[quote=Anonymous]I struggle with this and my IL's are local. And they only come to our house because MIL is a chain smoker and we won't go there. (I won't let my asthmatic toddler go there, that is.) I withdraw almost completely when they arrive. I go to the basement and fold laundry. I leave on short trips to run errands. I just can't stand to be around my MIL. I think she is relieved, frankly, because she is very possessive of her son and prefers to have him and her grandson (who she calls "her baby", wev) to herself without me there as interloper. At first I would stake my ground and stay around. Now I realize that life is too short and I have better things to do with those hours.[/quote]
