[quote=Anonymous]I’m definitely like this with my MIL and no one else (other than a former boss who irrationally hated me and tried to tank my career). PPs above have identified most of the issues: MIL gossips, is super judgmental, plays favorites with my kids - and randomly yells at them when they do something she thinks is wrong, and is an ultimate bean counter. She is also obsessed with money - wants to know how much a random friend of my son’s new house cost, how much do we spend on summer camp, how much my best friends husband earns. It’s exhausting. She’s exhausting. And she insists on staying at our house over a hotel or air B and B. So I am formal with her and not warm. I love her, but can’t stand to be around her for more than a couple of hours. [/quote]
