My mother-in-law missed my birthday. When it came up in conversation two weeks later, she apologized and graciously explained, ” I didn’t really think of you as part of the family.” My husband and I had been married for nearly three years when this happened and I haven’t spoken to her since.

That is shocking… I wouldn’t speak to that woman ever again. Hope your hubby is worth that kind of rubbish!
Jennifer, I am guilty of this action and ashamed to say it. I had raised all my sons’ girlfriends except this one. I have been overbearing because the others were like my children. You should print out how to be a good mother-in-law suite 101 online. The “Don’ts” fit me to a tee. I want my son to be happy and am willing to follow this guideline for the love of her and my son. It is their happiness I realize I value. Then the family is happy. Don’t give up on your motherinlaw send her that article .

Sheila, thanks so much for sharing that site! It’s a great help to me, and I sent the related links to my daughter and son-in-law.
Jennifer, my husband’s family of origin NEVER accepts “outsiders” as REAL family, which is very hurtful. Their attitude is that, if you’re not a “smith” you’re really not important.
The only marriages in that family that have survived over the years are the ones where the “Smith” spouses were up-front and plain-spoken about the situation: Marriage makes two people one, and therefore, the new spouses are indeed family. A couple of us have essentially cut ties for the most part, and that’s been the most helpful of all.
Here’s some good advice Don’t ever EVER marry the baby of the family. She is controling and loves spreading rumors about me but “loves” me to my face also thrives on the idea that she has people hating me. This woman loves drama and has everyone bowing down to her.
