[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is the wrong crowd to ask that question.[/quote] Let me rephrase, what qualities/traits do you see in your MIls which you would never replicate with significant others of your children?[/quote] I really like my MIL. I've known her since I was in college. She asks non-judgmental questions about my life, my job, my family, my hobbies, etc. She really listens to me. Calls me to congratulation me on promotions, etc. and doesn't just tell my husband to tell me. She remembers my favorite dish she makes and makes it when we visit. Keeps my favorite wine in the fridge. She's always made me feel like she cares about me as a person and not as an appendage of her son. If she is judging how we're raising our kids, I've never heard a negative peep about it. She's not a "mother" to me but she is my family and I care about her tremendously and genuinely enjoy her company.[/quote]
