Ever had a bad experience with meddling in-laws especially when it comes to raising your kids, what to feed them, when to feed them and a lot more? I must admit that I am not particularly close to my in-laws since we seldom see them (they live in a different country) and I am just thankful they are not too nosy when we go visit them about the things we do for our son. But I know not everybody are as lucky! Ever had a bad experience with in-laws you care to share? How did you deal with it?
In-laws. Love them or hate them, they are part of your family. After getting married, part of the “deal” is that you get to earn another set of “parents” thru

My mother-in-law once told me she didn't want to get in the way in raising my kids because she had a terrible experience with how her mother-in-law meddled with hers. I'm lucky to have her.

Wow, you are really lucky then! At least her experience made her become a better in-law and not the opposite.

@cessy_08 I belive smart people learn from the bad things and would never repeat that knowing it doesn't bring any good.

Oh that's nice! It is great to meet family members of people closest to us and to see they are as nice (or even better) makes the relationship fab!

You're lucky! Not every in-law is like that, though.

Oh yes! I had when our son was still small. Gladfully I didn't see them often although they lived not far from us.

It is annoying, isn't it? I mean advice is OK and very much appreciated but when start pushing it down our throat, that is when it gets irritating.
