[Buttercup]

I know they're the butt of many a joke but what like is yours? Do you get on? or are you like oil and water? [lol]
Mine is sadly gone now, but we got on really well.

Mine is now sadly gone also, but I loved her from day one, and her daughter is turning into her double [lol]

I like my mother-in-law, but i am not sure about my mother ...Oh has many problems with her, so have to say depends whose M I L it is.........

[grandma]

Likewise Buttercup, my mother-in-law is no longer with us and although she could be quite difficult at times I got on well with her. Hope I can be half as good a mother-in-law when my turn comes. I still find myself going for the phone to tell her or ask her something.

[footie chick]

I would be so lost without my mother in law. One in a million.

I only met mine once and long before I 'met' my husband properly but she seemed realy nice. Sadly she died young of cancer, such a shame she never got to meet her grandchildren. I feel sorry for my husband having my mum as a mother-in-law. Well, you can't choose your family but sometimes you wish you could!

I remember Billy Connolly talking about meeting a woman in his wife Pamela's Surgery waiting room. They got talking and the gist of it was that the woman was there to seek advice on why she could not get on with her Mother-in-Law. Billy simply asked her "What made you imagine that you should expect to get on with her?"

Said it all for me. Like all people in this world, you will get on with some and have no time for others.

I can't find any fault with my smother-in-law at all.

[Rheghead]

My mother in law is OK, we have nothing in common but we are always friendly towards eachother. She is just probably just happy that I am still happy with her daughter.

My mother-in-law is no longer welcome in my house.

[Bobinovich]

I had a very iffy start with my MIL - she was very protective (rottweiler style) of her youngest, was too willing to listen to others (who didn't even know me) and, when she tried to stop her daughter from seeing me with violence, only succeeded in pushing her away. For many months after we didn't even talk.

After she realised that we were serious and that the 12-year age gap wasn't a problem, things got better and they've been pretty much fine since.

We don't always see eye-to-eye on matters, but she's solid, dependable and considerate, and she's great with all her grandkids (14 with another on the way!).

[BRIE]

my mother in law was a wonderful woman sadly we lost her to cancer & i still miss her everyday.
Im also very lucky that my now partners mother is lovely too!

[karia]

My mum in law is lovely but lives quite a distance away so don't see her that often.

When we do visit the list of 'things to be done' comes out and we can tell by the length of it whether we'll get home that night.:D
