In-law problems?

How abt mil who practise favoritism? Unfortunately, you're married to a less favored son of hers..so you're the \"less privileged dil\" eg when CNY, mil will specially reserve good food for the \"favorite\" son's potential girl friend (now dil), etc.
Actually I would be very happy if she practises favouritism...this way, she doesn't come near to me...then hubby won't be at her beck and call to do this and that. If she has a favourite DIL, lagi better...go and bug her instead.
As for leftover food, it's ok if it's just from previous night and not heated up over and over again. That is definitely NO NO. -
Left over food if left over for more than a day is unhygenic. I also cannot imagine
how the spoons that has gone into the food. They do not use a common spoon
but everyone who wants to eat will dip their spoons into the food. It makes me
shudder, I admit I am a bit of a clean freak but still I do not like my MIL shoving
her left over food to me on weekends. -

Don't know why, maybe I have a more 'can tahan' face?
I wish that I can be bolder and just :siam: when she comes to me
with her complaining look. -
Most mil who favour one son will reserve all the good food for him, maybe the bank account is also in his name. But when it comes to running errants, they’ll get other children to do it, cos they don’t want to trouble the favourite one. Have heard of many such cases.

So the favourite son gets to enjoy good food and maybe the bank account as well...but not-favourite son gets to do the sh!@ work. Oh yes, of course I heard before. I'm not rich but I don't hanker for her bank account. Just don't bug me...go bug your favourite son and make sure he does everything (enjoy good food as well as running errands). -
Good thing for me is my MIL is not rich so she cannot hold whatever money she has in
her bank account over our heads! -

Me. And I had to eat these leftovers even when I was preggie and living with her... :sick:

*glup* I don't know how many people have MIL having overnight food heat up and eat the next day?

So true! My MIL always asks DH (her less favored son) to fetch her to airport whenever she goes for holidays, not her favorite son. And she even gets her maid to wash and iron my BIL's work clothes even though they also have a maid.
