      We already kena bitten until shy far, far away liao! You should have seen how my MIL have backstabbed all of us over the years.


      We know what they are up to and they know we are super pissed. They are worried that their position in the family will shake as others know of the situation and don't respect them. Recently even want to go on a long vacation with us. Tell us to go plan and anywhere also can! All expenses fully paid! Lucky draw also don't have so lucky! :yikes:
      Actually all this is for show to prove that they are very fair to us.

      Think hang a carrot everyone will bite.

      DH says they always think piling $$$ on people and acting can solve all the problems.
      whoa but what does she want from you or yr family? so scary.

      what happened in the past though? how come they are sneakily treating u like that... with the lower AP and non-bday celebration etc. I understand DIL will never be the same as one's own flesh and blood except in rare cases but to make such a show and then in reality all bs.

      maybe \"face\" to outsiders v impt to them...

        Yes, you are very right. "Face" is very important to them. They always boasting and showing to others about how "perfect" their family is. Truth is perfect from far, far from perfect.

        Unfortunately, MIL likes to play politics and FIL’s words are also not trustworthy. MIL will take down anyone whom she finds a threat (eg. more popular than her etc.) She must be best everything mah. I don’t respect her because she takes credits for things she didn’t put effort in and make others look super bad. Sadly, my ILs are not kind, rightous and generous person although they go out and pretend to be one.

        We are not the only ones kena sabo by her. Her own SIL and BIL also kena.

          employ a maid if the in-laws staying together. Everything they want ask the maid, everything you want also ask the maid. Somehow money is another issue. Who pay for the maid salary? ask the siblings to share. On top of that monthly allowance also must ask the siblings to give. This is responsibility.


          But first is your the other half, the eldest child? if he/she is the youngest child, the demand above is usually very difficult to handle.

              My FIL is terribly hen-pecked. He loves

              stout and drinks it like water. As for his other half, she smokes like a chimney. Both of them buy economy rice for lunch and dinner, keeping the money to smoke and drink.

              Told my hubby to advise his mother to cook simple meals…they are terribly haggard and weak. But he said he has given up saying it. Since this favorite son’s words also fallen on deaf ears, have to give up.

                        during courtship really must assess the other half’s parents and family background. Love isn’t suppose to be blind. Must be obeservant when the first time boyfriend brings to see his family.
