My FIL and Step MIL, BIL and 2 SIL's are great! They have the occasionally family drama, but nothing worth complaining about...

Notice I didn't mention my MIL... My DH doesn't talk to her. She has made a lot of mistakes, and choices that make it so my DH is a much happier person with out her in his life. He felt he had to stop contact with her to keep his self esteem, health, happiness, and overall life better. She hasn't tried to contact him since he made that decision, so I think either she really just doesn't care, or she just wants the pity from others that "her son doesn't talk to her".

I have SO many friends that tell me it is actually a blessing to not have a MIL butting into my marriage.

It is a blessing i wish i could have a relationship with my mil but it's just not worth the stress on me and my children i mean you can only be fake for so long ya know.
