[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This has happened throughout our marriage but this year, I've either seen an uptick or the decisions have gone from minor and not annoying to moderate and annoying.

Recent examples: To maintain his license to practice in the DMV, they registered as living at our address.  As a result, they got our parking stickers and I got a ticket. He fixed that but now I get dozens of catalogs each week. We don't get the mail daily b/c we can't deal with it daily. In our old life, we just got it on the weekend and rarely was it too much to fit in the box.

Second, and I just figured this one out last night, he gave them access to our netflix account. netflix has been blocking me "randomly" for months. JUST last night I figured out why. I asked DH to fix it, he refused, so I did. My FIL was defending his use of our account and I just politely told him to stop and had to tell him a few times.

I'm so pissed at being put in this position.  He tells them yes on things, then tells me, and when I object, he gets mad at me. It's pissing me off and I'm not sure how to talk to him about it.

Any positive ways to address this? BTW: He's going to be pissed that I told them to stop using netflix but I have a chronic health condition and have surgery scheduled for Friday. I need my passive entertainment working fine and frankly, he needs the second access point to entertain the kids.

Rant over, positive words requested.[/quote]

1. Using your address is probably fraud of some sort. Now if you really want to play hardball you can threaten to report them but be prepared to lose your marriage as a result. 
2. Parking tickets -- if it's for them, oh well, don't worry about it. 
3. Catalogues -- really it takes more than 30 seconds to toss them? I have kids too and it takes me 5 minutes at most to sort through the mail into "toss it" and "keep it" piles. 
4. Netflix -- if they can't use their own or an expanded Netflix there is some issue they have going on.[/quote]
