Me vs the mother-in-law

I'm done capitulating to my mother-in-law. We get along fine, but there's been a power struggle going on and I've decided it's time to settle things once and for all. Last night I got to hold my nuts to the fire and see if I was up to the task.

Last week my wife tells me she's having her mom and some of her friends over on Saturday night just for fun. Translated, this means her mom told her she was bringing some of her hi-faluting friends over to nitpick my wife's housecleaning and make "suggestions" on how to fix the house up.

Then they tell me that I have to lock up my German Shepherd while the guests are here because they are intimidated by dogs. Granted, he's intimidating if you don't know him, but screw you, this is my house. So as soon as everyone shows up and gets comfortable, here I come down the stairs with my ball python wrapped around my neck.

Of course once the old ladies focus in and realize that's a snake draped from my neck, the whole house erupts with shrieking women jumping on the furniture and scrambling for the exits. After they find out that it's either this or the dog, they actually take my side and tell my mother-in-law that it's my house and she can't tell me to lock up my dog.

I let my dog out, let him jump right up on the couch while my mother-in-law cringed and downed her entire glass of wine in one gulp, and invited all the women back anytime.

Generally speaking - not a wise idea to come between a woman and her mother. The results could be

Round Two - the dog lives here, YOU don't.
 
Bad move. Definately showed a lack of initiative on that one, she'll only come back bitchier. You definately should have preemptively burned her house down, to show her you mean business.
 
Congrats on asserting your manliness, but I'm sure there were better ways to do it then threatening them with animals.

Good for you!

I hope that I am not badly behaved when VeggieFrog and Neosenate get married. I don't think I will be... they live together now and after spending almost 2 weeks with them, he sent me an email telling me that i am welcome anything.

But seriously, sometimes parents have a hard time remembering that they kids are grown up... like they were at that age.
 
Good job! :beer: You've gotta get the mother-in-law trained before you have a kid. When you have a baby, it gets worse. Everything you do is wrong because it isn't how she did it.

Actually I have found that the grandparents need to have the law layed down in respect to the grandkiddies and what they let them get away with.

I have come to the conclusion that grandparents are doing their job...enjoying the little ones....not raising them 🙂

 
Wow, lots of whiped pussies in here.

Let me give you a little piece of advice: NEVER cave to an inlaw. NEVER. Don't start from the beginning and it's easier, but if it's too late for that, set your foot down now and never back down. It'll get messy at first but you'll win if you don't cave.

Let them know flat out that it is YOUR house, YOUR family, YOUR kids YOUR wife (or husband as it may be) and YOUR life. They are merely audience.

BTW, this stands for your parents as well.
