My DIL Criticized My Outfits, and I Hate How She Made Me Feel Ashamed

Anne has always been known as the stylish grandma — leggings, boots, and chic jackets were her thing. But her daughter-in-law didn’t approve.
-
First, she told Anne she shouldn’t dress like that when picking up her grandson.
-
Then, on Anne’s birthday, she gifted her gray sweatpants, an oversized “#1 Grandma” T-shirt, and plain sneakers — saying it was “more appropriate.”
-
The comment was made in front of the whole family. Anne felt embarrassed and later asked if the gift was meant as a message. Her DIL admitted yes — she thought Anne should “embrace being a grandma.”
-
The two argued. Anne insisted she could be a grandma and still feel confident in her style. Her son later texted her not to “make it into drama.”
Anne is left wondering: is wearing leggings at 60 really so wrong, or was this just a clash of generations?
