[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems like you see the only solution as you being completely passive and your DH handling the situation. Why have you not spoken up for yourself in 8 years for Pete's sake? If she's a bully, say something. You are not going to receive a reward in heaven for being a silent passive victim.[/quote] I agree. Bully her right back. Never raise your voice though; the person who keeps a normal tone generally wins. If she's disrespectful to you in your own home, ask her to leave. Set some boundaries. She has to be civil or she can't be around you. The difference is you offered to withdraw from the holidays. You and your husband should insist the MIL withdraws until the behavior changes. Isolate her, not yourself.[/quote]
