When my soon to be ex-wife told my soon to be ex-MIL that we were getting married, MIL replied, "You know he probably will never stop drinking."  Well, I haven't had a drink in ten years, and she still has "a sip every then and again".  Nice of her to give her support in the beginning.  P.S.  She also used to charge us (a lot!!!) to baby-sit HER grandchildren.!!!

My MIL was disapproving since day one.  I tried to get along with her.  I took her places and did things for her.  When I had my first child, the doctor told me not to give her sweets until she was one year old.  MIL decided to give it to her anyway in front of DH and me at a family party.  I told her no, and she told me that I was paranoid and too sensitive for myself.  She has, over the years, told me her opinion on my personal appearance, weight and hairstyle.  She never approved.  She has told my kids not to worry about what I say, just do what she says.  "What mom does not know won't hurt her."  She deliberately goes against anything I ask her to do to respect my family and wishes with my girls.  She has left them alone in public places, not put my 7 year old in her booster seat (required by law), and put my older girl in the front with an airbag.  When I talk to her about theses things, she tells me, "As far as we go, I think they will be all right."  UNREAL!!!  I have tried to talk with her, but she refuses to admit any wrongdoing or apologize.  I have kept the kids away from her for periods of time, hoping that she will see what she is doing.  She will wait and look for an opening to come back in and continue her behavior status quo.  I have not let her see the girls for now 6 months and DH has only visited her 2 times with kids.  She could not help herself - she took the girls upstairs to try on some old clothes and she told them that if I was not such a "hard@ss", she would be with them.

        Signed - UNREAL!!!

I just found out that one of my DF's ex-girlfriends called my FPILs looking for him.  He broke up with her and apparently never really got over it.  So what did FMIL do?  She gave him our number and now she's been calling.  I'm giving birth to our first child in a couple of weeks.  Thanks FMIL, great timing.  Signature: Just What I Need.
