You already know the answer. Why do you need the confirmation? Sounds like this woman is being a manipulative jerk. This is not worth so much time and emotion. I can tell this is eating away at you but this too shall pass.
If she wants to talk to her son, let her - if that's what your husband wants. Sounds like a lot of drama for nothing. Poeple do things to piss each other off and life goes on. Don't sweat this stuff.
Keep your distance though. This woman sounds manipulative and she probably wants you to be as unhappy as she is and she'll work toward that end.
The best revenge is a happy life. Work toward that end.
Take care of what's important.
Good luck.

Oh dear!!! What have you said to upset the "Wicked Witch from the West"???? Must have been something awfully big as she seems to want to forget you and her son even exist. Now you know what you did or said to upset her and it must have been awful. I would love to know what the argument was all about but if you feel you were just being honest and not bitchy or anything concerning whatever the subject was then maybe you don't owe her an apology??? But if you know you really went too far you need to get on the phone or in person and make a sincere apology and say you lost your temper and that you are so embarrassed about that and you don't expect her to forgive you but to please find it in her heart to consider forgiving you as you are married to her son and you love him dearly (if that is true??).

People say a lot of things in the heat of passion that they don't own once they cool down.
Your mother-in-law certainly is upset and what she said is about disowning. This has to hurt.
Hopefully you can sort it out once the heat dies down a bit. At least she's not bottling it up - it would be worse to have them holding a grudge long-term.
Good luck!

It probably means she was at the end of her rope and had nothing left - so she went for the jugular. People are human and say stupid things. I'd figure out where I was wrong in the situation and apologize for my part. Whether SHE apologizes or not, you need to try to make things right for the sake of your husband.

I would never think to fight with my children and their spouses and tell them something like that. Your MIL needs to grow the hell up and stop being such a drama queen.

Yes I would take it that I was disowned. I would let her be. She drew the line and I would stay on my side of it.

I would ask your mother in-law to clarify the statement.
It's a very harsh statement to make. It usually means that they no longer wish to talk to you.

Sounds to me as if she just removed you'all from the family.
