                Only if...u'd better pray that ur SIL will ask ur MIL migrate there πŸ™ But I think that is impossible...but no harm praying πŸ™ . For me, I think impossible for my MIL to stay @ her Dh's hse longer than a month. Coz, she'll call to say she miss my Ds and want to come home already. Give me the goose pimples man, when she said that πŸ˜› . When she come bk here, she said her son-in-law is very capable lah..blah.....blah...blah :x :x :x not like her own ds lah...Sometimes I wonder who is her ds :? my dh or MIL's ds's dh. :stupid: :?

                  Hi AuntieKiasi,

                  Migrate there ? Impossible.
                  Hey, how come our 2 old ones so similar ??? She always boast her son-in-law very capable bcos he is a dentist. What is so big deal about him…cheapskate and not a kind-hearted person (from what hubby said).
                  She better go to US and do her part as a grandmother, since she has never done it before.

                    My MIL would say her ds's dh is very fillial (always bring her out here & there for makan). But when my dh brings her out, she complain the food not up to her standard lah....blah blah blah. I don't know what *standard* she wants. If we bring her to hawker centre, she will complain that food not nice blah blah blah. If we bring her to top grade restaurants, she will complain that food is mass prepared blah blah blah :stupid: :x :stupid: .

                    Really don't know what she wants :? :?

                      Wah !!! :!:
                      So hard to please. High end restaurants not cheap, have to pay +++.
                      If spoil market by bringing her to eat restaurants, taste buds won't accept hawker food liao. Of course she wants to eat there lah, no need to cook and no need to pay. Will split bill but have to put up with all the fake appearances and drama.

                        Sorry to interrupt you guys. Just wanted to share with you that my MIL, who's a widow and lives alone in the US, is in town at the moment, bringing with her 5 of her friends from Taiwan. My hubby paid for everything for them for the trip, air-tix, accomodations for 8 nites, tix to Universal Studio, Night Safari Halloween party, S'pore flyer, duck tour, chilli crab meals etc, etc. As a token of appreciation, her friends gave our kids 2 hong baos and some stuffed animals as gifts.


                        Tonite, after we came back from dinner, MIL kept asking us what's inside the hong bao. When she found out there were SGD220 cash inside each hong bao, she asked us to return to them :x . She doesn't spend a penny for the whole trip (DH paid for her tix from US-Taiwan-China-Singapore-Taiwan-US) and yet expects my DH to pay for everything for her AND her friends and even return their gifts for our kids! We don't really care about that little bit of $$ but I think it's basic courtesy to at least accept their gifts.

                        This also reminds me of the other time during our wedding years ago. We invited some of PILs' friends over from the US. Naturally DH paid for everything. And when they gave us a check as wedding gift, she asked us not to clear it, even though she didn't help fund a penny on our wedding, not to mention the only wedding gift she gave me, a golden necklace, was given to her by my DH :stupid:

                        I don't mind DH paying for them as these are in fact very nice people and they've helped PILs when they were poor. I just don't like the way she thinks it's her fundamental right to act generous with her son's $$ while she just sits there doing nothing :x

                        This is only the first day and already causing DH to yell at me as I was showing black face due to this incident. The problem is I'm the worst actor in the world. It's not possible to hide my feelings 😒 .

                        Please God give me the strength to go thru the next 8 days!!
