[quote=Anonymous]This nonsense occasionally comes up in my family. My mother asked me what gift I was buying for my MIL’s birthday. I said “nothing” and she should ask my DH because she is his mother. My mother knows very well that I work longer hours and a more demanding job than my DH, yet still expects me to handle all the emotional and physical labor for the family. She is still baffled that my DH is an equal partner and at times the primary parent. Agree with PPs, we need to fight back and drop the rope, otherwise nothing will ever change and our daughters will have the same expectations. [/quote]
