My mother in law is very manipulative, she is one way around me, when we are alon and a complete other way, when anyone else is around. She is always manipulating her sons, one of them being my guy. I have no living parents so I do not see how my guy interacts with inlaws. How do you cope with annoying inlaws?

My mother in law is actually great and doesn't interfere with the way I bring up my son. Its the father in law that tends to say things and I know he means well. Sometimes his advice is ok and other times I just listen and tell him thanks for sharing.

Trust me on this...this best way is to stay away. These darn mothers who think they will forever OWN their sons make me wanna puke. The guys need to stand up and say ENOUGH...and it is up to the husband\son...
He is now a husband, mother need to back off.
Please just stay away and be strong...

How old are you, hon? Sometimes youth doesn't understand that you don't have to take the crap off mothers-in-law.
I thought I had to and the anger I had for her was just too much for my first marriage. I wish I had told her what I though of her. I was trying to be respectful when she wasn't respectful to me.
Honestly, mothers of the son can ruin a marriage by butting in to where they don't belong. Or by being there too long.
There are a couple of stories to tell about mothers-in-law, which I will tell briefly if you wish.
