[quote=Anonymous]My Indian in laws only visit when my husband is willing to take off and entertain them. They, too, expect the woman (me) to wait on them, and my MIL in particular believes that she can say/do anything she wants and I just need to take it - she used to tell me stories about how funny it was that her own mother lived with her son and DIL, and hated/mistreated the DIL. They also complain about not spending time with our child, but when they are around, they generally ignore the child/interact for a few minutes and then get bored and want attention from us. It's a lose/lose situation. Agree with PPs - set boundaries and enforce. Don't let them determine what your duties/responsibilities are. And, the boundaries should be set by your husband.[/quote]
