[quote=Anonymous]I would go for a 'date night' with your DH and have a honest chat with him about your mother and how the two of you should handle it.  You both know your culture and what is expected.

Your mother is poisoning your mind against your DH to make herself more needed, so you will take her advice and not his or his families.  She is aware her manipulation works due to being your mother and that you scared of her. She probably does believe she is right although you are more aware she is insecure and scared.

Once she is gone you will probably find your marriage improves straight away.  I would not tell her to stop, I would flood her with positive praise but I would not talk about your in-laws, just say it is disrespectful for you to talk about them in that way.  As another poster said get your DH to praise her and compliment her, compliment her food etc.  Perhaps you could bond together about how you have to praise her to keep her happy, support each other.

If your DH agrees she is too much and needs to go, I would have her leave early.
