so be nice,make an real effort with her but she does not like me.

At birthdays and xmas she asks Mil how much each kids present costs,and will ask why one was £1 more expensive than another childs.

She has questioned Mil about the exact times she has my children and when I should be back to collect them.

She once made sarky comments about a outfit I was wearing when we went out on a family meal,she generally grunts and looks me up and down when I see her.

I have never said anything as it would cause bad feeling,but we have been invited to a family function which I dont plan to take the kids and Mil insists,its a nightmare when they all get together and Fil lets us all know,and she becomes even worse.

We also plan to marry soon and I know it will be horrible infact,I dont know how to handle this.

Any advice on what you would do?.

I have as little to do with my ILs as possible. One SiL is totally bonkers, when DD was a toddler she kicked her. I have not seen her for seven years nor has she seen my DD.

I saw her try to hit my son,my Fil got up and saw my face,he removed my son from her,she knew what she was about to do,she was very lucky I remained calm,it may of been different if she had hit him.

I know Mil tells me these things, maybe she likes to play us of each other,I just dont tell her anything anymore that way it cant be told to sil.

My SIL is a stuck up two-faced cow BUT my inlaws think the sun shines out of her backside. I dislike her even more after finding out she had a fling with BIL's 'mate'/her friends husband (my inlaws don't know).

We avoid each other and I haven't actually seen her this year but it's DH's younger sister's birthday soon and she is planning a big day out, I'm dreading it as I find it very hard to be civil to her..........so OP I do sympathise with you.
