[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP your mother in law sounds like an awful person- I also have a truly awful and difficult MIL who has done many manipulative things to come between me and my husband. She is always the victim and will do anything to create drama to pit us against each other - this has been going on for 24 years. So - seeing that we have survived this long, the one piece of advice I can give to you - if your husband wants to have a relationship,with her - is let him handle this. He is in a terrible situation and must know his mom is bat shit crazy. He needs to protect you/your dog/and your kid. He is in a tough situation, but my husband finally saw the light and he manages her. She only stayed with us 3 times in 24 years. We do see her but it is infrequent. Keeping a relationship with her was his choice - I did not make him choose between her or me, but it was up for him to deal with it and somehow it has workedand basically we are not a part of her life but he is. Not ideal - but she's happy to be away from useless that she has him to herself. Sad but true. Works for us. [/quote] I agree. Someone who shoves a small, very sick dog onto the floor and then creates a big scene about it it crazy. She is also pushing your boundaries, OP. My MIL used to tell us how to raise our dogs, demanding that we do this and do that. I am a professional in animal training. My dogs are well behaved -- hers are out of control. But just like a dog, she tried to push herself into my business. Stand by your boundaries OP! And anyone who has paid those vet bills certainly does not want a return visit due to a relative hurting the dog. Its is toy dog, right? 6 lbs or so?[/quote]
