What would you do? Would you sit there and talk nice or would you be pi**ed, and hurt by that.
--There is more to it than that, I just spendt 4 hours going to hospital, picking up my mother in law, stopping at the store for her, coming to my house, making her bed, and going out to the pharmacy for her meds. my hubby said he wouldn't do it now "i'll do it in the morning." The med is coumadin and she needs it @ 9am. What do you make of it? I can take it.

Sounds like you're being taken for granted (and that is an understatement)!
Let me get this straight, you're doing all this work for his mom, and he can't even deign to give you a few seconds of attention?
This is so bad, I can only think this isn't an isolated incident. What's been going on surrounding this? I can't think you've been married very long or this is not atypical behavior, because I can't imagine anyone putting up with those shenanigans for any appreciable length of time.
Tell him to wake up and get in the game, because he's losing!

Is he a loser? He has no right to be that way. He hasn't got the decency to look at you while you care for his mother, honey he's a jerk. You can try and speak to him again and if that doesn't work strip in front of the TV. If that doesn't get his attention, I'd call a lawyer.

i would unplug the tv and cut the cord... hide the remote near the cleaning products.... you know, somewhere where he never goes...... i would tell him that tv is just a distraction... just an instrument that is meant to temporarily 'entertain' us... hopefully inform us.. whatever though. Then go out and get a huge bucket of delicious fried chicken and some beer... bring it home and eat and drink all the beer and chicken without sharing it with him.. when he tells you he feels left out and ignored tell him..."yeah... i dealt with it,... now you deal with it"

may I suggest you stand up to him just a little... you are his WIFE , NOT slave or maid.... grab the remote, turn off the tv. throw the remote out the door and stand your ground... say to him. * ok, bud we have got to talk... I am ur wife and you are not a part of the couch.*, and then procede to tell him that she is HIS mother and so on...... I think you will shock him into hearing you !!! God bless

well the best thing is to do it yourself. it's the realm of the in-law relationship struggles. what you should do is teach ur man a lesson. be gone for a couple of days and see how he reacts for your departure. see if he can do things on his own when nobody is reliable.

throw the TV out the front door so he will know you are there.Or when you are in bed make the TV more important than him and see how he likes it.
