[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your SIL is an asshole and totally out of line.  The "mean mommy" crack, the not handing you back your daughter (!!!!), the announcing your infertility (!) - I'd struggle to be civil to her.

You are not overly sensitive.  She is wat out of line.

I'm Irish and I grew up in a street with lots of Italian friends.  I agree with a PP above: you're gonna have to throw an elbow.  Subtlety will not work.  Kindness will do nothing.  You can't avoid your DH's family without blowing up your marriage.

So you gotta reclaim your space.  She is a bully and a jerk and the only language she will respect is authority.  You are your daughter's mom.  Throw the elbow.  Twice if you need to.

"Maria, get your hands off my daughter this instant.  And the next time you hold on to her when I ask for her is the last time you hold her this year.  I am not kidding."

"Maria, shut your mouth about my personal business.  I don't talk about your resproductive plans and you have no business opening your mouth about mine."

"Maria, she's my daughter, not yours.  If you want to spend time with her, quit making cracks about me. I know you want your own daughter but you can't make mine yours by saying shut about me."

I am not kidding.  You gotta be harsh.  Throw the fucking elbow.  She deserves it and it is the only thing she will respect.  Physically get in her face if you need to. [/quote]

If you do this your in-laws will think you are psycho, just FYI.[/quote]
