I feel like im in a compressed cooker, anytime going to explode. My no1 is 19mo while no2 is 2mo old, we are staying with my parents. My bro is already 25yo(doing part time job) yet behaves like secondary sch kid, mimic and make fun of all of my actions and what i said. Dad and mum everyday nag about this nag about that, especially my mum, she can scold and nag very well. Both my parents like to criticise and say sarcastic things to us expect those that they dote on. What i teach my kid they also want to interfere, have something to say and criticise. I bought multivitamin for no1, he doesnt want to drink, my mum threw it away telling me that since no1 doesn't like why am i forcing him, so threw it away. Arghhhhhh!!! Both children sleep in aircon room, im afraid they might have dry skin, bought lotion for them, my mum fought over this with me, refused to let them apply and even i apply on them, she got angry and quarrel with me. Hubby knows everything but only thing he tells me is "forget it lo, they(my family members) are like tt wad to do" if not hubby will jus ignore my grumbles and not listen to me/walk away. I am really very irritated and might flare up in anytime soon. How can i calm myself down!!!

First of all, you need to calm down. Yes sometimes own parents are the ones giving us more problems then our inlaws. You have bite it thru because you are staying with them. Will you be moving to your own place anytime soon? As for the lotion, ignore your mum, don't care if she is angry about you applying it, apply while she isnt around you. You are the mother and you meant well. As for your brother. well. probably he isn't mature yet. Just ignore.

😭 not moving into our place anytime soon. In laws might be tough to handle but own parents are the ones that are really giving us the real prob. Yes i did apply, she scolded and said sarcastic stuff like as though it is some big issues. I agree, bro is just immature, but mum sides on him thinking that there isint anything wrong, even thought that why am i jealous of bro and picked on him.
