[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I have a nasty, nasty, nasty MIL. And if I were to give an advice to my younger childless self, I'd suggest getting a divorce. I throwing it out there, because it's not going to get better, only worse. Think about it. [/quote]

Worst advice ever. OP should divorce her husband because his sick parents like to play nasty mind games - and OP and her DH both know it and are on the same team? I'll say it again: worst advice ever. Some of you people are ridiculously quick to tell total strangers to divorce.[/quote]

OP, you need to spend less time with them, and make sure whatever time you decide upon is limited in length of time.  i.e.:  if you see them for a holiday, make it so you arrive at a certain time, and agree to leave at a certain time.  Never stay with them.

My MIL is toxic, and goes on about SIL, as if SIL (and by association, SIL's DH and DC) is the second coming of Christ.  Ditto whomever just got married - always "the most beautiful bride I have ever seen" - even if she barely knows them, and even if they are not remotely....well, you get the point. Its comical.  We laugh about it the whole way home.

As PP mentioned about the wedding - my MIL was a pill, and only set the stage for her future behavior.  Frankly, her sour grapes has nothing to do with me, but her own perception of her own crappy life.  Not my problem.

Don't let your MIL's nastiness get in the way of your happiness. Ever.
