[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP...My therapist is female...

My problem is...I never talk ill of my MIL "just because." It is usually after a night with them, she does something or says something rude or distasteful. I point it out to DH.

Am I in the wrong?[/quote]

NP here with an awful mil.  I vent to my SIL (dh's bro's wife), but I don't say anything to dh.  There's no point. I limit my time with her.  Complaining to dh just means he either has to speak badly about his mom or defend her, neither is a good position.

When you talk to him about it, what is your goal?  If you're taking that step, it should be with a purpose.  In your shoes, I would work on limiting your exposure to her, and find other people to vent to about her behaviour.  [/quote]

OP here.

I am not bringing her bad behavior to his attention to hurt him obviously. He seems to not notice the things that she does and says that are IMO highly inappropriate and problematic. I worry he thinks they ARE ok and that makes me nervous.
