Hearing my mom talk about how he isn't a good son in law and how his side of the family suck is really affecting and influencing my feelings towards DH as well, which I know is not healthy at all. I'm trying my best to ignore her comments. Should I bring it up with DH at all or just keep it to myself? Is there anything I can say to my mom? My marriage is already weak as it is. [/quote]

Another way to look at it is badmouthing your son in law means your mother isn't a good mother in law.  Badmouthing the other grandparents telling your grandchild that family doesn't love them also makes your mother suck.  This should be affecting your feelings towards your mother not your husband.

Your mother is essentially trying to drive a wedge in your marriage and make your child feel less loved by other family because of her own sense of insecurity or jealousy.  How do you tell your mom - you tell her that she is being hurtful to other family and to think other people's feelings and that it isn't appropriate in your household and that if you cant resolve this then she'll have to go.

Being the dutiful Asian child you won't do this, you'll let your marriage suffer.[/quote]
