In-law problems?

Mrs Ang:
Did you'll celebrate Mothers' Day with your mil? I didn't

Nope. DH didn't say anything.. ...
If my MIL plans anything at all that includes us there will 2 main reasons.
Showy to friends and relatives how 'close' she is with us/ photo session or she wants DH to foot the bill. :rant: -
My ILs would be hitting the 70+ soon (another 3 years). Hubby is the only son and ILs has two other married daughters. One SIL married a only child, the other SIL married the only son. Both SILs not staying with their ILs.
We used to stay tge till my second child was 3plus. Had one major quarrel with MIL. The last draw was during my second childβs K2 graduation concert. Sth happened and I lost any bit of respect left for MIL.
Now that both ILs are getting old, is it my duty to move the whole family back? Hubby has not mentioned anything. Dun know if he is waiting for me to suggest willingly or he really has not thought abt it.
Moving back means many adjustments for all. -

winth:
got the same impression too (but i might be too sensitive). mil sometimes went : \"oh, she is going as well??????\" and then a long pause and who's gonna look after kids?\".
MIL: So, like dat, who will take care of the kids?
(I was totally confused... she got me there and I couldn't answer...)
I interpreted from the conversation as me and my kids are excluded.
i just laughed, tag along and make myself happy.

Hello all!
Just saw the latest topic on Mother's Day hence I just share here:
For my MIL my hubby cooked a REALLY WONDERFUL Mother's Day lunch for her! He cooked EVERYTHING including baking a cake!
He roasted a lamb as main course, did giant asparagus and baked portabello mushrooms. Oh...he also made tomato soup as starter, not can soup but from fresh tomatoes!
I did not help at all because I am hopeless in cooking.
What did my MIL says? Needless to say she was very touched but I expected it and she said to me \" You should have done this ma...!\".
Yes, MIL, I will try next time...perhaps on Father's Day.....
:oops:
:celebrate: -

Wow, your DH is really sincere & filial. If I did that, my mum will think that either I'm dying of cancer or more likely trying to borrow money from her

Your kids would have taken a leaf from this, and next time they will also cook for you guys. Isn't this wonderful.
