Oh that was dumb! And insensitive! She chose to make an effort to get to know and like your daughter but loving is not a choice. I bet she does not choose to love her parents or you, that just came. Parents don't choose to love their kids, we just do. We might not always like them at all times but love is deeper than that. Maybe that was what she meant but it came out wrong; people love your daughter but they choose to like her and find her little quirks charming or w/e. Sometimes you just have to go down that road when it comes to accepting someone or you will always be irritated on that particular thing. Clearly your wife felt your daughter was ungrateful about something but it all came out wrong. Anger and frustration can do that and God knows kids can be frustrating. So talk to your wife and ask if she actually meant that she choose who to love, not LIKE but LOVE, because that is not love. Love is not a choice. And of you do come to a solution it's better if she is the one talking to your daughter setting things straight than if you do it. I think your daughter knows her parents don't choose to love her but that they do regardless but she might not think that about a step parent. That is why it's important it's the step parent who said it who sets it straight.
