My mother in law has worked hard her entire life and raised a wonderful man that I am now married to. She also has a daughter with some serious disabilities and continues to care for her daughter and work full time. She is absolutely one of the strongest women I know, I can't deny her of that.
However, she gets into our business too much. I came into the relationship with her son as a mother. I had a very young daughter when I started dating him and he and I dated for about a year before we got married. After we were married, he adopted my daughter and we had another child together.
His mom seems to be upset about the adoption. Every time she sees our children, she refers to them as her grandchild and the child her son adopted. She never calls my first child her grandchild. She also wants the younger child to call her Grandma, but the older one to just call her by her first name.
My husband is the only father my oldest child has ever known. This is incredibly hurtful to all of us.
