[quote=Anonymous]This is my MIL. The best tactic we've found is to limit the flow of information. Obviously that doesn't work all the time and you can't tie yourself up in knots over it, but just NOT mentioning things is a good first step. So when my DD spent the night at my moms for the first time, we just didn't tell my MIL that happened. For other thingstry parroting back what she's saying to you. She'll hear how ridiculous it sounds (hopefully!). So you'd say "huh mom, so you'd like me to make sure Larla never does anything new without you there to witness it? Is that what you're saying? Because that doesn't seem to be in Larlas best interest". [/quote]
