I appreciate yo...Hmmm...I wonder who Truth is.....<br /><br />I appreciate your MIL story as I have had a few doozies. Actually the only reason the latest one & I haven't killed each other is because we have not seen each other nor spoken in 2 years (we live in the same town)! My mom is a great MIL...she never bad mouths the hubbys, she always sides with them & throws her daughters under the bus when needed. I have noticed a trend though, my mom had a crummy MIL, my Mema had a crummy MIL, my sis's MIL was less than desirable at the beginning but all the men involved had wonderful MILs which is the exact opposite of what is normally portrayed (the wifes mother being the shrew). I am a fair & balanced MIL to be...I call 'em like I see 'em & my kid ain't perfect!victorianbybirthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15434615718581016837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3999101814890466507.post-77553500511611628992009-09-14T20:10:36.949-05:002009-09-14T20:10:36.949-05:00Truth--what a nice post.

I know they would not always agree with me, but I really do try to be the kind of M-I-L I would have liked, if my M-I-L had not been such a horrid, horrid, shrewish, passive-aggressive, mean woman. If she had been a bit nicer, I probably could have hung in a bit longer with her boy, but the opportunity to shuck all of them was too good to pass up.<br /><br />I used to own-I loaned it to someone and I can't remember who-a book called M.I.L.D.E.W. Mothers-In-Law Do Everything Wrong. Paperback, cheap. Find one and use it as ammo when the S-I-L complains about you!Edith Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06623443279337364086noreply@blogger.com
