[quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't say a word. I don't enjoy spending time with my MIL either. If I don't make plans to see her, it doesn't happen. Periodically, my husband says something like, "we need to spend time with my mom!" I smile and nod and say, "Oh, yes!" And then I do nothing. We see her 4 times per year as a family. My husband maybe makes an effort to see her 2 more times and she lives 40 minutes away. Stop inviting her to anything as a treat. Never take her out in public. Don't complain about her to people who know her. That is what your girlfriends are for. Put a sock in it. What would you say if someone complained about your mom? Let your husband plan outings with her. [/quote]
