[quote=Anonymous]I have a DIL who is prob just like you. She acts like my son’s only role in her life is to be her husband forgetting that he is a son, brother, uncle, and friend to others.

She acts all pissy and bent out of shape if I dare to invite my own son to a restaurant for dinner and want to spend quality time with just him.

Yes they are CBFC so I’m not taking my son away from his parenting responsibilities at home.

If I call my son’s phone sometimes she answers. If I am visiting my son and DIL or they are over at my house anytime my son leaves the room to talk to me she follows him and monopolizes the whole conversation interrupting him and not letting him get a word in edge wise. I can’t even ask my son one god damn question without her interrupting or answering for him.

I am so annoyed that my DIL seems to think I have to go through her to have a relationship with my own son and I’m getting the vibe she expects me to love her and treat her exactly the same as my own son. The funny thing is I actually do like my DIL but I just hate that she acts like she owns my son.

Every year I text my DIL on her birthday and I mail my son a check and she had the galls to flat out ask me why my son gets a check on his birthday when she just gets a check and I straight out told her because my son is my child. In a duh type of tone.

But I forgot the minute a man gets married he belongs to the wife only and god forbid he doesn’t have a distant relationship with his mother he is deemed a enmeshed or that he can’t cut the apron strings from his mother.

It’s almost as if he can’t be both a loyal son and a loyal husband at the same time. Like by remaining close to his mother he is betraying his wife somehow.[/quote]
