Re: Nagging moms
^ It's called empty nest syndrome. Is your dad spending enough time with her? Your dad can tell her firmly that I'm not hanging around if the conversation takes a negative nagging gossiping turn.....I want our marriage to be a positive one. And he could take her out.......do all the things that were tougher to do when the kids were younger, kwim? They can go shopping together........trying cooking new recipes together........go to the movies....go traveling........maybe smaller trips at first. He can try surprising her with kind gestures. It can make a difference on a person's mood. They naturally begin to feel more appreciated.....and happy.......and you feel more motivated to reciprocate. This might help if the negativity is a result from feeling under-appreciated/burned-out/or insecure. Talk to your dad about it.
