[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]DH also needs to understand that some women will drive a wedge between their sons and their wives. So he needs to decide early on if he will stand by you or side with his mother. If he is a mama's boy, he will side with her and you will be miserable. Best to get out NOW if he's like that.

The reverse is often true, also.  Some Owen will do anything to drive a wedge between their husband and his mother--a ridiculous turf war.  Face it some women are only happy if they are the "only" as if the human heart isn't big enough yo love more than one person or to live different people in different ways. I'll never understand why women feel the need to act this way.  Dreading my son growing up after reading all the hateful mil comments on this site.[/quote]

A lot of time, the MIL is difficult/controlling to deal with that makes me wonder why they act that way? [/quote]

Interesting, because what I have seen among my friends and family are equally difficult/controlling DIL.  It is rarely a one-way street and I do believe it has to do with the "turf" wars mentioned above. Sons can love both their wives and their mothers…and their sisters.  It isn't a contest and yet, too often all parties involved act as if it is indeed.  I have quite a ways to go before I become a mil, but I do think everyone needs to examine their own behavior before pointing the finger.  It isn't right to put our spouse's in the position of having to chose.  They should be free to love us all.[/quote]
