Can I vent about my MIL? I got a thank you note in the mail from her today--addressed to her grandchildren, thanking them for her mother's day present. I don't think my two and five year olds know how to purchase a Talbot's gift card. Would it kill her to say thank you to me, the person who actually bought it? Ugh. [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

Ignore all the naysayers - I'm with you and know EXACTLY about the kind of passive-aggressive nonsense you are dealing with. So sorry and, no she'll never be able to just thank you. [ Reply | More ]

OP: There is. She excludes me from most communications--voice mails, cards, etc... I just always get the impression from her that if I was to drop off the face of the earth tomorrow (leaving just her dear son and grandchildren), well, that would not be a bad thing. Even better would be if her son could procreate entirely by himself, so that it could be just her and her family. Maybe I do have issues, but it has been seventeen long years of this treatment.

It was from all of us, but she knows I bought it. I sent it to her--the kids did not even know I sent her anything (and why would they care?) [ Reply | More ]
