[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My MIL has no filter, so she plain told me after the first day of her visit:"are you going to tag along all the time? I'd like to be alone with my son". The thing is, I would love that set up too, but DH hoped to spend some time all together.[/quote]

Your MIL sounds just.... lovely [/quote]

You know, I wish my MIL would admit this rather than insist that she's glad to see me too.  There's just too much water under the bridge for me to actually believe her.  I think some part of her knows she pretty much missed her chance with me.  She resented my intrusion into her life...there's very little that would ever make me believe she'd like things to be different now.[/quote]

PP here. Be careful what you wish for.  As I said, she has no filter, so she does not stop at admitting one thing and skipping over another. On Christmas, she complimented my gift to her (a set of kitchen towels) by saying that they are a "great reflection my redneck esthetics". So yeah...[/quote]

Fair enough!  My MIL has gotten a lot better at filtering herself when I'm around, but since she hasn't always done such a good job of it, I don't trust much of anything she says.[/quote]
