In-law problems?

[vinegar]

ngl2010:

Have you tried to discuss with your DH about it? Just discuss it matter-of-factly. No need to be emotional. Just like when we are in the office meeting.

i did...but he doesn't see my views.

First,he doesn't see the need of coupletime. Secondly,he doesn't know how to be assertive n handle his mum. :imdrowning: Thirdly,my MIL is very good in manipulating him.She likes to say words which make him guilty, :?: for e.g. how long i can still talk to u,i am so old liao,can go anytime,kinda word...

Seriously,i find it frustrating to handle my DH.


If i seek help from him,he’ll very frustrated. If i seek help from my frds,he’ll be jealous.

if i handle everything for him,he become so free n starts to kay poh wf his mum,rather than spending time wf the kids.

this point...i totally agree.
if hubby is very free, that free time may not be spent with the kids/wife but more time to kaypoh with his attention-seeking mum.

I asked cos I casually (scoff) told my girls the same thing. They are girls but also roll eyes. They know its a trap. A test. :evil: Of course, out front we declare no correct answers.. inside.. all mothers hope to hear model answers. :rotflmao:


:idea: Perhaps my girls roll their eyes because that topic was tested too many times. :rotflmao:

:rotflmao:

Mm, good idea to set traps now - training what are the model answers before they kena hantam by girlfriend(s)/boyfriend(s), wife/husband and mother-in-law or monster-in-law :rotflmao:

I'm also expecting model answers.

I told them if I like my grandchildren so much, I will 打包带走.
The expected model answer from them should be 'mummy you're living with me, so no need to 打包 my baby home' :rotflmao:

my MIL likes to call my DH just to tell him what she did last wkend,where she went,which doctor she visited,what she did...etc...

It's alright, that's normal conversation topics. I think my MIL called dh & talked similar content too. 不然要聊什么？

You should introduce her to http://www.blogger.com and help her set up her own blog
