Mom Stands Up for Her Introverted Daughter When the MIL Tries to Force Her to Stop Reading on Family Vacation

It's not every day that a parent stands up for their kid. 

Strangely, good parents who support their kiddo's interests, needs, and desires are hard to come by–especially when you're the 'creative type' in a family of Division 1 athletes. While the first-rate, sports-mongering cousins get together a rousing game of flag football at the family gathering, the quieter kids usually get thrown into the mix against their will, preferring to curl up with their favorite book and relax by the fire instead. But the lucky kid in this next story had parents who were extremely supportive of her love for books, harboring her creative, introverted tendencies instead of forcing her to socialize on the family vacation. 

…But if Grandma could have her way, there would be no book-reading by this poolside.

Keep scrolling to read a story of an old-fashioned MIL who tried to force a woman's kid to stop reading books on a family vacation. But this daring mom stood by her kid's side, standing up to the MIL trying to change her daughter's demure demeanor.
