[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are addressing the wrong problem. The is NOT that your MIL is disrespecting you (that is just a symptom) It is not that MIL is spoiling your daughter (another symptom) Your MIL is truly a shop-aholic She needs therapy, intervention...attack, address it from that angle...and you may get the results that u desire.. but realize that your MIL has a SERIOUS emotional problem...[/quote]Yes! Your MIL is an addict! You may want to talk to a therapist who is trained in dealing with families and addictions because there are steps you can take - but arguing with your MIL is probably not the way to go. Also, you should realize that chances are that addictions of one kind or another run in your dh's family so you will need to be aware of this as your daughter grows up - because she may be genetically predisposed to addictive behavior.
