It is a very, very sad reality when the other IN-LAWs always berate their own and only son and my daughter every single time they get together in  their (son's home.)  While they do love their two young granddaughters, they literally "dislike" their son, an only child.  And well DIL, especially for MIL, is just a red dot for the bull to get going charging at whenever she can.  My daughter took a chance on "good behavior" of her in-laws and invited them down to celebrate a milestone birthday this weekend of their son, AND they would have time with the girls overnight, which they prefer.  Well the minute SIL and DD walked into the house, the carping began - dirty house, awful parents etc. and to spite them they let one of the girls who had a cold run outside an play today.   There is definitely mental illness on the In-LAWS part, but when it spills over repeatedly into the young family it is just very frustrating and really can't continue as it will impact the girls very soon.

We sent a gift card to cover the cost of the meet-up birthday gathering in a bar and SIL had a great time and was very appreciative.  DD had only asked MIL to wrap to photos and get out to special cards from the girls for a simple party with them today.  Well, needless to say no photos wrapped nor cards out AND no suggestion of eating out or ordering in what they would like were acceptable so off in a huff MIL and FIL drove to their own miserable existence.

[b]Guess what I am saying is that for any MIL and FIL who can only find fault with a DIL or SIL, maybe it is best to stay put for your holiday and not bring stress in their home AND especially if you do not like or respect your own son or daughter, do stay home and eat your own fat turkey because in that way there will be nobody to bother you.And everyone will have so much to be truly thankful for.[/b][/quote]
