Which show did you watch?

Quote From: nycfan

That daughter in law should be kicked to the curb. Who the hell died and left her in charge? And where is her husband's backbone? He should tell his wife that his mother deserves respect. He should also tell her to apologize to his sister and her family, as well as his friends. And to say those horrible things  about a young child. I hope to hell she never becomes a parent.

I think you may have had the wrong channel on.   

RESPECT IS EARNED - NOT ISSUED for all individuals.  Parent, Spouse, Child. 

It appears that the daughter in law has tried to have a normal marriage while dealing with a very emotionally damaged son and an equally damaged and bullying mother in law.  I hope they all heal and evolve into a healthy family unit.  Unfortunately, the mother in law has lived with this controlling mindset for far too long. 

Good luck.

This is a joke, right?  This is obviously the mother-in-law from the show posting.  Good try...

        I am actually sadder for you, than the family on the show today!  Of course mothers should receive respect.  I am a mother of 3 gorgeous boys, and can't imagine them not caring for me.  However, I also realize that when a man chooses a wife, he has also chosen his family.  After that, the rest become relatives.  Your wife and children, or your husband and children, should always be first in your life.  I hope your husband feels that way, and I hope you are thankful and appreciative for it.  Mothers earn respect, and love by giving it.  If that were the case in this situation I don't think there would be such a problem.

Dear NYC Fan, 

For some crazy reason, you find fault with the daughter-in-law.  Did you see this show?   

No one had to die to give her control.  She is the lady of the house.  She is married to her husband.  Her mother-in-law has her own house and life to manage.   

The mother- in-law lost her right to respect when she came into the house and then into the bedroom, unannounced, while the couple was making love.     A court is not going to grant a protection order to anyone who has someone stalking her if the court doesn't have reasonable cause to do so.   If the mother-in-law wants respect, she should behave in a respectable manner.   The wife doesn't need to apologize to anyone.  The entire family knows how the mother acts.    What the family needs to do is to get the mother into counseling.  She is apparently in need of psychological help.

Were we watching the same show?  The daughter-in-law is just at her breaking point -who wouldn't be if that woman was your mother-in-law?!  She doesn't owe anyone an apology in my opinion.  The MIL took no responsibility for her role in the situation - the lies continued!!!
