Backstory mostly involves the appearance of the bridge that OP is posting from under.

If the OP feels ignored why is she continually contacting the step-MIL and harassing her? Does she think other people have the bandwidth to process stupid requests like this? Must be a stay at home mom with too much time on her hands.

I’m reminded of the thread started by a SIL who was asked to buy pampered chef products from her other SIL. If that is your MLM OP, you have a kindred spirit somewhere.

Yes, it came from under a bridge.

Why don’t you text him yourself?” To which I said DH doesn’t like me contacting his dad and she wrote back “That’s between you and DH. I’m not your messenger. Every time you message me, it’s a directive to buy something or show FIL videos of DH drunk or your kids. It’s honestly rubbing me the wrong way that you don’t even ask about me but contact me with instructions every single time. You have FIL’s cell phone so you can send him the videos directly.” I’m annoyed that she couldn’t just say ok but had to lecture me like this. Do I tell FIL?


She sounds like she’s jealous of the grand kids and won’t even do a small gesture of sharing the videos with her husband.

If these were long videos, then it may explain why OP chose to send via FB and if the FIL isn't on FB, this makes sense.

My sister does that with my wrt my elderly parents. I’m in town and taking care of them and she texts me stuff and wants me to show it to them. It irritates me. I’m not her secretary, my hands are full talking care of my parents, and I don’t need extra tasks to do. My feeling is she should come visit my parents and show them this stuff herself.

She’s not your or her husbands secretary, op.
