You are in a situation that I hope to never find myself in. My mother in law doesn't like me either and she has no problem letting me know that. If there does come a day when she needs me, I will be there to help her. I am not the kind of person who is going to do payback to someone who really needs me. If you help her maybe you will become much closer and she will actually start to see that you aren't so bad after all.

If her daughter is in the picture, then her daughter should be the one taking care of her mother. Why don't you talk to your husband about getting someone to take care of your MIL so you don't have to do it.

Years ago my mother-in-law was mean and she didn't like me much either. Then she became seriously ill with breathing problems and she changed when she realized that her time was short. She was nice to me and to her grandchildren so I was nice to her in return. Most religions teach charity and that it begins at home. If it were me, I would help the mother-in-law who never liked me and let her see the wonderful, caring person that I am. Let your mother-in-law see for herself how she has misjudged me and, hopefully, fill her heart with light. You can try talking to her but, if she denies what you know to be true, drop it and help her. I think it will benefit both of you and that you could regret it for a long time if you don't.

I have the same problem with my mother in law with being mean to me all the time. I say dont help her because she will just keep on being mean to you and telling you are doing everything wrong. I tryed helping my mother-in-law to show her that I am a kind and loving person and she was just as mean as she can be.

Maybe you should talk to her about it. Just ask her straight out why she never liked you and didn't treat you good. it may be just because mothers have a hard time letting go of their sons and feel like no one is good enough for them. you can't not take care of her though because it will cause problems between you and your husband. now, if your husband doesn't think you should help her then the choice is totally up to you. i for one don't really want to have to deal with my mother in law when she can't take care of herself.
