[quote=Anonymous]Hate to have to say this, but OP think before you speak. Don't over share details of your own life. I have a similar MIL and I let her ramble on about her own life, but have learned to never, ever share very much with her about my life or my children. I've had to establish clear boundaries early on; my MIL could not be in the delivery room or even waiting room when my babies were born (she's a nervous wreck on a good day), she could not accompany me to well child checkups, I will not discuss gynecological or birth or conception-related details - all things she's asked me about... In the case of my MIL, anything I say is fodder for gossip on FB. I no longer have an account for this reason. Sad because years later, my MIL knows nothing about me. Maybe my DH will drop a mention in a conversation, but she never asks a follow up question and can't wait to get back to her favorite subject:herself. [/quote]
