Who do you think is right. Me or m-i-l?

Hi, my m-i-l is saying that since me and oh have married, she is now my legal mum, and my oh brothers are now legally my brothers, hence the words in law. To me my own mum is just that. And my mil is not now my legal mum! Does anyone know anything about this, that could set it straight? I am happy to be told i'm wrong if thats the case!

Thanks everyone! Seems the general feeling is she is nuts. Lol. Yep, thats about right!

Ok, so if she is, she might want to run that one by your blood family and see what they say.

My mil feels the same as yours - shame she hates her daughter then eh? She did once say she was the mother of the family. I laughed in her face.

Your mil sounds alittle odd.

Go to the toilet,have a big crap and then shout "finished" at the top of your voice,when she gets there be bent over with your pants and trousers around your ankles.bum in air for wiping

Next time she says it, look very serious and say something like:

'Yes, that's right. I am your legal daughter. It is such a big responsibility! What to do, for example, when you are very old and need caring for? Will I do it myself, or will I think it best that you are taken to a lovely place, far, far away, where nice people will give you the best of care, but you may never see us? Such a hard decision. Ah well, I suppose it depends on how I feel on the day. No point thinking about it now!'

My MIL always says she is my mum, she phones, I pick up, she says "Hello Mum here!"

And I don't like it. My mum died nearly 12 years ago, but I certainly don't need another one.

I'd point out that as it costs parents in the region of £200,000 to bring up a child, as your legal mother she is now expected to spend that amount on you, preferably in the form of a big fat cheque so you and DH can run away from the mad woman
