      [quote=\"LKVM\"]Looks like seriously we all are some where or the other in the same boat... in my initial days MIL also tried to be violent and when my parents question she said i didnt behave and she did cause she felt she can do the her kids :faint: imagine not even saying sorry but on top of that defending what she did is right..


      Oh goodness!! She tried to hit you too!!

      :yikes: ...and now they want recognition for their efforts and respect from their DILs? (can't bring myself to type in the 'love' word..)[/quote]That's right. Respect is to be earned.

        Certain things just cannot be tolerated or forgiven. Once a certain line is crossed it’s hard to go back to being neutral. Unlike most of you I respect my mil as she is really nice, treating me very very well, especially when compared to the monster mil some of you are so unlucky to have. But I have a horrible sil to make up for it. Just like what some of you experienced with your mil she has caused me a few quarrels with DH. Anyway after her recent selfish request to buy my ils’ flat cheaply there’s no way I can bring myself to be anything more than civil to her.

            That is terrible. To use such violence esp. during your pregnancy?!!! I probably would have made a big hooha over it & I will not give my DH any peace over this - 60yrs issue man. Even now when MIL would just tap me hard on shoulder or sometimes grab and turn me over (cos' I was unaware she was talking to me), I already very buay-song. I WILL fight back if anyone try to use violence on me :nunchuk: but first of course, there will be a BIG cry....cos' I cannot take such treatment :rotflmao:

                  The physical marks are gone liao.. however the emotional marks which she left it on me will never go... :sad:[/quote]That is true. Most people don't realise that psychological abuse is far worse than physical pain. A lot of psychological pain does not heal.

                    Yes dear the problem is when this happened I was so shocked dunno how to react.. so I cried.. then later when DH came she oredi covered saying i was impossible to handle liao so she just pushed me.. when I showed the marks to DH he said oh mom must be really angry next time dont make her so much angry :stompfeet:

                    I can't believe she did that to you! You're such reasonable and loving person!!

                        :siao: MIL and :spank: :nunchuk: :heresmyfish: :torchme: your DH


                        Sorry but how can your DH still make excuses for your MIL.

                        If that were to happen to me, think my parents will go ballistic and demand some affirmative action from DH to ensure that such things will never happen again.

                        Then again, my Dad says, he is more worried that I might be the one he has to reign in most of the time not so much that I will be the one on the short end of the stick. :razz:
