    stay out of it all- 90% of what we worry about never happens- back off- you want to help I guess but it's none of your bzness

    Your going to get through this one. Grandma knows what she is doing, tell her to stop this.

    tell her lovingly...This is what Im seeing...



    Believe it or not, You will one day thank her for being in your life. She might be a bit manipulating,

    a bit of a doter, but she is giving Love the best way she knows how...



    good luck.

    thank you all so much for your coments update

    i woud do any thing for my family , but they some times take advantage of you like i feel my mother in law did to us, but i learned alot . i would doany thing to help my neise anna and her grand ma(my mother in law) but i wouldnt ever move her in with me and my husnad, alothoght hinesite is 20/20 we did the right thing moving in with her trying to honer her . but i dont know why she took so much out on us . dont know if she was going threw flash backs of her mean mother in law and she was the daughter in law treated like crap how she treated us or what, mother inlaws 74, she trys to come off like shes a poor widow but what i see is a very strong woman that will minulapate her son and us to controle and get what she wants and when it backfires like us moving in she putches a temper trantram like a 2 year old child. if she dont get a grip on life she will repreat her mothers in laws passed life by winding up alone

    and no one to come around her , and that would be so sad. to end up like her mother in law marg. i think what she dont like about me is ive called her on what shes done to us and she dont like it i can see threw her little plans of minulapition.

    i dont wish any thing bad to happen to her but she causes her on h ell and she makes sure all around her suffer too if shes not happy no ones gona be happy, and that kind of stress i can have on my health becalse shes caused me so much stress that i had a stroke , and my health aint worth dying over her , head games .

    but i try to eccept her for who she is and shes bitter and wont change so it is what it is and i have to eccept it for what it is .

    but i wont put up with her stress so i try to stay away from her . she love s the controle game and iam not playing it. iam happy and she dont like it .

    jan.16, we bought a house and what a diffrence time makes.

    I think you are probably smart to think about what situation you might find yourself in down the road, especially if grandma is pretty old. Do grandma and neice live with you? Just wonder because it sounds like you are around them alot. Not wanting to put your family in a situation like the one you described with a destructive person doesn't make you a bad person. It makes you a person who loves her family and puts them first. That is love. I'm sure you would do whatever you could to help Anna if the situation came up, but there's nothing wrong with drawing the line at having her live with you. She is already 12 and no amount of mothering on your part is going to undo the damage. Just pray grandma lives at least another 6 years!



    Good luck!

    i think you should stand up for your self. and your husband will understand and he will respect you for standing up to his mother .
