[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I understand wanting to know your child's plans for the day. However, your MIL hardly kidnapped her. When you say "stayed out all night", you clearly don't mean "ALL NIGHT." If I got home and my 13 year old was nowhere to be found and I couldn't get in touch with her, I would be calling the cops, not having a text message argument about it with my husband.

To me, it seems like you are making a big deal about something that is not the biggest deal ever. It sounds like you are frustrated by what you perceive as years of disrespect and are projecting that frustration onto this one situation. The result is that it looks like a big overreaction and your family thinks you're nuts.

You need to have a conversation with your husband about how you feel about his mom's behavior. It's about more than this one incident, and you should have a reasonable expectation that the conversations you have with your husband privately remain private. That said, there is really not a lot that can be done about the phone theft at this point. He got the phone back, and presumably when she said "LEAVE THAT CRAZY WOMAN", he told her no.[/quote]

Wow. OP is the crazy one? Are you a current or future over attached mom to adult son?  DH here with crazy mom and If my mom ever pulled that shit (reading a private convo and then taking my fucking phone?!) her ass would be on the street and it would be a long time and several apologies and other amends making before she set foot in our house again. That is absolutely unacceptable and horrible behavior. So many boundaries crossed I don't  even know where to start

OP your momma's boy husband needs to nut up and back you on this. And you need to explain to your daughter in a calm emotionless manner that grandma has a personality disorder and until gma can show she understands and respects boundaries she won't be in contact with any of you.

+1. I agree with all of this.

Your MIL came to stir the pot, she stirred it, and now she gets to have her butt kicked out of the kitchen. You don't need this person in your house (though how to get her out of your marriage is obviously more complicated). She's trying to get under your skin and seems to want to break you guys up. Is there a long history of this sort of thing? Did she oppose your marriage?[/quote]
