I don't know about the 'stand by me' part...all I know is I won't have high BP if I don't need to see THEM...so relieved and happy man :imcool:

Seeing them makes me so stressed...so I understand Bud's 10 year torture.

i everyday see mil, i stressed!
always give \"great ideas\" out of the blue.

Welcome to the club!

Not to mention the backstabbing. To stay sane, it's better to see her less.

the MIL-DIlL relationship can be so complex … sometimes I wonder why.

Yes, we will be MILs one day.
It's impt not to get involved in the lifestyles of the kids and their spouses...don't get salt and vinegar like what Oppsgal/CWC mentioned.
We are suffering because those old ones interfere...so learn what NOT to do in future.

Yes. The golden rule is not to interfere at all in the lives of the young generation. Try to have own activities, learn taichi or line-dance, or learn some stuff from cc. Don't stay in the house too often. See too much of each other and it will lead to conflicts.
