Woman “Accidentally” Forgets to End Call Before Speaking About Daughter-In-Law

Even though we’re told we shouldn’t care what other people think of us, deep down, many of us still do. Wanting to be accepted and loved is natural, and it can be devastating to hear someone talk badly about us behind our backs. However, hearing someone say nice things about us when they don’t think we’re listening can be incredibly uplifting.
