Tips For Dealing With a Mother In Law. Now this is a rough article to tackle. the moment you

attach the words "In Law" to describe whom a person is supposed to be. It is as if you

have to be kind to them in fear of some form of marriage police coming to your house

dragging you out side in your p.js and flogging you for not getting along with your mom in

law. If you ever wondered when most divorces really began. It usually starts with the

words "and say hello to my mom." Now I know not all mother in laws are bad. specially if

they reside in another state, maybe locked away or at least look like Morgan Fairchild. But

of course as my luck had it, mine lived in the same house, would probably never be committed

and looked like she could possibly go three rounds with Mike Tyson. And to top it off was

from Arkansas, which really wasn't a bad thing since eight different relatives all resided

within three bodies.(Uncle Nate was also brother and cousin. While Aunt Perl was also the

grandma and half sister) Please, do not get me wrong I really tried to be nice to her. I

figured even the daughter of Satan could use a little kindness now and then. But sometimes no

matter how hard you try it never helps. And I really tried. A fellow at work told me one

time he had sleep apnea, When I asked him what it was he informed me it was where you quit

breathing at night. I replied "Huh, my mother in law has the same problem... but I always

feel guilty and pull the pillow off her head at the last second!" two weeks out of the month

for the last three years, she believed I had saved her life. she awoke to me sitting on her

and pounding on her chest screaming "Breath Damn You!" of course I know I shouldn't be making

fun of her, she was almost in a head on collision yesterday... but i did not pay the man

enough and he swerved at the last second... Who you gonna tell? all you can do is kiss the

two hundred and fifty good-bye and think of another plan. (Just Kidding!) But dealing with a

mother in law is hard, I just try and remember that she is just trying to protect her

daughter and that what she is doing to drive us crazy, to her is no more than a mother doing

what she has to do as a parent. Even though her daughter is now thirty-five has two kids and

is working, finishing collage and managing a household. Can we all say "Let go Mom" So you

want a tip for dealing with your mother in law? Just remember it is the same formula as

it is with any relationship. Always treat a woman as God intended, like she is special

Then show them comfort without judgment... compassion without expectation... and love

without measure... Now if that still does not work, a blow gun and non lethal knock out

darts can easily be found on line, with no questions asked.
