[quote=Anonymous]I had an issue with this with my MIL. I finally addressed it directly with her (after she shared details of my physical status in a prenatal visit with about 40 people most of whom I didn't know. I talked to her very directly and told her that I felt very uncomfortable with personal details being shared without my knowledge or control. I asked her not to share any information without checking with me first and gave her very clear directions about what details I was comfortable with being more public. FWIW, she reacted to it very well - never meant to offend me, etc... And I learned to be extremely clear when sharing information - this is for family, this can be shared widely, this is deeply personal and only for you and DH, etc... I'm a big believer in my husband handling his people and my handling mine, but sometimes I just have to handle it directly for it to be effectively managed. (And my husband was ok with me having this conversation of course.)[/quote]
