In-law problems?

LKVM:
I KNOW!Hey duriz... sometimes I dont understand why the guys are like that :stupid:
Why cant they think even we as the mom's have some rights and some dreams about our own kids :?
Just everything can let others decide :stupid:
He's a guy, he has his limitations, so I can empathise.
But she is a woman.
She has her children, her hopes and her dreams. But why trample on mine?
I'd just gone into the ladies to let out a soft scream then wash my face.
I still need to go home to them.
And hug my DD very very tight. -
hi duriz

Dear LKVM and hapydino,
Thank you both.
It's just that this morning DD cut her upper lip when she fell.
Two weeks ago she fell from the bed and had a baluku.
All under MIL's care (?).
She'd apologise profusely to me and I'd let both incidents go.
Children learning how to walk will have many accidents, I give.
Until that fated phone call from DH.
$@#$%@%@^@&*
I'm sad to feel so angry.
When I think of Mummy buds
Haiz, motherhood really isn't for sissies. -

And yet you're a hapydino.
Kudos to you :celebrate: -

Don't mean to rub salt in, but how come your daughter's birthday is a normal dinner with no guests ? Are your parents attending ?DH just called to say his mom doesn't want a big celebration but only a dinner at home among ourselves, no guests, just like dinner everyday. He also added that they are at the cake shop, can they go ahead and order the cake.
The only I said to him was:\"If you are the mother of the child, would you like to see how the cake looks like before ordering it?\" -

No problem.
And no.
Just the people living under the same roof.
PILs, BIL (if he's around) and the three of us.
MIL prefers to keep it simple.
I beg to differ.
I'm not thinking of a big birthday bash with 500 guests.
But I'm not agreeable to her idea either. -
Duriz,
Your MIL funny ah…birthday dinner for just the people under the same roof. It’s not like you’re having a dinner with 5 tables.
Mine here is the bochap type…she wants others to remember her birthday and not the other way. When SIL invited her for daughter’s birthday party, she arrived late and wants transport to/fro. She will also have that damn buay shiok look. -

If she gets it done her way, it will be more difficult to 'handle' in future..janet_lee88:

Drop her strong hints can? -
Hi Duriz,
I think you have every right to decide, since you are mummy.
This reminds me of the time when my son was born. Told me she didn’t like the name SIL gave to her daughter. I asked her if she was the one who named her 4 kids…and she said YES. So I asked her, ‘why can’t the mother name her own kid ?’
