I am starting to hate my in laws!!! I have learned to accept who they are but recently, my MIL has gone overboard. She got upset at me because of invalid reason. I cannot stand her being so sensitive. Why can't she just shut up and give us peace. She causes me and my husband to disagree. I hope they just leave us alone.

It's sad when mothers-in-law decide to be jealous of, and compete with, their daughters-in-law. Some MILs just can't let go. In her defense, she's his mama and as a mom of boys myself, it's heartbreaking when you've been #1 to your son for his entire life, he goes off and picks someone else to be #1. But that's the way life goes, and she has to get over it. Your husband is responsible for not letting her get away with being a brat or meddling in your lives. He needs to man up! When he married you, his #1 job became loving and protecting his wife and family. If he chooses to protect his mama instead of his wife, then he's in the wrong and needs to grow a set. :)

I used to have ill feeling with my inlaws specifically to siblings of my husband. I was craving for their love or even just a drop of respect but I realized i should not ask or expect of something same what my family is giving to my husband. So now i told myself as long as Im with my husband, we live with all the love and understanding and we are living with happiness together with our two lovely angel I dont give a damn to people who has nothing to do good to me and my family.

I can't help you with that, I detest my in-laws and I refuse to ever speak to them again.

Get a copy of the Jennifer Lopez movie, "Monster-in-Law", and invite her over for dinner and a movie. 
Seriously, your best defense against a meddling mother-in-law is your husband; it is his responsibility to maintain good order in his home. If you cannot depend upon his putting a stop to his mother's mess, you'll have to learn to deal with the situation or kick 'em both to the curb.

It is really hard to deal with mother-in-laws who always meddle in wife-husband matters of her son or daughter. Sometimes there are really in-laws who are like that. We daughter-in-law just have to adjust to their attitude but I know there will come to a point that we can't take anymore what they are doing. Just relax.
