[quote=Anonymous]I'd be concerned that, if literally every time you speak with her she voices her opinion about DC's school, she might be saying something to DC when she's alone with him/her. If there is no other reason you want to stand up to her, this should be it. DC shouldn't be hearing negative things about his/her parents' decisions, especially at such a young age.

OP, you don't owe this woman an explanation, no matter how tempting it may be. You don't need to show her research, and yes, your husband needs to stand up to mommy.

You're talking about "MIL isn't on board with our raising a bilingual child." So what? Is she raising the kid with you? If so you've got much bigger problems than her opinion about what school you and your husband decide to send your child to. This isn't MIL's child, so she doesn't get a say in it. End of story.

And tell her such, in whatever way you need to so that she'll shut up. And if she doesn't,  don't see her/talk to her as much. Pull back, and either she'll get the message or go crazy, but either way you'll know what you're dealing with.[/quote]
