WHAT ARE SOME GENERAL ISSUES?


  • She will never concede that she's off-base

  • Will anticipate that you should satisfy her and follow her feelings, religion, culture, and so on

  • Will attempt to show she can control your husband and kids

  • Doesn't regard your words, decisions, or individual space

  • Plays emotional games to manipulate your partner and children

POSSIBLE REASONS FOR ISSUES

  • Your better half who is her child has now divided his love among you and her

  • She desires things being done her way and is not pleased with any change



TIPS FOR DEALING


  • Consider why she is treating you this way

  • Most of it is due to insecurity. Show that nobody can actually have her spot in anybody's life 

  • Explain your point of view courteously. Never speak to her in a loud voice

  • Avoid stretching the conflict. Try not to battle about past issues 

  • Take your better half's assistance. He should assume a functioning part in helping his mom acclimate to you

  • Remember that she's probably not going to change. Accept that this is the way things are and stop reacting. 

  • Think about her as your own mom


Note: Choose the cutoff to which you will bargain with your mother-in-law. If things go beyond the limit, talk to your better half, and discuss what to do.
