don’t have money or things along those lines… that ends up family members feeling even more sorry for you…
I can only the blame the little kids for so long. But I am trying to avoid confrontation. They are coming for the holidays so I better come up with some sort of excuse.
