[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And why can't your husband be counted on to gently, but firmly talk about this? Maybe you guys should stop living all fakey fake and gingerly confront MIL with the truth?[/quote] Normally I would agree with you, but we cannot assume that DH agrees to this. I do not know too many men who would agree with DW saying the things about his mom that OP said in her original post. So...it could be that OP is looking for a 2 for 1 strategy. How to pitch it to DH and how to pitch it to MIL. Personally, I think there are issues both ways. OP admits that she cannot stand MIL but she admits that MIL dotes on DS. So, I wonder how much of this being driven by OP's dislike of MIL. Otherwise, I agree. Let DH do the heavy lifting although I think hiding behind the nanny would be a cowardly thing to do. OP and her DH should be firm but honest.[/quote]
