Other daughter in law gets away with murder

2015mom · 26/04/2016 15:35

My husband has one brother who is married and his wife gets away with murder!

She is so lazy does nothing to help others, keeps on having kids ! She is now going to have her third child (she will have 3 children under 3 years old) and she expects everyone to raise her kids whilst she sits there and watches tv or shops on internet or out shopping. She has never worked and gets everything paid for her whilst we go out and work for living and do everything for ourselves.

She has also caused trouble for her mother in law by breaking down relationships and still mother in law talks nicely to her for the sake of her son!!

Then I hear people moaning about her and think it's unfair and also think it's unfair mother in law burdens us with the laziness from the other daughter in law.

I am not the jealous type but someone made me think today maybe I am jealous that she gets away with murder, is lazy, gets everything whilst she does not have to work even. Though her husband on crap wage she still get in laws to pay for stuff and benefits!

She has everyone wrapped around her little finger whilst she sits on her ass all day! Makes me angry but I need to learn how to block her out and be normal with her even though it's hard

So you're not paying taxes then...

Waltermittythesequel · 26/04/2016 16:11

Oh ffs.

Daily mail.

Buzzardbird · 26/04/2016 16:11

Who looks after the goat?

2015mom · 26/04/2016 16:11

You can get benefits even if u ain't born here lol

She gets benefits cos she married to someone here and does not and will not work ever

StuRedman · 26/04/2016 16:12

What benefits is she claiming?

RudeElf · 26/04/2016 16:12

The goat sits on the sofa on OP's behalf as she just doesnt have time.

RudeElf · 26/04/2016 16:12

Do you get benefits even if you cant write proper? Lol

Waltermittythesequel · 26/04/2016 16:15
Hmm
Buzzardbird · 26/04/2016 16:16

I'm surprised there's room for the goat on the sofa, what with the wide screen TV.

Buzzardbird · 26/04/2016 16:16

Bet the sofa is leather too?

Alisvolatpropiis · 26/04/2016 16:18
Hmm
StuRedman · 26/04/2016 16:18

I'm on benefits as well, even though my husband is a higher rate tax payer. I've never really worked apart from a couple of years FT. I'm sitting on my leather sofa watching my 50inch telly while DH picks the kids up from school.

I don't have a goat though. Just a small designer breed dog.

Buzzardbird · 26/04/2016 16:22

You're so posh Stu! Grin Bet your sofa is tan, not black. Wink

Hissy · 26/04/2016 16:26

I would think anyone who has 3 children under 3 doesnt even know where her arse is, let alone sit on it all day

Hahahaha Grin exactly this.

So this is a Thread that bashes:
In-laws
Sahm
Immigrants
Benefit recipients

Bet she parks across drives/in parent and child spaces when she doesn't even have her kids with her too

B I N G O A N Y O N E ?

Op, you're tragically sad love. You need to get back to work, all that sitting on your Arse has addled your brain.

Tiggeryoubastard · 26/04/2016 16:30

You say she's lazy and you seem like a bitch. I know which is prefer as a sil.

unlimiteddilutingjuice · 26/04/2016 16:30

She's not getting "Every benefit going".
Your BIL's family as a whole will be getting (at a guess) Working Tax Credit, Child tax Credit and Child Benefit.
If your SIL went out to work they would likely get more benefits because they would receive 75% of eligible child care costs. This pretty much always dwarfs the allowances for people to actually live off.
The benefits system gets an absolute bargain out of SAHM's

I work pt. On my 3 days at home, I'm often sitting on my arse doing nothing. Except I'm not really. I'm supervising my kids. Who won't let me leave the room to get on with anything productive, without shouting the house down.

If MIL thinks she's doing too much for her then its up to her to grow a pair and start saying no.
I suspect she doesn't mind that much and just enjoys a moan.

CandyFlossBrain · 26/04/2016 16:31

Try and be a little bit kinder. You don't get any prizes for vilifying other women - though you do get a hefty dose of approval from certain quarters, I understand that...

This is all about shredding your SIL, but where's her husband in this? Did she make the babies by herself? Is she supposed to support their family all by herself? How much of the childcare does he take on? He is totally absent from your comments. Is he dead?

If your MIL loves her DGC so much, she should stop bitching about their mother and only help as much as she feels able. If you don't want to hear her complaints, tell her. But your posts make it sound like you love the bitching sessions.

Sunshine87 · 26/04/2016 16:34

You sound very bitchy op your MIL if she's that bothered she wouldn't do it. Wonder what she says about you behind your back OP?

MorrisZapp · 26/04/2016 16:35

Whose murder do you suspect her of?

I think you should turn her in.

RudeElf · 26/04/2016 16:38

Maybe its the goats murder? Come to think of it, i have no goat!! Perhaps she murdered ALL the goats. Shock

Tiggeryoubastard · 26/04/2016 16:46

Will no one think of the goats!

Tiggeryoubastard · 26/04/2016 16:47

For the goats

Buzzardbird · 26/04/2016 16:52

Murdered goats means only one thing...goat curry!

exWifebeginsat40 · 26/04/2016 16:53

your sister-in-law sounds like one of those terrible Schroedinger's Immigrants, who simultaneously steal our jobs AND claim all the benefits.
