[quote=Anonymous]What you're feeling seems very reasonable, but would moving actually help? Wouldn't she just complain more, and it would be more of a hassle to see her / host her? Before my MIL moved to our state, she had started visiting more than 4 times/year for a week at a time ... it's nicer now that she's here and not staying overnight in my house, you know? It might be better to disengage a bit -- see her less, send your husband to her house to visit (with the kids, without you), put your husband in charge of meals or do delivery. Whatever it takes to remove a stressor. You could also try making a game of it, a MIL bingo of her most common complaints. When you get bingo during her visit, you get to remember an errand upstairs for a bit.[/quote]
