[quote=Anonymous]I try to think of it as MIL not feeling empowered to live her truth. Basically she doesn’t actually want to have to watch the kids or cook us things or run errands, but she constantly begs/insists that she wants/needs to do these things. So for recent kid birthday, she asked me the menu, what can she bring, I told her I am making XYZ, would you like to bring A? A long rant about how ai am taking on too much, she is retired, she has so much time, she wants to help! I said, okay, well, would tou like to do A, B, or C. All three! Yes, please let me help! Week of the party she complained to DH nonstop for days about how she had so much on her plate and how was she going to get it all done. I keep saying “never again” but about once a year I forget and we have to repeat the whole disaster.[/quote]
