Mil Rant
#61
OMG Sharon, you had so much s**T to cope with before you left here, and now you have that stuff to contend with. I feel for you I really do, I had to live with the MIL for 3 months :scared: when we arrived in UK from Hong Kong. All I can say is I am glad I was out of the house for 12 hours a day doing up my house. If not there would have been a bl**dy big dug hole in the back garden and a new patio laid before you could say "Shut your face you old cow"!!!
Hope you get it sorted soon

My MIL followed us to Brisbane 9 days after we arrived to stay with us for 2 months!
My husband even paid for her bloody ticket.
She hates our son, he is 11yrs old, she had 8 children 2 girls and 6 boys and hates boys.
For 3 weeks she has refereed to our son as "that child" "the boy"
"stupid creature" and cackles at everything he says as if he is stupid.
She doesn't like me or my daughter much either she actually said to me the other day I suppose you have let yourself go because you work and earn money, in my day you had to keep yourself nice to keep your husband.
I am no scruff by the way and wash and blow dry my hair everyday and wear make up every day.
I grew up in a very hostile home with a very aggressive father and I am so terrified of being like him that I suppress a lot of my feelings.
BUT, I went shopping with my daughter yesterday and when we came home my husband and MIL were sitting watching TV and hadn't seen my son for 2 hours.
I went out into the street to look for him and was told that he rode of on his own a while ago, I drove around like a mad woman and found him about 2 miles away standing over his bike crying, he was running away :scared:
He had heard his Grandmother speaking about him horribly with his father and the dad that he adores wasn't even sticking up for him, he was bloody agreeing!!!!!
My husband was pulling his hair out to me last week about his mother not liking our son and now he is sitting there agreeing with her. What is this bloody hold? My husband is a different man around her!
I calmed our son down and took him home and forgot to suppress my feelings lol
I went mad, I said to them he is a bloody child and she said oh for goodness sake he is nearly 12 (she talks like the queen by the way)
She then said well where is the boy he is ok isn't he!
He isn't the bloody boy or that child he is your bloody grandson and his name is Greg and no he isn't ok he is bloody upset, he already knew his Grandmother didnt like him but he is heartbroken to hear his father agreeing with you I didnt say this by the way I shouted it.
She just replied oh that stupid child... That was it, I said right that's it I have had enough I am not willing to have someone under my roof that doesn't like my children you can both **** off.
AAAAAGGGGHHHHH thing is there is no where for her to go, she has a son and DIL up the road who's son has grown up and left home but they wont have her, I have phoned them and asked twice but they say no way, they have never forgiven her for the way she treated their son.
I am so angry, I knew what she was like and I made my husband promise that if she stayed with us that he would have to be loyal to us and not let this happen again and he has let me down so badly.
So I am stuck in a small holiday rental with a witch of a MIL and my husband neither of whom are speaking to me or me to them, and I am feeling so pissed off its unbelievable. I havent even got a bloody car I can off for the day in.

Mate, what an absolute nightmare.....although I must say the other son and DIL sound as if they've got the right idea.
I also go with what Biggy said!!!! Nice one!

Dont know where as husband and her just walked out while I was in the bedroom with the children, but I just looked in her room and her case etc has gone.
I feel a bit sick that it came to this but it couldn't go on, when I picked the kids up from school they were consumed with talking about how much they dont like her and they wish she wasn't here. I couldn't even keep up the good mother act and tell them that she is their grandmother and that they have to show her respect, I had gone past it.
I am interested to see what my husband has to say for himself now she has gone.

I was just off to bed and a mate said read this thread.
Thank f**k she's gone, however I was looking forward to throwing the bitch out myself when I visit Brisbane soon, gutted now
As for your husband, he needs one of those spinal insertion tools, did he have his removed at birth? He should have cut the apron strings long ago. What a horses arse! Outrageous
What must your poor lad be thinking.
I thought I had the monopoly on useless, waste of space MIL's, I was wrong.
Take care Sharon

I hope you are okay, and hubby returned.
I also hope in a way he doesnt read all this, as he may get angry. The old saying "What goes on within these four walls, stays within these four walls".
Mind you, he could do with reading it all to see how his behaviour is totally unacceptable.
Hope you come back on soon.

Hi
Well latest update is that my husband put her in a hotel.
My husband has made a lot of apologies to all of us today, no excuse but as far as he was concerned when he was agreeing with his mother no-one was in the house and he was just trying to keep the peace, my son had been out playing but had come back and stood at the door. He is horrified that Greg heard him and has done everything he can to try and rectify it and realises that it will take a while.
The family seem much more relaxed already now that she has gone although I just cant help not liking the idea of her stuck in a hotel rooml. BUT not bad enough to have her back.
Thank you so much for all of your replies some of them very sound and the ones that were not so sound gave me huge relief and made me laugh.
