[quote=Anonymous]My MIL is horribly abusive. But I adore my cousin's MIL and some of my ex's parents, esp their moms. They are kind, generous, thoughtful, conscientious and have good boundaries. They are sincere and good-hearted. I appreciate when they tell their son off for being unreasonable or a jerk. None of this 'my son is the only perfect human being ever' nonsense. It is very obvious when someone only sees you as an incubator and slave labor. You aren't a person or you are the enemy for 'stealing' their sonsband away. I think the issue is personality, actually. It is less about the specific relationship, I think, except they tend to let their crazy run wild a bit more than say, at work. The horrible and less than amazing MILs tend to be that way in the rest of their relationships as well. [/quote]
