[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Skip brunch. Tell you DH that you can't handle his mother's rude comments when she's drunk and disorderly, but you also feel it displays her true feelings for her to talk like that when she's uninhibited. Don't confront her - that's for DH to do. You just distance as much as you can and be aloof when you have to see her. If she does say something to you, say what I said above - that her comments must display her true feelings and you don't wish to deal with that negativity.[/quote] OP, this is the way. My MIL is very similar and this is how I play it. I can’t get myself in trouble so I keep my mouth shut and give her nothing to work with. I would also bow out of brunch tomorrow. [/quote]
