what is it with m.i.l s
My one never likes it if i get anything new.She sulks or shows no intereset at all. I feel like she thinks i am spending her sons well earned money and i don't have the right to.She spends her husbands and dosen't work. I am bringing up our three small children.
She will only have our children on her terms and will never bring them back when i want them.She undermines me in front of the children with things like "didn't your mother dress you properly today then" and so on.
My dh had an affair last year and he went to live at hers while we were apart. He came to see me every day and she tryed to stop him.She told him grandparents had rights and that she would use them (whatever that is supposed to mean).She now rings dh up at work and asks him how I am treating him .
We had counciling and the reason he had an affair other than being a bastard was the way he had seen his parents relate to one another.She says what goes and he is under the thumb.They are like the T.V program with mrs Bucket.Because he couldn't rebel against her he done it with in our relationship which is very sad.
We are working on our realationship all the time.Although I wouldn't of chosen for dh to have an short affair It has strenghtened us 100%. 8 months on he is an equal partner and is no longer afaid to share his point of veiw.He is a better father and a very loving husband and is now as i have always wanted him to be.
Now m.i.l won't forget it and she is taking it out on us. If this was my son i would have not taken sides but supported my d.i.l why it was going on. I would now be celeberating the fact that my son had turned into a responsible adult at last and has grown as a person.I would be celebrating that he has not ost his wife and children after this dreadful mistake.
She (as our only babysitter) has said she will not come to our house anymore and when i go around there she can hardly say hello to me and acts force.She didn't even come and see my son on his birhtday
