Mother in law too involved in husband life

My Husband works with his mother and sees her after work and on weekends as well. She’s texts him all the time as well. I feel like she plans all of these things for him to do which stops him from doing things he should be doing like getting a new job. He is a procrastinator and keeps putting off looking for a new job. The one he has with her is part time. He qualified with a certificate back in April for the job of his dreams. But he’s still working with her. I don’t believe that she likes me and she had made comments about her son going home with her. Like she wants him to move back in with her. She has a husband and two other children. I find her completely suffocating. I put up with it for two years but all of a sudden I am absolutely sick of seeing his family. I just can’t stand the thought of another family dinner. I feel like they are really fake with me. My husband is 37. I am 39. I hate my husband being treated like a child.

He is still tied to her apron strings.

I have never tried to control my son ... besides he wouldn't let me

You sound awesome. I guess she must be insecure and immature. I thought by the time someone reached their 70's they would have grown up. I don't understand why they can't let their children go and live their own lives. We just live down the road from them. They see him all the time.

That would totally do my head in. Sit him down & tell him it's time to have a talk about what he wants to be when he grows up.
