DILs Everywhere,

Your husband was my son for many years before he was your husband. I don’t care if he is 5 or 95 as long as I’m alive it is my “job” to lookout for him and make sure he is being treated right.

So many men work hard for their families and all their wive’s do is spend their hard earned money. As a mom of a young son I want my son to be treated kindly in his marriage and not dominated by a domineering woman in the future.

And I don’t give a rat’s ass what you think my first loyalty is always to my own son. If I think he is being taken advantage of in his marriage you bet your ass I always have that “right” to pull him aside and have a conversation about it.

I carried him for 9 months, gave birth to him, raised him into adulthood, held him while he cried, fixed his boo boos, stayed up with him all night. I will always cradle to grave protect him.

He can divorce you honey and get another wife but he can only ever have one mother.

Signed,

A mother of a young boy.[/quote]

This. Applicable to SILs as well and I have young children.[/quote]

Ok so in response to this crazy letter and I’m not OP.

Dear crazy MIL,

No it is absolutely not your job or your place to get involved in your son’s marriage just because you birthed him over 20 years ago doesn’t give you a license to run his life.

Stop playing the martyr and acting like he owes you because you did what you were supposed to do as a parent.

You are truly misled if you think your son will put your over the woman he has made vows to and lives with and possibly has children with.

If your son does back up his mommy over his own wife that’s not a win for you because that means you haven’t raised him to correctly which is to back up his immediate family which is now his wife and children.

You aren’t there 24/7 although it may feel like it to me to really know what goes on behind closed doors. So no you have no right to judge.

Stop expecting your grown son to side with you. You may have kissed a scrape knee better in 1982 but I have birthed all your son’s children, bought a house with him, share a whole life with him, made vows to stand by him until death do us part, I am the one he looks to for comfort when he has had a bad day.

You may be his mother but he didn’t exactly have a choice in who his mother was but he certainly had a choice in who his wife was and he actively chose me and he chooses me everyday. We will never really know if he would have chosen you as his mother.

Lady you have a lot more to lose as the mil than I do as the DIl. Think about it I’m married to your son and have your grandchildren. You don’t treat me right you really think your precious son will side with you? HAHA well guess again? Also guess what you really think you disrespect your grandchildren’s mother I’m gonna let you within 10 yards of your grandchildren well you are surely mistaken. And I will make sure your grandchildren know exactly why they don’t see you.

Yes couples may divorce but do you really wanna sight that as a potential possibility in your letter? That means you are routing for something negative to happen in your son’s life and lady we aren’t divorced today so quit citing hypotheticals.

You had 18 years to actively parent my husband if you couldn’t get it right in 18 years and still feel the need to actively baby and “mother” him guess you didn’t get it right the first time, huh?

Signed,
A DIL who knows there aren’t room for 3 people in a marriage. Butt out and back off MIL.[/quote]

I also want to add to my letter that if your son chose a poor wife for himself that’s another parenting fail on your end for not teaching your son how to properly be a good judge of character. Go mom!![/quote]
