I have always had a rock relationship with my mother in law, we have had some full blown arguments! She told me to have an abortion and has come into my home unannounced and told me how I should behave and a variation of other things. Over time we have started getting along mire but I just can't do it! No matter how much I try! She is a biggot, she is racist, she is ignorant beyond belief and I just can't stand her!! I have no idea how in gods name the love of my life is her flesh and blood!
I know I am not alone in having monster in law problems, I will not ban my children from seeing her- as it is we don't see her often as it is. My main question is how the hell am I ment to tolerate someone I fundamentaly disagree with in EVERY accpect of life for the rest of my life??
I wish to get on with her and I try so hard to take her for who she is.. But it happens to be who she is, is an ass hole!
HELP ME!!

Sorry u realise your post showed up annonymous and again with your name ? just incase you had not realised !!
I couldnt stand my mother in law. She also told me to get an abortion. One night I just snapped and started screaming at my husband saying how much I hated her. She died the next day. Moral of the story.. bite your tounge when talking to your husband about her.
My husband's mum died when he was young but his dad's girlfriend.is a.dragon... and they've all become so accustomed to her behaviour that they don't bat an eyelid! Well, not me! I make no effort, I only speak to her to answer questions she asks.or reply to anything she says to me. A minimal amount of effort goes.into that relationship and that's the way I like it! She's a manipulative cow and I don't want her in my pocket like my sister in law seems to... but my sister in law is the type that can't cope with people not liking her so I guess she just feels the need to suck up to keep her on side. PFFFT, make the smallest amount of effort you ha e.to in order to keep thing civil for your husband's sake and.make sure she doesn't.push her attitudes
Views or behaviours on to your kids. My husband knows that our son will NEVER think of this woman as his.Nan and that her idiocy will not be.tolerated around him.
