[quote=Anonymous]This is a family forum so people will naturally come here to vent or talk about problems with their family and that will include in-laws.  It isn't a DCUM problem it's all over and no it isn't the DIL's fault that she is upset and doesn't want to take whatever her MIL is dishing out. Thanks for the victim blaming that's the same as saying all women ask for it because of what they wear.

There are a ton of actual in-law forum's specifically for this issue.  It's very small minded to think that just a handful of hateful DIL's are congregating on this one site.

Some of the issues I have seen on these forums are MIL's putting nuts in food when the DIL or Grandchild has a nut allergy because they simply don't believe in allergies.

Wanting alone time with grandchildren telling the DIL that they don't want her around.  They don't want DIL to breastfeed because they believe the DIL is keeping the baby from them.  They hold a crying baby and won't return the baby to the mom because they can soothe bub better.

Making constant insulting remarks about the DIL.  Taking over their house by decorating it, re-arranging furniture.

None of these things are normal but you are suggesting that the DIL should shut up and take it.

So I ask all of you.  Have you ever walked into your MIL's house and actually moved her sofa and TV around and then told her your lasagne is so much nicer than hers.  Would you ever do that to anyone?  I dare say the answer is no. Because it's unhinged and not normal.[/quote]
