[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would say something right when she says it. 
MIL: <mama's boy comment>
You: MIL, enough. I don't like the 'mama's boy' comments and you don't need to be calling Larlo names or saying those things.

If she does it again: Seriously MIL? Stop. It's disrespectful.

I could see my MIL doing this but not maliciously. She would stop the first time if I asked her to. Just depends on what kind of MIL you have. We let my MIL get away with some mild/moderate boundary crossing for awhile but once I decided I had enough we came down hard. Most of it came from my DH even when he didn't necessarily agree with me 100%. The last time she went over the line I addressed it immediately and she has retreated considerably since. Fine by me, I think it's unfortunate she can't figure out where the line is but we have gone over this stuff time and time again. I'm over it.[/quote]

Op here, thanks for the feedback. I don’t think it’s being said to be malicious rather than she feels one upped because my second son doesn’t fawn over her like my first does.  I think it’s not coming from the best place though. [/quote]
