My mil thinks she can only handle her son and whole house. She only knows his likes and dislikes. And she does all the work in home. She washes his son clothes, does kitchen work, everything. My husband says m not doing anything behaving as a guest. I too feel like that. But the fact is she is not giving chance for me. Even if I want to take anything, she only knows where it is. But my husband says my mom is getting old, so u take care all of us. How do I handle this sitn. How 'll i make him understand that she is not giving chance? My husband keeps on saying that u didn't even making a cup of tea for me. Sometimes I feel happy that I don want to do any work. But sometimes I feel m staying in this house as guest. Really I don't feel like my home.

aha...what a good and bad situation ;) i definitely feel you should talk about this with your MIL in front of your hubby...tell her that he feels she is old and should start getting some rest. assert yourself smartly, tell her that she can take over most of the kitchen duties, but there are some that you want to share. if she says yes, or even if she refuses, your hubby will know it all
