[quote=Anonymous]You said she could come, just not at that precise time. Yes, he's being unreasonable. Is there some reason why she needs/wants to come right then? It's up to your DH to communicate the timing issues to his mom, regardless of what he thinks of your job or otherwise. I agree with the PP, that this isn't necessarily about control. There are issues though -- I think they are different and probably more about communication. What he thinks of your job, what he thinks of how you manage time, whether you like his mom as much as he likes her, how you act when she's there, etc. A host of other potential discussions are involved. I like the advice to sit down rationally, rather than focusing on what you've told him and how insensitive it is (b/c I agree it is!). Just say, great about her visiting generally, and try to work something out on the timing and how that gets communicated to your MIL.[/quote]
