[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hang out on the babycenter site for in-law issues (Dealing With Inlaws) sometimes. There's definitely a strain of MILs and grandmothers who go completely insane and possessive about grandchildren. Not sure what's behind it -- I assume it's something to do with feeling like they had no other important role in life other than being a mother. They really do seem to be trying to relive motherhood. May also have something to do with aging. Believe me, it is not a blessing to have a MIL like this. It's weird and invasive, and not conducive to having a healthy family relationship.
