Open your mouth and stick up for yourself. Try to remain as respectful of them as they are of you - one way or another.
For forty years I did not and ended up being verbally abused by a number of in-laws - not so much mother & father in laws, but rather sisters and brothers in law. It was a great relief when I did finally explode and began sticking up for myself.

Oh, Jesus...In-laws...What a pain in the butt they can be. Evidently, they have no lives of their own. We should probably just feel sorry for them. Understand, you'll be opening a can of worms to tell them what you think, but what the hell -- it's your marriage, and none of their business.

if you are the wife and they are your husbands parents then you need to talk to him about them and he should go to them, it isnt your place too, but if he wont then you need to do it. we had a lot of problems with my in laws but finally my husband set up boundaries and we are all getting along. he read this great book boundries by dr henry cloud that really helped. good luck

Say what you want, just remember there will be consequences, and be prepared to handle them when they happen.

avoid them as much as possible, and when you can't, just remain silent
