[quote=Anonymous]I will never understand why women put up with this. I feel completely drained after dealing with my husband's family for just a few hours - the incessant criticism, sarcasm, backbiting, etc. literally suck me dry. I could never put up with the situation the OP is describing. She needs to call a halt to this NOW or it will never end and she will grow to hate her MIL - and her husband. OP, your husband is taking the easy way out, in part because he is cowed by cultural expectations but more importantly because you are willing to put up with this arrangement. Toxic people are toxic people, wherever they live. Your husband needs to man up (I really hate that term, but it fits here) and draw a line in the sand with his mother. If he can't do it, then you need to. [/quote]
