[quote=Anonymous]Yes - my MIL is great. My FIL is fine (kind of boring and grumpy but a good person) Things MIL does right: Clearly cares about all of of (it’s clear she enjoys time together, she knows details about me and the kids, happy to babysit and dog sit). Asks my kids about their interests, asks me about my family, my job. Is not at ALL overbearing or critical. Even on things I know are hard for her (not raising kids in the church for example) she has never pressured us about. She won’t give advice unless it is invited - almost to a fault. Treats me as 100% part of their family and has from the beginning. Small example: always gets me and her other DIL personal Christmas presents on par to what she gets her sons. Every once in a while will give me compliments that show she thinks highly of me/is ‘proud’ of me. She’s not an emotive person, so those mean a lot. In short though: she’s loving, and giving, but stays out of our business[/quote]
