Ok here's the deal. My sister is seeing a man and she invited him and his brother over for Thanksgiving dinner. My mom is having Thanksgiving at her house and she told my sister hey that's fine, invite them over. I have a really BIG sense of humor and was teasing my sister that I was gonna question the dude and ask him what his intentions are with my sister and when they going to get married. Next thing I know, my mom calls and told me I better not even think of doing something like that and then she started calling me lol "boy" and telling me I better behave my ***. Yeah my sister called my mom and told her and I got my *** ripped and I haven't even done anything! If you had a son, would you tell him the same thing? Do mothers and daughters really stick together like glue???

I laughed so hard when I read this. I think your sense of humor has gotten you in trouble before. You better behave yourself, you know you'll hear about it if you don't. Kids! You gotta love 'em.

Future behavior is usually gaged by past behavior. I'm sure they have reason to believe you would do exactly what you say you would, even in jest. Don't embarrass your sister. You'll have plenty of time to act like an as*s later on. Make Thanksgiving a less stressful event for the sake of your mom. And yes, I would call and tell you "boy, behave yourself!" because your behavior reflects on your mother. Have some respect, will you, Dude? Godloveya.

Not only did my Father ask every guy I dated these questions both of my brothers did as well so the poor guy got it three ways! Mom was gone by then and I didn't have a step-Mom yet...It is embarrassing to the sister/daughter but telling your Mom that you were only kidding should have been enough,Yes if I had a daughter and one if my son's said things like that I ask him to call his sister and apologies and promise her that he was only kidding. Sense My sons are grown now I wouldn't call him a boy though.

If I thought you were serious, yes I would have chewed you out too. She didn't want you to embarrass your sister and she didn't want the thanksgiving dinner to be ruined. There are other times/places to ask her date about his intentions with your sister. At the Thanksgiving table is not the appropriate time or place.

I'd tell my son to behave, but I don't think I'd tell him what your mom told you. We do have a "No Drama" clause for holiday get-togethers, so I think that it covers mischief, too. Maybe that's what you guys need.

I'm betting that your mom and sis, especially your sister, are very nervous about her bringing in this new guy to eat with the family, and they want it to be perfect. You trying to lighten the mood, no matter how innocently, would ruin it in their eyes. Give your sis and mom this holiday to show off, and keep the comments to yourself. You have plenty of time to mess with the boyfriend some other day.

I suppose your sister doesn't want the lad put off,we all get an ear bashing sometime,though most of the time my mum sticks up for my brother(i suppose him being the only boy with 5 sisters has something to do with it,he is still mummys boy,even if he is 48!!!!!!!)

Your mother and sister totally overreacted. They must know that you like to joke around and you didn't say anything offensive. You got poor treatment and it seems like your mother favors your sister. I treat my son and daughter equally.

I don't think anyone over reacted. Your mother and sister just didn't want you making asses out of the family.

She just wants you to mind your manners. At least you know she is serious about it.
