[quote=Anonymous]Op, you are so smart to consider this problem now. I, too, had a good relationship with my mil until we had a child. She bought an entire room full of stuff before the kid was even born. We've had several conversations about limiting what she gives our child, and we have to revisit it every few months. It totally sucks and has changed our relationship. Makes it very tense for everyone. She just spent over $1,300 on our 3 year old at christmas. It makes me physically ill because we don't want our child growing up spoiled or feeling entitled. We don't have room for everything, and we don't share her values that our kid needs a new outfit every week. It's incredibly stressful. She has a real problem, and we are going to talk to her about it. Again. [/quote]
