[quote=Anonymous]DH'a family is like this (think MIL not speaking to me in my own house for five hours after I handed her her granddaughter and tried to give her a hug or leaving every room as soon as I enter it). It didn't help when DH said anything to MIL about the nasty comments; they just got worse and more cleverly hidden. But once I convinced him the situation was not okay, I got free reign to respond as I wanted (I chose always polite but pushing back on petty complaints with a relentlessly positive attitude) and also read books, went on walks, ran errands, caught up on sleep, and made plans with friends. Once I felt like DH was on my side and I had some control, it was better. I even started to love the snide comments and eye rolls behind my back. [/quote]
