My husband and I just moved our family, about 40 miles away frm his family. We haven't yet had his mom over our house. We <BR>have invited her lots of times.My mother MIL<BR>is very sick right now and has been for over <BR>a year now,she has cancer.But I the daughter <BR>in-law has been right there for her as much<BR>as, possible.But My sister in-laws have always,disliked me and so had my MIL.I have <BR>just gotten a little closer to my MIL since,<BR>two years ago.She had told my husband I was <BR>cheating on him with a friend of his.Two days after our Anniversary.She all so went to my 8 year old daughter, and told her to<BR>lie. That it was okay to say mommie was with<BR>another man.To say the least,I was fumming,<BR>I had never disrespected her befor.But I had had it,with the sickning remarks and all that she has blame me for.Her daughters are just like her.They tell you that they realy care about you and how good you are for there brother and son.But as soon as you walk out there burning the phone up with one another.Each one of them will get made with there other sister or mom and pick up the phone to call me.Just to tell me that when I walked out the door.That they other one was talking so bad about me.But when I have confronted one another with what I hear.That one will say she's just made at me.Thats why she called you and lied to you.But the truth is I know parts of the story is the truth,<BR>because she's the only one I may have told this information to.But back to A.My mother in-law has not yet came out to our home.But she will drive to her daughter's house,thats 50 miles away frm her.She is has hurt my husband and our children feeling.My husband feels so bad about his mother being very sick.But don't know why she has always treated him as an out cast.But when she needs something or his sisters they call on him.And exspect him to be there right then. They blame me,for he works all the time,and bearly has time around our house for things to be fixed.My children hate to go around his people,for they tell me all the time.Mommie all they do is talk about us.They don't care how we feel.This is so true.I've told my husband since we moved away maybe his little sister want drop by to run the gossup down to us.Im to the point that If there tlk about us.I don't want to know.I've already had another fallen out with his oldest sister for her lying.They love to lie.They should be awarded lyer of the year.And titled The Tampa Tribune Our weekly news paper.MILand SIL have all tried to split my husband up and also tried taking my kids away frm me,But the HRS worker that came out informed me that there was nothing found and that she informed me that they were very sick people and to get as far as i can away frm his family.They all said that I was cheeting on my husb,and that this so called boy was going to beat him up.LOL can you belive such.I've heared it all but this took me years to ever go back around to family gathrings.They would blame one sister and then another and then his mother.His mom did know about them calling hrs on me,but lied about it for years.Then one day she admitted to me,that my husb oldest sister had them called on her,and she wanted me to hurt like she has.What kind of crap is this?My mom tells me there all very sick and devel minded and that they need god in there life.All I can do is pray for such.So yesterday was a very bad day for my husb and children. We lost our little dog,that was our baby.My mother in law calls me because I haven't been calling her as I use to and Im not tlk to any of his sisters any longer. So his mom says to me where have you been all day? I said Why do ask? she says we tried to call you but could,t get through,(My phone had been disconected for about 1 hour,by the phone company,For not showing my payment,But anyway the bill had been paid and of course they turned it back on as soon as I called them.But this was all my MIL needed to go tell the world,That we did not pay our bill.You know we had one of the worst days of our lives,by losing our dog and then our phone was shut off by the ph company's neglect to post our payment.MIL didn't even ask how our kids were or us,But just to say will your alright then I tlk to you later.HELLO!This is a mother and a Grandmother?My husband is bitter with all of them,But still feels obligated to do for them.Because there so controlling.Can you help with me to understand?My husband tells me there all jealous of me,as a good mom and a good wife,and so careing with my family.<BR>Do you have any advice for me.(Just to stay the ****away frm them all.) How?

Oh my Gosh....I thought my MIL was bad.<BR>You did the right thing moving away. I would try to limit my time with them. We moved 8 hours away from my in-laws and I am soooo HAPPY we did. We also got call display so I know if its her calling...pretty bad eh... but I eventually had it and realized I'm not going to live my live letting her upset me all the time. <BR>You are in a tough situation - seeing as she is very sick now, hats off to you for being there for her... it truly shows what a great person you are... especially after pulling that with the HRS thing....thats totally down there... just remember one thing that i truly believe in What goes around,comes around and they will get what they deserve. Its obvious that they aren't happy in thier lives if they have to resort to this kind of crap. <BR>My MIL always tries to pull mind games with my kids and I have finally laid my foot down to how much time they spend with thier grandparents, my oldest (10) finally realizes her ways (thank god) and thier is no way I'm going to let her get to my 5 yr old. <BR>Just remember that you are above all that crap and to watch your kids around them, I would be very limiting to the time they spend with them - if letting them be there at all.<BR>Good luck....
