[quote=Anonymous]I posted about it not being a bad thing. OP, you are a nice person. I am an immigrant myself, from Eastern Europe, and also independent and I had trouble with my own sexist mom towards my DD.(hopefully you will not face that issue down the road). You sound kind and nice and try to understand her motives. It doesn't sound like she is MIL from hell, just from another country. Since your DH is clueless(as I suspect many men from his culture are?) find online where are the ethnic shops that your MIL might like and then have your DH take her and his dad. Or maybe your FIL might like a nap during that time? Suggest to your DH that he comes home early few days and go for dinner with them while you work and stay a bit later. Did you mention kids? One day this might be a great activity with grand kids. Have her write her recipes down...My own mom wrote the recipes for me when I married my American DH, and just for laughs now, my own mother wrote on that cookbook, never ever live with his or your parents... And now, 26 years later she is more than willing to move in with me, but I am sticking by her advice! Ha, thanks mom![/quote]
