Totally disagree.. she always has her way out. It's either her way or no way. My hubby is a mummy's boy. So she always tell tales abt me to him to make me look like a bad person. 2 longgg years I was living with her. Finally out and got my own place. But even now she wants to buy a house nearby my place to irritate me..

Quite ok but when come to raise my daughter we seem have generation gaps and she keeps want me follow her. I quite desperate when she kept asking me open my room door during confinement. I felt uncomfortable as I need breastfeeding and helper and fil is around too.Very stressed during that period.

Disagree. Monster in law who stepped over boundaries. Never learn to respect but demand respect. Whatever her gal does is right. Whatever we do is nv right. I am taken as dead when i am there. Never like going but we stayed too close for comfort. No ways to hide or avoid.

Agree. It as if only their gal is human we aint human... but... well... no choice... hubby and his parent is one package de... and we choose this package...

Disagree. She hasnt been saying the most pleasant things to me on important occasions, and say nonsense to my daughter - things that would impact her psychological ly. Dont wamt her near my child but she vomtes visit every week

I was very close to my late MIL. yeah, she nags and suddenly calls me at any point of the day to ask for cendol. But I am blessed to have the time of 3 years with her before her demise. Now I have issues with my own dad. Lol!

She is like my second mum ❤️. She takes really good care of me. Without her help in taking care of my 2 boys, I wouldn't have a piece of mind when I need to travel for my work. Counting my blessings

At least you make the decision. My husband followed my mil because he said she got experienced raising baby. Omg. Even baby umbilical cord I cannot keep and must discuss and get approval first .

The 2 years that i lived with my MIL, she was ok generally but the generation gap was evident when it came to raising my 1st born then...she passed away due to ovarian cancer...

Yes indeed. Without her I and hubby cant even hold a job. And the biggest admiration is that she is already 85! Still caring my kids. Blame on us married late...

Yes and no. My MIL could have been a good care-giver if my FIL was gone. She tends to give in to his wrongdoings, including those putting me and my baby at risk.
