[quote=Anonymous]OP, I could have written this post myself. But I'll add in - tons of passive aggressive comments once she arrives, comments on food I feed my son, how she never gets to see my son, how she was a stay at home mom and "it was so much better," comments on our lifestyle, etc. I stopped the "breaks" because it was becoming bad for my mental health. I told my husband (who also works a ton, like it sounds like your husband does) that all dealings and plans with his parents go through him moving forward. I.E. If his mom was coming over, he'd have to be home to manage her. I wasn't going to do it myself. Interested to read others' feedback in this post. But I can totally relate to feeling like "Why is this stressing me out so much," and feeling like you're crazy since it's such a small thing, but I think for me it felt like I was doing a favor for her to come, yet she thought she was helping ME... and it really just felt like one more person/thing I couldn't rely on.[/quote]
