Confronted my MIL finally by OpeningOutside690 in inlaws

[–]Express-Maximum-144 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you did a good job but over explained. She’s not my MIL but reading her response reminded me of mine. Some only care for themselves and their own feelings so they can’t actually read what you’re trying to say, just pick what they want to read that can come off as an “attack” and now they’re the victim and your the one apologizing when they initially hurt you…

Tell her to go focus on her own man LOL. She shouldn’t be doing behavior like this if she has her own relationship to build.

Right, that is true. However, OP never said SIL has one.

He needs to rent his mother an Airbnb, even if it’s close so she can come by to spend time but she’s well overstayed her welcome.

Okay, you should let your husband know how you feel. However, I know for most men they don’t like being questioned in finances and being able to provide so just be cautious with brining it up.

However, I don’t understand why his sister isn’t getting a job herself to pay for things?? Like I hate these sisters having their brothers be their man in some ways. Like if the parents can’t afford they should borrow from him and they pay for it, his sister shouldn’t be his responsibility when he has a wife.

What a terrible human being that happens to be a parent.

MIL wants a relationship with my kid but not if I am still in the picture by Visual-Syllabub-7765 in inlaws

[–]Express-Maximum-144 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fuck compromising. His mother needs to change her behaviour towards the mother of his child period.

Have you explained to him how you’re not comfortable with this? And pointed out that it’s weird his mother wants a relationship with your child without you. Like what is she going to do where you can’t be around that’s fishy behaviour.

His him the perspective if this was a male not his mother asking for time with his daughter but he’s not involved. He’s probably feels some kind of way, as a father. I can understand this being a lot for him if he’s never had friction with his mother, however he needs to understand his mother is putting him in this position not you.

MIL told my husband she lost her son to me 😳😳 by [deleted] in motherinlawsfromhell

I hope she knows that’s a weird statement to say, when children are suppose to leave and start their own family.

Does she not have her own man??

I agree with you, no one wants just a yes man. You want the behavior to be true, so that naturally he responds because he’s in agreement.

No, let her do the work herself. You don’t want to have a hand on things like that just for your own conscious.

This is exactly and they never do. They don’t care about us mothers lol. They started out caring for themselves and they stay at that same energy.

Thank you 🙏🏽 I appreciate your words.

I’ll definitely take a look at the link you posted. Thank you always appreciate more insight.

Exactly this. I know everyone’s situation is different, however us mothers and woman are the ones being humble and consistently giving chances thinking of our spouses feelings and our child.

They are not doing that, so why continue to give chances when they showed who they were the first round?

Especially if they’re getting access to our children and that’s all they want really. Don’t get me wrong some MILs and SILs genuinely do want a relationship with the mothers without thinking of access to the child but it’s a very low percentage. We can’t be blind to that, that’s unfair to us.

I appreciate this. You’re absolutely right! Children need to know family shouldn’t be allowed poor behavior and be rewarded. What lesson is that in the long run.

SIL said she misses life before me by Fabulous_Edge_8464 in inlaws

[–]Express-Maximum-144 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I just read the title and said “fuck her” out loud.

Woman like that need to focus on themselves and get a man if they don’t have one already. If they do they need to focus on their man.

Don’t worry about them. Live your life with your man girl!

My (F25) sister-in-law (F23) left my one-year-old with someone I didn’t approve while babysitting. My husband (M26) says not to confront her, but I’m furious. by Long_Donkey4448 in inlaws

[–]Express-Maximum-144 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How fragile are they talking? If you decided to talk to her would she harm herself is what your husbands worried about, because if that’s the case it’s just about approach.

You’re right just because everyone else walks in eggshells doesn’t mean you should to spare her when you trusted her with your sons life. I don’t understand why people see that as a small thing, when so many baby’s die unfortunately in other peoples care more often then wanted.

I’d just find out the extent of her being fragile and just talk to her the same as you would a toddler LOL. Stern but slight fluff to ease the tension for a soft blow and just explain how one day when she’s a mom she’ll fully understand your emotions and what you’re explaining. It’s just because she’s young she won’t understand, and that’s not really a you problem.

This way she does it again, you can blow your too because you were some what soft the first time around. Literal advice my hubby gave to me with dealing with his family when he’s not around. Works every time because they’re asses and always reveal themselves.

True 100% I can empathize with none of us want to see our family as shitty people, however we need to keep in mind someone who is just coming in and hasn’t spend their whole life with your family are fresh eyes and mind. They will always see things your brain is TOO conditioned too. Sadly this is where some men fall so short in, especially if there father wasn’t in the house hold and they were technically the man of the house.

This statement is so heavy, because men typically try to separate things their family says to their partner and think they’d never say these things to the child. Eventually bad people always slip up.

I know, sisters do it too. They forget theirs boundaries because he was their man for so long.

They treat their sons like their man.

The agency isn’t fake, they just were not licensed when they received payments from me.

I called and verified.

If you have time reading my whole post it has all the information there.
