Here area few examples of really bad MIL's... some taken from news headlines
"A woman who was arrested for twisting off her daughter-in-law's nipple during a drunken brawl will avoid going to jail."
* A MIL who stayed for 1.5hours at the reception then went off to a hairdressers appointment
* A MIL who even though she was supposed to be caring for her pregnant DIL who was prescribed complete bed rest due to complications, demanded the DIL got out of bed to make dinner (she didnt)
* A MIL who cared soooo much the her xmas gift to her DIL was a teddy bear carousel that she made out of small stuffed teddy bears and a wooden paper towel holder

Im so glad my MIL is a good one!

My ex mother in law's first gift to me was the iron to match the ironing board my fella bought me... I should have known then not to marry him!! Every birthday and Christmas I received something along the lines of mop heads, spray bottles for diluting bleach, scourers etc etc. Originally I was very offended, but in the end I learnt to laugh about it. And I didn't deserve the implication either as my homes have never been dirty enough to receive such big hints!! lol. She also has "end of the world" complex. I've been through about 8 with her. It involves her buying us tinned food, water butts, endless batteries. She even owns gas masks. The worst bit was having to listen to her though - if it was an end of the world thing, she'd make plans for us either to all live together, or leave. I'm grateful I don't have to go through the 2012 one... If it was a health thing, she'd buy endless amounts of natural health suppliments or water oxygenators, or oats and dried fruit that had been dried the healthy way without chemicals. I'd have to spend hours listening to it and then she'd write it all out and go over it all with me again. She also used to manipulate the family to get her own way - for example, on Christmas day the children would all be starving hungry, but because she gets up so late (reading health books or end of the world books in bed) she'd go upstairs and refuse to come down until 3.00 knowing that we wouldn't start without her. Then she'd get upset when the children were crotchety and the daughters in law insisted on leaving without playing board games long in to the evening. Thank fully, my MIL2B is lovely. I love her almost as much as my own mum.

My MIL has only just decided to make a note of when my birthday is (been with Dan 4 1/2 years) so it will be interesting to see if she actually remembers this year! She's been okish with Christmas presents ... usually has no idea what to get so gets me bath stuff which I can't use as I have extremely sensitive skin!

CommentAuthorJill
lol on the whole me and mil2b get on really well. She loves her boy, and our boy, and wants the best for us all. We've had arguments here and there but we've resolved them and seeing as she always tells me she loves me when she's had a drink then I know she does as others arent quite as fortunate lol she loves me because I gave her Liam lol x

CommentAuthorclewsy
mine doesn't like me and isn't coming to the wedding. i have nothing against her at all no one is good enough for her son lol im like oh yes i am. the rest of the family love me im the most easy going person you could meet its such a shamex
CommentAuthorJacs
My MIL2B is wonderful, she loves me and I love her but the only problem is she lives in Jamaica and will not fly so she will miss the wedding. My mother on the other hand is wonderful and loving but as crazy as hell in a funny way! Wouldn't change her for the world - h2b has gotten use to her now.
CommentAuthorWeeMintyMonkie
Clewsy i have a mother like that. No one is good enough for me or my brother, the one person that she was all praises for was emotionally abusive towards me and treated me like dirt! a week before my brothers wedding she was screaming at my dad to stop the wedding! xxx
CommentAuthortimpson123
I love my MIL. She also thinks I'm great and i'm inclined not to argue with such an important member of H2B's family :-)
CommentAuthorRoxy
My MIL and I, get on the very best, but it wasn't always like that and we have been through a good few serious low points.
The dirty underwear made me actually laugh out loud, h2b thinks I'm mental!
CommentAuthorkaycrunch
My MIL2B doesn't like me, which she makes perfectly clear! Had to endure an hour with her today... moaning about everything - I just sat and smiled and nodded. She didnt like it at all! H2B actually put her in her place as well, she made her excuses and quickly left. It's a shame but its only this way because of how she behaves. Maybe one day we'll get along... think a pig just hit my window!
xx
PS. Nice to know that I'm not the only one with a nasty MIL2B - or as I like to call her WWW (Wicked Witch of the West).

Thankfully my mil2b lives abroad...she's nice tho!!!!
CommentAuthorjo Santa
Made me think how my mum is with my h2b - she's fine when we're together, but none of the family makes much effort for us to get together, so perhaps he will feel she's disinterested and not overly welcoming. I know she'd be upset to be thought of like that, but looking at it, it's exactly right. Wonder if our MIL's realise what we think of them??!!

CommentAuthorMrs Hailstone 2 be
I work for my MIL. I think i might be crazy, haha. We get on alright. Shes nice to me and does spoil me on birthdays and christmas. She has some odd ways but nothing too bad.
My mum absolutely adores H2B and thinks the sun shines out his bum. Kinda annoying sometimes as he always gets his way round her haha.
