My mother in law is so controlling! She constantly tries to exert her control when it comes to the household - we all live together. It is very difficult for me as I myself as quite controlling - but in this case I feel she is very possessive over her house/son/car etc! How can I manage my anger over her trying to control every situation?

Personally, I feel that there is no easy way about this. If moving out is not an option, I suggest you just keep your cool. Let her be the queen bee and just give in to her. Try to maintain your composure in front of her. What works for me is to keep a diary to vent my frustrations. Sharing with husband or close friends (who understand you) may also help. The important point is to have an outlet to express yourself (sharing on ParentTown works too!) so that everything is not bottled up. It is definitely not easy but I guess it is more important to maintain at least a cordial relationship with the in-laws. Hang in there! We will be here for you if you need a place to vent!
