I don't have a MIL, yet.

But, I can understand your frustrations and anger. MY paternal grandmother used to all those mean things to my mom too. My mom hid it from me until recently. Things my gm did would just shock you.

When my mom was pregnent with me, gm made her get on her knees and scrubbed the kitchen floor!! She even told her to use soap and scrub it hard. Few days later, I was born. My mom should have been in bed, resting!!

That wasn't the worst thing.

My dad is a diebetic and needs daily injections to help process any "sugar" he consumes. Well, my gm blamed that on my mother even though she was the one that caused it (long story).

Til this day, I can't believe my gm is such horrible person! My mom tells me to be VERY careful when choosing a mate. You're not only spending your life with that personal, you're going to be spending with their family as well.

So true.
