The following stories show how disrespectful some in-laws can be to their daughters-in-law.
Some of them refuse to follow instructions and rules, while others try to enforce their own beliefs on their children’s families. Read on to hear all about their bad behaviors. MIL Goes Silent on Her Daughter-in-Law A Reddit user contacted the platform’s users on the “AITA” sub, hoping to get their guidance. Sharing some background, the woman revealed that she had problems with her mother-in-law (MIL) long before she welcomed her first child in August 2021.Things got worse with the MIL after the original poster (OP) welcomed her child. When OP was discharged from the hospital after giving birth, she went to stay with her parents, something she described as a “big mistake in general.” Her MIL insisted on staying with her in-laws because she felt it was unfair that they should get to be with the baby all the time while she couldn’t. OP noted how her MIL had boundary issues before the baby was born but became even worse after. The older woman refused to adhere to any rules put in place, constantly kissed the four-month-old infant, and didn’t give OP any alone time even if it was to pump milk or breastfeed, with the Redditor adding: Her husband constantly tried to get his mother to stop her behavior, but they eventually had to kick her out and send her home. By extension, OP’s brother-in-law (BIL) and grandmother also had to leave. OP revealed that her father would usually watch the baby during the week, which irritated MIL because she felt it was unfair. Her complaint didn’t make sense as she lived an hour and a half from OP’s place. The MIL harassed OP and her husband for months before they eventually allowed her to watch her granddaughter every Wednesday at their apartment. The day before the Redditor put up her post, she was halfway through her shift at work when she received a call from her BIL. He told her his mother called him all hysterical saying she’d dropped her granddaughter and was afraid the child was seriously hurt. OP was frustrated that her MIL decided to call her BIL who lives an hour and a half away with her. The mother of one quickly hung up before trying her MIL seven times with no answer! She then called her mother who lives closer to her house, and the parent immediately went over.
