do all mners hate their mILS

[TheHighwayCod]

think you lot are real cows tbh

ther are hardly any nice htreads abotu them
y ou all LOVE their sons so they cant have don that badly

Mine was lovely but died very suddenly just before DS was born. we miss her

Mine was a cow though, there is nothing about her to like.

No I love mine to bits but everyone has their moments and much as you love them you know that they'd drop you in a heartbeat if you hurt their sons....

Do you like yours Cod?

I find I have a lot more understanding of my mil, now I have my own ds, and know how I feel about him.

No, I don't hate her. Infact, I feel quite sorry for her - because I nicked him!!

so if they are all so bad why dont you all sever ties wiht them?
( well nutty has i suppose )

My MIL left her son (my DH) and his brothers and sisters when he was only 5 years old, I don't think she can take a single bit of the praise for how he has turned out.

Now who is the cow?

No! Mine's fab. She's the loveliest, sweetest person and DD1 takes after her, thankfully. And DD2 after MIL's mum.

Nope, I live with mine atm and we haven't come closer to mauling each other yet.

Think I have been quite lucky with mine really considering some of the threads I read. DH gets on brilliantly with my mum too

mine is great
alwasy interssting
generous wiht timea dn money
wise
non judegemental ( to my face!)
highly supportive
I KNOW i wont be as good a one as her

my MIL died when i was 40 wks pg with dd2

my mother in law is absolutely wonderful, I love her

i dont hate mine but we hardly see her - maybe twice a year - at Xmas and on my DD's bday (if she is not on hols) she only lives 10 mins walking distance away but its her knobhead hubby!! (not DP's Dad)

I love mine she's fab - have more in common with her than my own mother. It helps that we're both book mad so there's always something to talk about.

She also had two children, so is often better with sibling advice than my mother (I'm an only child).

dh was sitting at her bedside whispering the names we had picked for dd2

she was unconscious at the time

but we like to think she heard

My MIL is lovely, and so is my FIL

I honestly don't know what we'd have done without them since dsd came to live with us

We're having them for Christmas dinner to say a big thank you, I'm really looking forward to cooking for them

I love my MIL and FIL to bits

Posted ont he other thread about who has nice inlaws"

I do. They are great, and a big part of my family. I think it must be very sad to have such bad feelings one either/both sides and must make for trying family times.

nailey

dad reackons that poeple hear till the very end

Yes I have and did well before I split with Xp. He doesn't speak to them either, they are truley an awful family. Only last week his mum shoved his dad for something and so his dad pushed his mum over and then his sisters boyfriend knocked his dad out. Pathetic.

Mine is just like yours Cod BUT dh is her only son and much as she loves me, if I did anything to hurt dh well..

although of course I do have the trump card of the children...

me too! dh an only child
she still barely rememebrs his birthday

I have never met my MIL. DH lost both of his parents when he was in his mid-20's, I didn't met DH until he was in his early 30's. By all accounts she was a lovely (but fierce!) woman. I know DH would give anything for his parents to have met me and our DD, even just once.

Mine's been great. She a bit mad sometimes (in a nice way[)but a fantastic grandma and does some wonderful things with the children and would do anything for them. She's helped me no end.

I see a lot of threads where people are enraged by their parents/inlaws for commitiing terrible crimes like sweeties or being soft with the grandchildren. That's gramdma's job though isn't it??

oh yes
i think thsoe folk need to get a reality grip
