[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No. I doubt she is a mil. I agree with her and I am no mil. Some of these mil hating threads are beyond ridiculous and petty. She simply did what someone else was bitching about a started her own thread.  Her premise is pretty straightforward.[/quote]

ITA.  Some of the MIL threads are indeed petty.  However, some are not so petty; and some MILs can be quite trifling and antagonistic themselves. If (for example) my only vacation time was limited to time away with a petty, depressed, bitter MIL who delights in digging at a DIL who did nothing wrong - that would be a nightmare!  Especially if the DILs only "crime" was to be extremely different from MIL - and MIL somehow took it as a personal affront, instead of embracing differences.  Aren't we all (in this generation, at least) teaching our children to embrace differences?  Isn't that the right and humane thing to do?

[b]Find some sympathy in your heart.  Isn't that one of few traits (besides opposable thumbs) that differentiates us from animals?  Not everyone can be like you. [/b][/quote]

Perhaps you should take your own advice.  Try having a little sympathy for the MILs who have to deal with the petty, antagonistic, jealous, controlling DILs.  It isn't just a one way street as many of the recent post of so aptly demonstrated.[/quote]
