My ILs blamed me for making them feel unwelcome when they would, on rare occasion, stop by to see their newborn GD, and I would leave the room to use a breast pump.  I guess they wanted a topless floor show - gross.  Then, I tried to make things better by extending a standing invitation to my MIL to visit with her GD every Tuesday.  What happened?  The witch never even showed up!!  They didn't feel unwelcome, they are selfish and lazy!  But, I guarantee that . . .

        Signed - Somehow, This Will Be All My Fault!!
        ( responses to this story )        ( here is my story )

I have stopped answering the phone when MIL calls.  She sees the phone as a hotline to put nasty seeds in my head about whomever she thinks is a problem this week.  She now rings DH daily at work, and three times every weekend.  I kept unplugging the phone so that we could have dinner in peace, but DH just plugs it back in.  I have been told many times by DH not to tell his mother anything about him.  So, when she starts, I just bounce it back to DH.  "You'll just have to ask him."  When I got PND, he was on the phone to her daily, and told her everything that I ever told him in ten years.  She said that it was my fault because he had no one to talk too.  When I was really sick, he spent most of his time anywhere but with me, because I made him feel bad.  He even told her why I don't speak to my DP, which was very serious.  I had a hard time telling him why, and I didn't want her to know, ever!  She phoned, last night, and asked to speak to my DS.  Then, she spent ten minutes trying to get information out of him about DH and me.  DH sat next to DS passively listening, while I got more and more angry!  And, do you know what stops me acting?  The fact that I am a dyslexic, 40 year old SAHM.  It took me two hours to write this story.  I know that if I leave, I will have nothing, and MIL will then have access to my DS whenever she wants.

        Signed - Stupid and Stuck
