[quote=Anonymous]I did not read the article. We moved coasts to be near DH’s family. It's hard. It was much easier as a nuclear family. MIL, who is the ”second wife” and occasionally babysits, has opinions about everything (e.g., is against vaccines), DH listened to her and tried to appease, there is always someone’s birthday, party, a celebration that requires our presence. We cannot make friends because all our free time is spent with the family. I left for a business trip, and MIL moved in to help but wanted to stay in our bedroom and sleep on my bed. There is no privacy; everyone is into everyone’s business. Vacations are spent with my family. We are treated as a couple of teenagers who don't know better. I liked it better before. [/quote]
