[quote=Anonymous]FIL is an alcoholic and physically unstable. Used to scare the crap out of me when he would pick up my children and hold them near an open flight of steps. Thank goodness my kids are older now.

MIL is bored? Nosy? She’s only visited us twice. The first time, I came home from work and discovered she can gone through some of our files. The second time she visited my son was scheduled for surgery and last minute we heard she was coming into town. She had been at my BIL’s (several hours away) “helping” taking care of their newborn. She came for a week and other than cooking one meal and cleaning out the toaster (which she reminded me 3x that she did it) she did absolutely nothing. In fact, my husband ended up having to take the full week off work to take her sightseeing.

She ended up gossiping about the BIL and his wife. She also told us how much money each of my husband’s siblings & spouses made. She kept pumping my husband about his salary. He wouldn’t share. She doesn’t get how higher salaries are necessary to have a middle class lifestyle in NYC and DC.

Later we found out MIL told the BIL with the newborn that my husband and I begged her to come down to help with our son that had surgery. She used us as the excuse to leave.
