I woke up so angry! Almost yelled at my MIL last night who decided that it was a good idea to take my daughter out for a haircut and give her a completely new look... without even asking me. How uncool is that? I told her that there are some boundaries I'd like her to respect and she said it's the accountant in me that 'makes life so complicated'. If anything accountants are making life easier, so what is she saying?! How do you deal with such a situation where it's better to not say much?

I guess you can ask her if she would be ok with you redecorating her living room. Sometimes people don’t understand the difference between being helpful and making changes to people’s lives that is not under their control.
When my son was about 18 months old. He had adorable little curls down to his neck and he hadn’t had an official first haircut yet and we’re planning to do it soon. I left him and my daughter with a good friend of mine for the weekend and when I came back his hair was cut off. She decided to cut it herself because it was “too long”. We haven’t really spoken much since. As you said there were boundaries and in my opinion, she crossed one And I am far from the so called accounting personality Good luck.

This has nothing to do with women in accounting go talk to your girlfriends lmfao

Does your daughter like the hair?

How old is how’s is she?
