I know what you are thinking why am I writing this, his mom, but I need advice on how to handle this…….My daughter in laws mom has hated my son forever, she doesn’t know everything about what has gone on between them Like I do, she thought at one time my son wasn’t working and her daughter was and paying all the bills, when the truth was my son was working and she was at home doing nothing, but when they needed money to get out of the lease she told her family that because of my son not working and spending all the money she had made they were in trouble. Now she and her family treats him like dirt, Her 14 yr old daughter told her Aunt last night that she hated that F——r, and her Aunt said “Even when you are being ignore you stick around”. They were having a surprise party for her Mom. Listening to my son today and the hurt in his voice, it was unbearable. But if I say anything to her, I would be butting in, and the time I did say something she said if he didn’t have the guts to say something that his problem. I told him if she would stop talking bad about him and admit to what she has been doing that would help, but she won’t. She has a spending habit, takes her check and blows it on things. I really love my DIL but it hurts to hear my son this way, he is ready to end the marriage. He can’t handle much more. I’ve seen her mother, and she knows better than to treat him like dirt in front of me, cause I don’t care what I say, I don’t owe her anything. Any words of advice would be helpful, I tell my son to tell them the truth, but he don’t want them to think bad of her. Can any one give me some good advice?

Ooooooo girl, u need to tell that woman off, I am serious, tell your son that if he doesn’t tell her off you will cuz SOMEone needs to. People like that seriously need to be told off! She needs to be confronted by someone who isn’t scared of her. And who CARES if they think badly of ur DIL, she shouldn’t have lied in the first place! Let her lie in the bed she’s made.
Wow! I just found this website a couple of days ago. The sad advise is that we cannot fix our our son’s problems. They have to make choices as adults who are in charge of their lives. I have a DIL that has lied to her parents about work also. There is no telling what she has told her parents about our family and my son.. They have lived with us the last year. Her mom thought she was on disability leave from a job. I kept quiet because my son was dealing with his wife’s pregnacy problems. He married her because he got her pregnant after a very short dating period. That was almost two years ago. To this day no one has told me what’s the real truth. There is no baby. I don’t know if there ever was but an alledged pregnancy lasted for 9 months. I shopped with her, buying baby stuff when I could afford to, including a breast pump and bottles the last month. All I have been told is that my DIL is Bi-Polar and has an over active thyroid desease. My son was going crazy with the many many lies she told him. He chose to stay with her. I chose to support his decision. She thinks I am the enemy. The truth is I would probably be the best friend she has ever had if she would sit down and have a heart to heart. I would never try to make up my son’s mind for him. He is free to choose his mate and his life. I just want the two of them to face and fix their problems honestly with each other. Honestey with both parents would really be nice and show that they have grown past the crap. All anyone wants to do is help them have a good life on their own.
