We have always had a very strained relationship. MIL and SIL are cold narcissistic women who have caused stress to DH and I since we met. I have always made an effort though to be nice to them and smooth the relationship along. Despite this they have never shown any interest in our dc, our lives etc and I have always felt judged by them. I had a light bulb moment a couple of weeks ago when they did something so hurtful I cannot get over it. MIL has now decided to visit us despite not bothering for 2 years previously. I hate her so much I am not sure how I can bare her presence. She makes no attempt at conversation except to tell us how hard her life is and generally hovers over me. In the past I have made so much effort to keep the conversation going etc but cannot do this any more. I need some ideas on come backs and general coping mechanisms for the weekend please!
