婆媳問題:『火冒三丈』的英語怎麼說?

婆媳問題好困擾,是你會怎麼做?

💡 『火冒三丈』的英語怎麼說?

My mother-in-law and I had different opinions on how much a baby needs to be coddled. She would insist on rocking my son to sleep. However, I would say goodnight to him and then leave the nursery. My anger went through the roof when she said, “Oh, I could never do that to my child”.

對孩子的呵護上,婆婆和我有截然不同的看法。我婆婆會堅持抱著我兒子,搖他入睡,而我和兒子說晚安後,就會離開育嬰室了。當婆婆說「天呀,我永遠不會像你這樣,對待小孩」時,我的怒火直衝屋頂。
