My mother-in-law tends to be nosey, judgemental, and rude. For example: She came to visit us last Friday & brought 6 of my husband's nephews. She never mentioned brining all the boys & I barely had enough food.Somehow, they ended up staying the night. I wasn't prepared. I was bothered but kept my cool but when she came back to get them - I stayed in my room.
She is a single, born again Christian who gossips a lot. She used to be promiscuous & abused alcohol & drugs.
Since she lives in LA & we live in San Diego, we don't see her too much. In December, my husband & I are going on a cruise & she'll watch our daughter. I feel like I have to hide our bills when she stays @ our house.
My question is - when she pi$$es me off - should I just take it or stand up to her? I feel like if I take it, she'll keep doing it but if I stand up to her - it will cause problems between my husband & I.
It was worse before we had our daughter & I would avoid visting her.
