[quote=Anonymous]No here and I don't think your MIL is jealous. I think she could be right about your degree but perhaps could have given you more helpful feedback on how to achieve your career goals. And wrt your daughter and school, perhaps she sees no reason why she could not have gone Ivy considering the position in which she started in life (obviously she is somewhat privileged). In my home town, the prep school for boys had a relationship with a top tier school others only dream of getting into with a 4.0 but acted as their safety net for middle of the road students with decent grades and extracurricular participation. Is that really an accomplishment? It sounds more like a class difference between you and your MIL that she has never accepted. Still not nice, but I wouldn't think of it as jealousy. I would let go of needing her validation and any hope for a relationship. Be a better MIL to your future DIL and be kind if your son (or daughter) brings home someone who started out in a different class. [/quote]
