[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are certainly times I know I'm battling my MIL through some serious passive aggressive shit.  She is a HUGE score keeper and pretty much hates that my family even exists.  My DH is under strict instructions to not really share info with her about how much my mother comes over, since that really has nothing to do with my MIL.  But then sometimes I go out of my way to mention my family.  Part of it is that it honestly hurts my feelings she's not accepting of my family and part of it is that I'd like to rub it in how awesome my family is.  This must be done delicately, but I still do it.

If I was a perfect DIL, I'd just act like my family didn't exist around my MIL since I know I could do that, it would keep her happy, and it doesn't effect how much I see my own family.  But I just can't do that, so I find ways to bring them up sometimes as a way to remind her I have parents and siblings too.  [/quote]

I TOTALLY do this, too. My MIL would love me to be an orphan. It is SO odd.[/quote]
