[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My MIL has never bought my kids anything. She is a witch. You sound spoiled. [/quote]

About the sports teams:  DH and I root for rival teams every week.  In a  BIG way!  When I go to his family's house, I have to hear about how great "their" team is.  My team has a better record, its not even a contest.  I try to believe that MIL and the rest of the ILs are not really trying to be a-hole-ish about it (even though they are, and they are poor losers to boot, its ridiculous).  I look at it for what it is. So what, your kids get older and learn who has the better record.  So?

As for the gifts, you can tell her to halve them, but really, what is the point?  You sound petty, OP.

What is the harm in letting your "step" Mil enjoy your children?  Are you afraid she will show you up, somehow?  Aren't GPs supposed to spoil their grandkids?

Believe me, I am the last person to defend any MIL (seriously) - but your MIL sounds like she has only good intent.  [/quote]
