[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My MIL stopped texting me about this stuff when I kept making my husband text her back. I suggest y'all do the same.[/quote] This. The only texting I engage in with my MIL is to say happy birthday or other special greetings to one another. She kept trying to make family dynamics my thing and I just—never picked it up. I told FIL to his face to stop asking me to ask my husband to call more, because I’m not a secretary. I told him to his face the phone works both ways, and if he wants the son he raised to call, he should pick up the phone and ask for just that.[/quote] This here too, and I do it with DH, who tries to delegate his personal shopping and other tasks to me (we both work fulltime + jobs). Problem is, when I won't do it, he then delegates to his mother, and MIL is more than happy to enable this childishness (and gossip to anyone who will listen about all the things she "has" to do for her son).
