[quote=Anonymous]My MIL said this to me when I was freshly back to work (like...two days in) after my first. I called her out on it, she doubled down, and I eventually told her to get the f*** out of my house. My husband read her the riot act, she apologized, and we moved past it. I don’t necessarily advocate such a strong approach (I was so emotional!) but over the long run it worked and my MIL doesn’t mess with me any more. I think she would have never stopped niggling me until she saw a strong reaction back, and she needed to see my husband very firmly go to bat for me. She is one of those MILs who believes a son’s allegiance should be to his mother over his wife (except HER husband of course!). [/quote]
