[quote=Anonymous]I stopped when it was clear that he would get all of the praise and I would get all of the blame for any and all gestures, efforts and logistics. If we made it to a tricky event, it was him who got all the thanks and praise even though I was the one who figured out a way to take off work and I was the one who did all the packing and logistical planning. If I reminded him time after time to send flowers for his mom’s birthday, he alone got thanked, never mind that of course it was my money, too, and the card was from both of us. But then if we decided not to go to his cousin’s destination wedding (no kids wedding and we had a baby at the time), it was me who took all the blame for the decision. Nope! Now I leave them entirely to him and don’t even respond to needling or negative or questioning texts. MIL once texted me about being disappointed in this or that and I responded, “Take it up with the son you raised.”[/quote]
