I really hate my mother in law. She gets jealous easily. She made such a big fuss and cried when my hubby gave me a gift for wedding anniversary. My hubby is at his wits end. We bring my in laws out regularly and buy things for her occasionally too. How do I tell her to grow up?

I think its the Husband who needs to sort this one on his own. Mothers tend to feel jealous after marriage as its their kid who has grown and found another lady whom he cares for. In my case I was very concerned when my wife told me that my mother may be jealous. So I apart from gifting and taking her out, I started spending time with her and just listened to her everyday. Then I found its because she was feeling a bit lonely and these thoughts were a direct result of that. My advice, ask your hubby to spend time with her more often.
