[quote=Anonymous]Tell them to take it up with their son. I don't make plans with my ILs anymore after the offended me too many times. I also don't stop DH from making plans and I always say yes to their plans. If DH wants them to have birthday/Christmas gifts he must organize it. Unless it is a basket that I'm doing for my family too, then I order 2 and put their name to recieve one (because it's easier). For me the final straw was getting mail addressed to Mrs. Son's Name after 5 year of marriage, chronic questions about "I don't understand why you would want to work/hire a nanny/have friends independent of DH's". I was just done. 15 years of marriage later (20 total), we're so much happier and strong. Now his parents need care and they are looking AT ME, not their son. Nope, not a chance of that happening. They can take it up with their son. Just because I'm a woman doesn't mean it's up to me.[/quote]
