[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Totally agree that I don't need a reason--usually I'm the one that says that! :) As soon as DH and I say no, my MIL will immediately insert herself and start calling/texting to get us to change our minds because she doesn't want to listen to SIL's whining (SIL is 27, btw) and because she thinks she should have a say in our decisions. DH and I have stood our ground before and dealt with the resulting fallout, but I wanted to see if I was justified before taking on this battle. Thanks, DCUM![/quote] Oh, Lord. Say no. The first time your MIL inserts herself, cut it off. "MIL, we have made our decision. Please stay out of it." Any further texting, ignore. Any further phone conversation, "I am not discussing that further. I have to go." You and DH have got to start being firmer with your MIL. That behavior is ridiculous.[/quote]
