re: How do you feel about your mother-in-law?

I like my MIL, but she talks a LOT and can be overbearing at times. But, she is a sweetie. AND, she used to buy me and DH alchohol before we were of age! So thats points in my book!!!  

She is a good lady, even tho I hate how he likes his two other sons more than my husband because they have kids.that's the only thing that bugs me. And how she always brings up her husband (my husband's step dad,s) kids. They are useless bums who bring shame to this family. Potheads and drunk with a massive record. But we keep our distance and we are good.

Quoting ♡♡:" My MIL isn't horrible, but i don't miss her if we don't talk or see each other for months at a time."

THIS. Lol

Well, I don't dislike my MIL.
I do things very differently then her and we both have very different veiws about things..and I have gotten annoyed now and then about certain things, but I don't dislike her. She's a nice person and has helped my family when needed and she def loves her grandson  

Im not married but SO's parents are no longer alive so i dont know my future MIL or FIL. However I know my future BIL and SIL. I cant really say bad about them but i cant say much good either.

Quoting courtneyrenee32:" I read a lot of horror stories on BG about horrible mother-in-laws. I always wonder if there is anyone ... [snip!] ... own grandchild even though he has a different father. I would love to hear how you feel about your mother-in-law. (good or bad)"

My mother in law is wonderful she does every thing for me we talk everyday and like yours my oldest son isnt my husbands and his WHOLE family treats him like he is their own....but we do bicker sometimes but hell families fight all the time BUT i would never trade for a new one, she would do ANYTHING for us! shes great

I absolutely love her.

I usually like her lol
She does a lot for all of us, but she gets in these weird moods & the men in her life (DH,BIL & FIL) all tip toe around it & I don't tolerate that crap well. We just had a baby & she's been pretty overbearing at times & there might be a time when I actually snap since it seems DH is just going to ignore it   lol

I adore my MIL. She loves and treats me like the daughter she never had. She's been better to me in the 9 years I've been with my DH than my parents were when I was growing up.

I work with mine every day of the week...We are both managers... So at work we are co-workers and out side we are family... It works really well for us... I have even gone on vacation with them with out my husband because he had to work LOL... So I just consider her another mother   I am lucky that way  

I'm not married but, I can't stand my SO's mother. She's just a bitch to be a bitch. SO seems to think thatcif she's not happy than no one can be happy. She and I don't talk... wonder how she'll be aftervher granddaughter is born...

Love SO's dad though. Great guy.

Love her although she drives me crazy

I WISH I could have a nice relationship with my MIL, she always seems so awkward and feels like shes imposing. She always says things like, "Well if it were me I would do it like this."
She treats my DH like hes a boy and not a man and hes just now starting to be annoyed by it since weve had a baby and hes became a father.
I wish my MIL was cooler, shes too serious and all about business all the time.

I'm not married but my boyfriend / baby's daddy mom is a bitch ... every time she gets the chance she puts her nose in our business and puts her 2 cents in ..... she gives our number to girls he used to know with out asking us .... she insults me left and right but in a polite tone...she is annoying ...and doesn't listen to any of my rules when it comes to my son and sneaks my boyfriend cigarettes behind my back and encourages his childish behavior .... do not like that lady .... like my mom says .....long live the mother in law but let her live far far away

I'm not married and not really with BD any more, but his mom drives me insane.

I don't want to force religion on my children and she knows this, but she is always bible thumping and tries to convince me to let her take my older daughter to church every Sunday. She steps on our toes. Ever since I quit biting my tongue and stood up to her, she has put absolutely ZERO effort in to seeing my kids. She has seen my almost-4-month-old a total of 3 times since she was born, and has seen my 15 month old probably 10 times and she lives 5 minutes from our house. She was abusive when BD was growing up and is the such a fake. UGH this woman makes me want to scream. She has no respect for me or BD as parents.
