I have to keep reminding myself that this holiday weekend is almost over. If I don't, I won't survive. So far MIL has commented on the fact that I do to much laundry, I clean up the kitchen to much, and a host of other things. Most annoying is how she tells ME that I am the cause of all DS's problems. He is a spoiled brat that runs the house and is a mama's boy. I'm really sick of it. YES, we know DS has some rather large issues. We are going to see a child psychologist about his heightened fear of people and situations and his mental breakdowns in public. believe me, we are at our wits end trying to help him and can't figure out why this happens everywhere except preschool). But today MIL yelled at him to shut up and stop acting like a baby (she cursed at him to, but I'm not writing what she said because it makes me sick. If I could have kicked her out tonight I would have). I had to grab her arm b/c she was about to smack him. NOT OK. She has no right to speak to my son that way AT ALL. She has made it clear that she doesn't really like him. SO DON'T COME TO VISIT, DON'T INVITE US AND PLEASE DO NOT GIVE EITHER OF MY CHILDREN ANYTHING SO THAT WE FEEL WE OWE YOU BACK.
I hate that DH sides with her when she is here and then changes his tune when she is gone. I don't get why sons feel they have to do that. Why does he make excuses for her all the time. DH doesn't realize that if it continues the only way he will see his children is via court ordered visitation b/c I will not live this way and I won't put my children through a life like this.
I also need to tell MIL to stop walking into my room in the morning while I am naked and start talking to me or DH. HELLO, WE ARE NAKED AND GETTING DRESSED. THIS IS NOT YOUR HOUSE MIL. PLEASE LEAVE MY ROOM. DH refuses to say anything to her b/c this is how it was in his house growing up. To bad DH. This is OUR house-not your childhood home.
