Hi Eva I don't know what you would call our (MIL) gap. We have the exact opposite opinion about everything. She is mean and disrespectful, and I get really happy dreaming of the day she is no longer on this earth.

My MIL gave me a white lace teddy at my bridal shower in front of my grandmother, mother, aunts, cousins, all the ladies on his sdie of the family and then of course my friends... awkward. She then proceeded to tell me that you know you've had a g...

"Oh well,I can say she has done many things to me without her son calling her on any of it" Your MIL is hopeless, no one is "good enough for her baby boy". As long as your husband, behaves as YOUR MAN, not as "her baby boy", you will be OK. good l...

Wow! MIL..arent they facinating creatures? When my daughter was born my husband let her borrow some saving bonds we got for our daughter. He never even mentioned it to me. She never paid them back either.I was never good enough for her baby boy. O...

I met my husband when i was 28 years old. I moved into his apartment and didn't know his mother lived in the same complex for about 5 months. She could actually see our apartment from her balcony! I found out when she broke into our apartment to get some clothes my husband had throw away when I moved in.

If you want more, let me know. It's a story to tell!

THIS MOTHER-IN-LAW IS A REAL MENSCH!

This past weekend I attended a birthday party at my neighbor's house. My neighbor (Susan) introduced me to her mother-in-law, and made a comment "My mother-in-law is a real mensch". Strictly speaking, a "mensch" is a Yiddish word that means "a person of integrity and honor". I shook hands with a woman (Noureen) in her 70s wearing a traditional Bangladeshi outfit, makeup, bracelets, rings, etc. Considering my interest in multicultural MIL/DIL relationships, I haven't missed the opportunity to lea… Continue

A MOTHER-IN-LAW... WHAT ABOUT YOURS?

I am writing a book about mothers-in-law. My objective is to write a "how to" book for mothers-in-law, the one that they would actually read. Since the inception of my project, I have received many emails from MILs and DILs about their problems. No two are alike. People also emailed about their perfect relationships with their MILs and DILs.

There are two groups in Momlogic community MIL ROUND TABLE and DIL ROUND TABLE. Please join us if you would like to comment or share a story. I would appre… Continue
