[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I imagine most people have some in law "issues" due to little personality clashes or differences of doing things but only on a minor scale and can sometimes complain about it but not in an overly serious way, and this is what it's like IRL for most people. It's the same as complaining about your parents' foibles but still loving them dearly. But nothing like some of the deep seated in law hatred you see on here that does make me think the real problem isn't the in law but the poster in question. [/quote] See I think the reverse. This board is anonymous so people feel free to say things they wouldn’t IRL. I’ll be genuinely glad when my abusive ahole FIL finally dies..but I would never admit that to anyone IRL. I just say something milder like “he and DH clash” etc. People are judgy and often the issue is too complex to describe in a few minutes [/quote] This. My BIL made a comment about things changing when the mother dies. He was in tears from her being so mean one year. She attacked me for letting kid use an iPad. A year later, she gets an iPad and can’t stop talking about how amazing it is. I no longer spend time with her alone bc she goes on the attack. We will shorten our visits and visit less often. She is a b-tch to everyone...not just me and then wonders why people do not come over. For those of you saying you can’t understand this or suggest it is the DIL, you have no idea. You speak from limited experience with your decent in laws. I will gladly trade with you. I am going grey rock on MIL. Don’t care if I see her again after the things she has done. [/quote]
