My Mother-In-Law Comes Over Every Single Day & I'm Losing It: Advice?

Mommas boys don’t ever change. Buy her a dog…

Perhaps she’s lonely.

What Debra does! Lol

Pack up and move no forwarding address . Oh ya slap the shit out your mommas boy husband

As you are having a talk to her. Tell her that once a week you are planning a “date” night with your husband ,just to bring a bit of magic back into your marriage.tell her that you would like time to arrange and plan a bit of time with just him, laugh and say you’re sure she’ll understand, say you’ll all go somewhere with her sometime soon. Don’t hurt he or upset her or you’ll regret it forever, this poor lady will have no idea you are feeling like this .

XANAX! See your primary care physician ASAP and tell them your story. Xanax are life savers! :raised_hands::laughing:

Ah noooo! A mommas boy! U need to appreciate that woman…guess this is tbe kinda nonsense ill be lookin forward too…

My mom was never in my life. I wish I had a mother in law and my kids a grandma to hang around with. When I first was married many years ago I felt like you but know I would give anything to have her in my life. Plus I am alone now with my baby and I love when my son invites me over or comes to my house without asking with my daughter in-law. I feel lonely some times and without them I would probably of given up. It feels good when your kids appreciate you and include you in your life. One day you will want your kids to do the same.

Remember not every child has their grandparents on their life. And they do not Live forever. My mom’s passed and my late husband’s mother has absolutely nothing to do with her grandchildren. Never did. So it’s just me and them. Some nuisances are other people’s blessings.

Although it is overwhelming just have a talk with her. Let her know you love and appreciate all she does but you need at least one day a week for family time. She may be lonely too. Remember once they are gone their gone would love it if my girls nana was still here x gl

Maybe she is lonely. She won’t live forever. Appreciate her while you can.

Would you feel the same if your mom came over everyday. Talking about family time. Your Mom in law is family. Include her in your family time. Have a blessed day with lots of love to you and your family

For all you saying you would love to have MIL around…yeah of course… but not EVERYDAY!
You know darn well u wouldnt like it, EVERYDAY.
I would love extra help but maybe limit to like 3x a week. Have “grandma time” or hv grandma come over an extra day and have her take the kids for the evening. Everyone needs their own space.

Talk to the husband first…it’s his family so try to have him handle it. Hopefully he will support you so it is a united front.

Leave when she comes over. You don’t always have to sit in the house.

My mother in-law tried to be over too often saying she wants to help with the kids. so I started wearing less clothes as did my kids (because who likes pants lol) She told me it was indecent and I told her I was in my house and I would wear what I want. Then I told her I would be having random nude days. She stopped coming over.

Let her know sometimes we all need that time to be alone no disrespect

Brenda MaxwellWell said Aunty@

It’s the same thing as if she lived with you. Be grateful you have that. As long as she’s not interfering in your relationship, who is she hurting. What I wouldn’t give to spend one more second with my mom. One day she won’t be there anymore and you’ll regret not having her there.

That’s definitely too much. Unless she’s helping out with childcare when you are working or you need a break, I think you need too let her know there’s a limit

That was uncalled for and unnecessary sorry you lost your loved ones but still no reason to attack the lady .

Wow. You are acting so nasty. Be nicer! This poor woman just wants alone time with her family. That’s not a bad thing to want, it’s very normal!

Tell her… as a MIL myself I would totally understand. I don’t even go without letting them know I will be by. That is just to much. It hard to relax when one has company.

Wow. Judgey much? You can set boundaries without being an ahole. EVERY day is too much.
