Hi dear. I can understand what you are going through Try to communicate it your husband and be firm and polite to convey your boundaries to your mother in law.

You should talk to your mil and your husband both about. Tell them how this kind of behaviour will have a negative impact on the children. I feel honest communication would make things better. Also the things your mil is very particular about and is touchy about, make sure you get that task done, you can hire people to do it also so that she is not triggered. Try and understand her point of view, it will help you in having peace too.

First and foremost calm down.. Getting agitated is not going to resolve things. Talk to your husband and your Mother in law.. let them know what's acceptable and what is not. Talk to your mother in law seperately also and try to find what her real issue is ... she too must be going through some challenges and venting her frustration out on you .. Having said that you nit necessarily have to bear the brunt ! All the best 👍

Hey! So sorry to hear about this..what you can do please note down the points where your mother in law gets agitated or scream on you and try to find out the pattern of her behaviour. Then you can modify your actions and reactions according to that so that she will also try to understand that you are making efforts to understand her as well. Hope this works for you..and of you want more suggestions you can join live sessions.

Sometimes my mom think she's not a good mother or a smart woman just because she didn't enter college and is a house mommy. What can I do for her on Mother's Day? I am a young adult.

Let her know you appreciate her sacrifices and the love she's given you. You could write her a heartfelt letter or spend quality time together doing something she enjoys.

You can spend time with her and communicate it to her how important she is for you and about what all she has done for you. Make her feel special. Go out and relive your childhood memories with her.

How do I approach my daughter about not calling or greeting me on Mother's Day? It really hurt my feelings, and I want to express that to her in a constructive way.
You can just call or convey it directly to her but in a more gentle way, not like you are expressing your anger over her. Jut tell her that I was expecting you to wish me and you didn't so I felt a little bad about it.

Acknowledge their loss, express sympathy, and offer support. Say something like, I'm here for you if you need to talk or if there's anything I can do to help you through this difficult day.Showing empathy and understanding is key.

I am a mother and an educator in charter schools and ABC Youth Foundation. I host several podcast it's a huge passion of mine and I also produce I strongly feel that empathy is the glue of humanity and without it what do we have for understanding one another and being kind toward one another is what keeps Us human it's what makes it work and without it what can possibly get better you must hold on to that and remember and show it where it's needed so that people can know what it is and be able to show that same to others connecting and growing with others is within the foundations of empathy that's how the world gets better so we can understand we don't have to directly know one another we must be that change and it starts with us, we must be the change we want to see!more
