[quote=Anonymous]Those who don't get along have a burdensome experience they need to discuss and process so you're more likely to hear from people who have trouble with their ILs than those who don't. I think it's pretty common but not necessarily more common than having trouble with your own family. How many of us can say we've got no beef with our parents or siblings? To your more specific question, I think you owe it your husband to be kind and welcoming to your MIL but that doesn't mean having no boundaries with the woman. If she says something insulting, you can and should respond honestly - let her know you're surprised she feels the need to say that and you're disappointed. You don't have to walk on eggshells around her just because she's an IL. If your mom said something rude to you, what would you say?[/quote]
