Valid point, but it's actually more of an FML for the op and a YDI for the mother-in-law

Yeah that's what I meant, but I guess I wasn't careful in wording. Thanks for pointing it out, I edited my post since then! D:

So deny her her the grandkids for being a bitch?? So in that case I should deny my kids their father because he is a asshole.

#41 First of all, the two situations you're comparing are substantially different. Secondly, if my mother were to mistreat my wife or disrespect her in any way, I would definitely think twice before dropping our children off with her. If she's willing to disregard my wife's feelings during our WEDDING, what makes you think she won't talk shit about her to our children? I don't want our kids in that kind of environment. So yes, I would definitely consider keeping our kids away from their grandma if she was a disrespectful bat.

#41 You write on your profile that "I'm a happily married women" but then state your husband is an asshole. I know both are not mutually exclusive, but are you really happy being married to an asshole?

She might have been speaking hypothetically.

True, or the kids' father is really an asshole but the husband is another man. Hadn't thought of those options at the time.

#62 don't be an asshole and bring up someone's personal life, that's a pathetic excuse to argue with someone, just don't. If you don't agree with someone's opinion, challenge it in a respectful and knowing manner. I personally don't agree that you should forgive and forget everything because someone is family, but it's not my life nor decision to make. Lay off.

#72, when someone's being a hypocrite, no one's gonna "lay off". nobody has to conform to your beliefs either

Conform to my beliefs? Seriously? I just said don't be a total asshole, I'm pretty sure that's a general attitude of everyone. Geez you go out of your way to perpetrate me as a dictator for defending someone, you have issues lmao

#80 Technically speaking, everyone's an asshole to a certain degree. Please don't be one of those people whose hypocritical head is stuck up their hypothetical asshole of a personality.
