I have a question would it be inappropriate for me to confront my mother in law about the way she talks to my husband and the way she treats him!! She treats him like ****!!! Would it be wrong of me to get involved??

Yes. Stay out of it. He's a big boy now. He doesn't need another mother.

You might want to speak to your husband first. See if he is willing to say something to his mother or if he would mind you saying something. It will probably cause alot of friction between you and your mother in-law if you confront her. So you better be prepared for that. If you confront her and your husband would perfer you didn't it may cause some friction between you and your husband also. Which is why I haven't said anything to my sister in-law about the way she treats her family lol.

Go to her in private and discuss this matter when you can, no I do not think it would be inappropriate...I have been there before. Be prepared for the drama she might cause though...just stay the better person...you will be fine...don't stoop lower if things get a little sour...just let her know you are coming to her as an adult and how you feel. Hopefully she will be able to take it and change a little.

How does your husband feel about the way his mom treats him? Maybe this has been going on for years and it just the way the two people interact? By all means, discuss it first with him . . .don't cause him any grief by doing something he would rather you not do . . .he may have enough already, or maybe it's water off the proverbial duck's back. Also, ask yourself, is it you or him that feels the worst about this?

I think that you should discuss it with your husband first and let him confront her after all it is his mother. Does he think that he is being treated badly, if so talk to him about it and tell him that you think that he should say something to either his mum or dad about it

It is totally fine, just don't jump her on it. Just tell her in a calm manner that you would appreciate it if she would refrain from talking to your husband the way that she does, because you find in innapropriate and mean. If she flys of the handle just ask her why she does it in the first place.

Would he stand up for you?You bet you should tell her to knock it off as you do not like the way she treats her own son whom you love very much and you will not allow anyone to mistreat him.She may get mad at you and even yell at you but stand your ground and in the end I gauranty she will respect you!Plus she will keep her trap shut around you.Just what you want!!Gods bless and good luck!

Probably. If you treat him really good in front of her, maybe you'll set an example. Try and change through example first. Of course, if things get out of control, you might want to step in....It just depends on the situation.

HE should confront her, maybe he likes it that way?? anyways people reach a point till they cant take it anymore, just wait for your husband to get there and be supportive of him when he finnally talks to her abt it

some things are better left unsaid. if your husband wants to say something to her then that is his call. i know it woudl be hard to not say anything cause im that way too. But if you say anything to her then you will be the one being a *itch. then it would cause more problems. hes a man right so let him be the one to stand up to her. apparently he feels no need at this time to do so but when he finally does tell her praise him for standing up for himself.. great comfort then
