Worst mother in law comments...go on join me in my misery lol!

[Flutterby10]

Go on tell me the worst things said to you by a mother in law?

Not saying they all bad btw I’ve had a couple of nice ones previously when younger.

Ive had pretty a pretty bad week with mine but I’ve decided I’m over it all now!

Pregnant with my first child , she called us into her room (me and her son) and then said during the Convo “there’s nothing wrong with being a single mother I’m one and so are all my friends” I said I’m not single I’m with your son he’s right here 😂 she said “oh I’m just saying” 😂😂😂😂

My ex in law called my kids bastard when it was her son who was cheating around. We had actually good relationships when I was married but soon as the marriage was over the abuse and insulted started from them all.

MIL my son can do better than you
Me ok.
9 year later after we split.
EX MIL texts out the blue hes been arrested and hes going to prison for sleeping with a 15 year old.
ME text back you wanted better than me for your son congrats he became a pedo Blocked her.

Wedding day. 'Can we have a picture of just my son... in case'

Mother in law and her 2 daughters went out for mother's day lunch, all 3 walked past me and said good bye.. leaving me out. I live with my mother in law, been with her son for 14 years and married for 6 of those. Then during dinner at home, proceeded to tell everyone how I was "like a daughter to her" ... yes when you choose you mean. So many more but this one actually hurt. Decided that day not to be such a door mat.

My MIL said loudly to my SIL, thought she was having her boob off, look at her its there, this being about a week after I had a radical single mastectomy, my chest area has collapsed.

At the beginning of my relationship with DH, she used to sulk and cry on the phone to her DS's if she wasn't getting enough attention so that they would go round to see her. I saw straight through her and had it out with her.

Before I met DH, she picked a wallpaper, colour etc, FIL spent 1 week prepping and decorating, she came back from a break and said it was an awful wallpaper and she hated it and blamed him, she didn't speak to him for 3 months.

She is not a nice person and thick as shit, she once told me biscuits do not have sugar in them, actually said to her as you taking the piss?!! She wasn't.

I tolerate her as my DC's don't have any other GP's but keep her at arms length now from us and only see her when its convenient for us, she knows this and she hates it, I love that.

My DH admitted a few months ago, he doesn't really like her either.

When I was expecting (I was 17yrs old) and living temporarily with her, she read from a medicine bottle ‘ not to be given to pregnant bitches’ to my SIL -both smirking !

I’m with you, if you are not married then why would you want the child to have Dad’s surname?

Finally split with my Ex husband, my MIL emailed me to tell me what a leech I was, (I wasn’t) how wonderful his new girlfriend is (young enough to be his daughter) I then told her about the abuse I had over the years by her wonderful little boy both physical & mental she said I deserved it! Yes I deserved a black eye for going out with friends & not bringing him a kebab home this was before I had a mobile phone good 20 yrs ago, she also fell out with my DD because she supported me saying she didn’t exist in her life neither did my DGD my DD told her to fuck off & the feeling was mutual!

Too many to put down here, but the best are; saying I have Munchausens as I was poorly alot with IBS.
After barely seeing baby, deciding she was going to have him once a week all day, and didn't speak to us for a year when we said no.
Saying I was a dirty bitch because DH left the toilet with skids in.
By far my favourite thing, not something she said to me, but did was when DH was going to propose. She went ring shopping with him, and as it was nearly her birthday chose a ring she wanted as her gift!
As I say far too many things to write, I'm NC now,thank god!!

My son suffered brain damage at birth due to negligence from the consultant.
she told me it was my fault because we had purchased a green pram!!
she also kept telling us for first four years he would grow out of his brain damage
they have disowned him now as he’s an embarrassment to the family!! My gorgeous beautiful boy

That she thinks we have a strange marriage and that we should separate.

Clearly you are just the kind of person this thread is about.

Four weeks after having a c-section with an infection in the wound and struggling to feed a tongue tied baby I hosted my MIL for Christmas. My Mum remarked that she felt guilty that I was doing so much to which MIL replied that she didn’t as I was so much younger than her! Months later she asked me if it hurt after having a c-section and seemed surprised that I said it did!

This one has me in stitches!!!! 😂😂😂😂

So many of these posts are awful and this is not to dismiss them - but I think the poster who said that MILs were once DILs was very astute. I can’t believe that’s never occurred to me before 😆but of course it’s true - it’s the same people at different life stages, so there will be roughly the same amount of toxic DILs as there are toxic MILs.

@Littlelucas On praising any aspect of dc’s being talented in absolutely anything “well, you know they get that from OUR side of the family - my df/dm/dsis/gf’s pet cat was a very talentedartist/musician/mathematician/gymnast/tightrope walker etc etc…

OMG yes this!! DH’s brother does this non-stop - “ah, well, that’s a [their surname] thing, obviously”. Drives me nuts!!

It was @Flutterby10 who said that perspicacious thing.

This is absolutely insane!

💐 This is so horrible, I’m so sorry you had her in your life. All the best to you and your beautiful boy.

Thank you xx
he’s such a joy
he’s even better without that toxic influence

I could say so many things about my ex MIL, but the worst was when I tried to speak to her about her son being so aggressive towards me.

Her response: there's domestic abuse in ALL relationships! Apparently it's normal behind closed doors!

She'd also told me that I must have done something to him to make him angry! I didn't!

Mine was a big character and is no longer with us - she had many nice traits but she was quite possessive and did used to come out with some belters though - accusing me of being the person insisting on moving 100 miles away and her son going freelance . Also said things like 'I've taken some ironing because you clearly can't keep up with it ' (I was working full time with a 8 month old) -she did sod all and had a comfortably off husband

My DH and I asked MIL to babysit (so so so rare we ask!) for a short while as I had a physio appointment (back spasm) after we collected DDs (7 & 10) the girls told us “Nanny said to Grandad on the phone that she was fucked off because she’s stuck here looking after these two bitches” 😢when confronted,mil said it was “a joke” NC now. This was a month ago.

We always made the effort to spend every Christmas with DH's parents, his sister never did. His sister moved abroad, and when i was pregnant they decided to spend that Christmas with her. Afterwards I asked why they chose to do that rather than share our baby's first Christmas - MIL said well you'd had two miscarriages, we didn't think this one would last.

Also when I was pregnant we'd sent a photo of baby bump to our parents - MIL's only comment was "you look like you've stuck a football up your dress".
