      Miserable time today...a mother who is mean to her son and said her son will have retribution. The reason? For asking his mother to rent out a master bedroom to supplement their high expenses to drink and smoke.

      My hubby was so hurt.
      I have enough...after witnessing with my own eyes.
      :hugs: .. ..
      My day was really stressed and dramatic..
      Gave out at least 50 angpows, mainly strangers somemore..
      Stressed trying to make sure 'familiar' faces not missed out..
      Totally gave up towards the evening... :faint:

        Was informed by hub that his mother doesn't have any 'lai see'. Told him it is not the amount that matters...even if just $2...but if she doesn't have any 'lai see', then the suay one is her. At the table while eating KFC, hub asked her to consider renting out master bedroom to supplement...gently said that he and his siblings can't increase. She blasted him...saying she will never rent. Will only sell :mad: Then added, 'don't forget, you also have children...just watch it and see if your children do this to you.'

          I think we need to be more positive about CNY! Too many complaints about MILs at a time when we are supposed to be reaffirming our family ties. The MIL stories can go on forever everyday but CNY comes once a year!


          So let us continue to pray for the good health and prosperity for everyone especially our fellow Singaporeans HUAT AH!!! :celebrate:

            My hubby vented his anger on us after his mother blasted him.
            I wish I can be positive too.

              never mind, let Janet vent out her frustration.
              not every family has understanding MIL. If yours happen to have one, then indeed you're blessed. Protect your blessings. Unfortunately, not everyone in this world is blessed.
              We can't choose our relatives. We can't choose our own MIL, FIL, SIL, BIL, can we ?

                      Things may change de. My mil was not very nice to me too until recently. But these days, she is much nicer.


                      We, as younger generation, still need to do what we shd do. Last time when people tell me this, I thought - don’t bull shit la, where got such thing? They won’t change de lah.but now, I see it for myself.

                        Don't worry about the ranting... It's good to let off steam... Better to let it off here than amongst family members which could lead to further disharmony.

                        DH also lost his temper over something my mother said... and blasted at us. Son in law and mil issues. :slapshead: Spoilt CNY for me .... But will look on the bright side there's 15 days to CNY.
