[quote=Anonymous] OP, you are smart to cut such toxicity out of your life. MILs don't have an obligation to "like" DILs, but they do have an obligation to be "nice". Isn't that what we tell our young children? Don't MILs have parents to teach them the basics in life? I can't imagine having someone 'new' in the family, and not being consistently warm and welcoming - especially if that person never, in actuality, did anything wrong. I think a lot of MILs resent their young DILs for no real reason. Pettiness is not a real reason. If MILs want to be considered any kind of "matriarch" (vomit) in the family, they need to step it up and act in a graceful manner, consistently (not just for appearances). After all, MILs are *supposed to be* older and wiser. They need to behave accordingly. [/quote]
