[quote=Anonymous]Sounds like you're handling it well OP. And there are lots of great lines offered here for comebacks. I would only be able to tolerate it graciously for a limited amount of time also. I have two MILs and one of them does a ton of this kind of thing, except it's usually framed in terms of how martyred she is/was. I pretty commonly use variations on "well, I never would have gotten married at all, let alone had kids, in that scenario." Sometimes I say it laughingly and sometimes I say variations on it pretty seriously - a la you wouldn't be a grandmother if my life looked like that so perhaps you should keep it to yourself! Or, "you know Madge, you're right! I make twice as much as your son so I need to talk to him about letting me take weeknights off." :-)[/quote]
