Mother In Laws

This entry was spurred by one of my best friend. She is going through what all DIL will go though…hers’ just begun!

The In Laws… I have heard many many stories about in-laws… the worst stories are usually from the Mother In Law (MIL). From what I have heard from friends, I have categorized some of the horror MIL Types

The I Am Better Than You MIL
This type of MIL thinks that she is better than you when it comes to taking care of her son or your children … she wants to know what you cook for her son, what detergent you use, what cooking oil, salt, sugar you use… and whatever you use…will NEVER be good enough.


The MIL That Thinks She Is Married To Her Son
This one…fui yoh… I think the doctor forgot to cut the invisible umbilical cord. She will call her son minimum 10 times a day, asking him about everything from what he is doing, what he was eating to what he is wearing… FREAKY!!!! Wants to see her son everyday… cannot have him out of her sight. Usually, a mummy’s boy…

The Nosy MIL
This one wants to be a part of your life… and apart means very very attached to your married life… it would be like she is the third wheel… always in your house cooking for you, washing for you, insist to go out with you…she has to do everything with you…and the best?? She would love to live and sleep in the same bed as both of you!

The “Extra Nice” MIL
This MIL type is something that all should look out for. She will be extremely nice to you, but behind…wham bam…she backstabs you to the max… no need to elaborate more.

The MIL From Hell
This one is a combination of all of the above plus more… she will take full control over your life and your hubby and children, financially and emotionally…and you can’t run away from her cause she has gotten all your strings tied to her toes… She is very influential and well…she is the Empress Dowager.

I am not saying which type is my mom or my MIL…but well…both of them are categorized in there… just maybe not that extreme…which MIL is yours??
