Answer 2

My mother in law is a royal pain in the a**. My husband is the oldest and the only boy, so my mother in law thinks that he should cater to her every whim. She got upset once while she was visiting because I was admiring a pair of sneakers and my husband told me to go ahead and try them on because if I liked them that he would buy them for me. She made a comment about him never spending that much money on her and after I told her that she wasn't f**king him, she shut up. She has a husband, who gives her the world but she still thinks that my husband is supposed to do the same. She even became upset when she found out that her name wasn't on my husband's life insurance policy and she told him that if he didn't put her on the policy that I wasn't going to give her any money. She is absolutely right. We have children and besides my mom isn't a beneficiary on my life insurance policy either.

Answer 3

My mother in law is a real pain. She has Alzheimer's disease and had two strokes. I've been basically taking care of her since her husband died 12 years ago. She has been doing a lot of crazy things, like walking around nude in front of my grandsons. Since she had two strokes she can't talk very good or move her hands much. She can't dress herself without assistance. She's 90 years old and I know she just is very sick. But what she does really gets me mad, like undressing herself only to find out she needs help to dress herself again. We lock our refrigerator and turn off our stove at night because she used to get up and eat ice cream 5 times a night, she forgot she had any ice cream in the first place. It's really comical, but frustrating to me, why a woman like that doesn't pass away. She's got ninety percent hearing loss and could hardly see anymore and yet she wakes up every day and we just wonder why she still lives? My aunt who was 77 passed away last year she had a brain tumor and she died a few months after her surgery. It's not fair!!

Answer 4

No. But one of my sisters in law is a major pain. She is, quite simply, a *****! I try to avoid as many family functions as possible because of her. She and her family completely blew off my son's graduation party without even RSVPing. This after all of the stinking parties and celebrations we have gone to for her two sons. My mother-in-law is actually very sweet. I'm sorry to hear yours gives you such a negative vibe.

Answer 5

I have been fortunate to have had two lovely mothers-in-law. My present husband's mother was much maligned by her own family (my brother and sister in law that is - not my husband) but she was a real dear to me. Sadly she has passed away.

My first husbands mother has still remained very much a mother-in-law to me and even my new husband. She accepted my child by my new husband as one of her own grandchildren and is a lovely little lady - although sadly she had six children and only 4 of them are still in touch with her, two cut her dead years ago.

It's my husband I feel sorry for - he's the one with the mother in law problem - and I dont blame him - my mother's the nightmare. My parents never really spoke to my husband much when my father was alive, they didnt consider he was good enough for me, so we both got cut off - my sister was always favourite. The whole family knew it, but she emigrated as soon as my dad died so that she did not have to put up with mum. So mum suddenly started depending on my husband and I to such an extent that she wouldnt ask - she would demand that we do things for her, if we said we couldnt she'd say we didnt care and we didnt understand what it was like being on her own.

She is so rude to people that are close to her, she thinks she is being funny the way she talks to people but she is just pig ignorant at times and she really upsets people to such an extent that she cant understand why people dont go to see her. If you tell her that she has upset someone she just laughs and says they're being stupid. I find myself in the position that she moans to me about all her family and they all moan to me about her. I have to be the never ending diplomat. (Which is why I'm airing all this now on line)

She can pull the wool over the eyes of friends, because she puts on this sweet little act, but all the family consider her a laughing stock. For years she has gone by the family nickname of "Mrs Bucket" the lady in the comedy who pronounced it "Mrs Bouquet". My cousins told me more recently her fake dependency has earned her the reputation of being like the wheelchair bound gentleman in Little Britain, who jumps up and runs round behind his mates back.

Sometimes you just gotta laugh or you'd just cry!

Answer 6

Lets just say my impending mother in law reminds me of the hemoroids I got soon after I gave birth. She is a constant reminder of why we shouldn't push so hard and exposing all of our sh**! You know the saying an opinion is like and a**hole everyone has one? Well she puts her opinion in our business so much we both have to clench our teeth and our but holes to keep the from cursing the Sh** out of the ole hag. Boy do I sound bitter! Thinking about giving the ole broad an acid bath...

Answer 7

yes she was so bad i got rid of her son the apple never falls far from the tree lol she used to tell me how to feed my babies how to change nappies how much money i could and could not spend on my children for god sake did the woman not realise i had a mother of my own oh by the way beautiful baby congratulations

Answer 8

this is very typical in-law problem! she's probably saying the same thing about you also. Why? it's never easy for 2 people to see eye to eye about everything, be it your sibblings, parents, spouse or close friend. So, with another person, we have to "give and give" - if you can't, avoid her and you will avoid problems

Answer 9

Mine has been a pain over the last 21 years. Sometimes she looks down on me and criticizes our kids. She definitely plays favorites to my husband's sisters kids. She has paid for lessons for those grandkids and never offered them to ours. It really hurts my feelings and my husband's. But I know he will never stand up to her. For the sake of my kids, I try to blow off all the negative stuff. I don't want them to have crummy feelings for the rest of their lives about their grandparents. I know they love my kids, because they are part of them and they are wonderful kids!!

Answer 10

Both of mine were evil. Might I suggest that you download "Mother-in-law Blues" by Champion Jack Dupree, it will make you laugh.
