[quote=Anonymous]Wow-my MIL was a total baby hog, but never went that far. Is this the first grand? (Our situation got much better when there were more grandkids so she got lots of baby time with more than just our first) Is she saying it in fun? Then someone (DH, hopefully) should tell her it's not funny. Does she really mean all that "I'm better than mommy" stuff? Does she have boundary issues in general about other life choices? Then you need to make it clear whose child it is and who is in charge of making decisions about baby's upbringing. Get DH in your corner and make things clear--probably by being firm over time so she really gets it. And if she won't stop saying it when she knows it's bothering you, maybe you need to visit less often until she catches on. Good luck.[/quote]
