So my FIL just got married. We have had some issues with boundaries in the past but mostly once DH talked to him things have gotten better. They got married this last weekend after dating for 3 1/2 years but we only knew about it for the last year. DH isn't one for random small talk with his dad. So far I like new MIL but I can see where she likes things a certain way and we might be dealing with issues in the future. Problem/question is we just got an email from FIL saying MIL is trying to figure out what my kids should call her because she doesn't really want them to call her by her first name. I feel like this is something that will and should progress naturally and shouldn't be pushed upon them. Am I making a mountain out of a mole hill here? FIL has kind of become my bec so somedays I have a hard time seeing if I'm being unreasonable or not but this just feels selfish and pushy to me.
