I wish I have a personality like you pennybarry, but I am a really soft person. I have told everything to my father-in-law because he listens unlike my mum-in-law. He knows that she will get upset if I tell everything I don't like about her. Even my father-in-law keeps his mouth shut everytime his wife is about to start an argumet because he knows she's not gonna listen. He advised me to ignore her, but it is not that easy. He told me that his wife is not the easiest person to live with.
We (my husband and I) were on our own for a year and it was heaven but we had to move back again to them because of the unforseen circumstances. I am open with my husband about the situation and he is stuck in the middle. I told him that I would go back to the Philippines while I am on my maternity leave but he didn't like that idea. I also don't want to leave because my son needs his father and I will miss him to death but I don't want to be miserable!!!
Yes I am a first time mother, and she expects me to know all the things about being a mother. She doesn't even believe what the book says because she thinks that most of the writers of the books don't even have babies. She already judged a book without reading it.
