Smurky, hate to say it but you’re husband is a bit of a blouse! He’s got to get a grip and i don’t really think you can do much more than you’re already doing. It may get him down that he isn’t dealing with her behaviour, but surely it will only be a matter of time before he steps up to the plate and does his job! Best of luck but that man’s gotta toughen up!
Do you think I am mean?
My Mother In law is no different then any of the Mother In-laws you have. Manipulative and great at guilting her children to high extremes. (Smirk and all) She provokes problems and enjoys it. I have told my husband that if he cannot take charge and deal with his own mother then i will not feel obligated to continue interaction. Period! Doesn’t bother me. But his mother makes fun of him calling him my puppet, you can tell that the stress is taking a toll on him. Now i feel bad that I am hurting him because of this. My husband doesn’t seem to care “if the problems his momma causes” hurts me and our children. When he is willing to stick his foot up her butt then I will be willing to compromise. If not then I am not willing to subject myself or my children to the abusive environment.
