My mother-in-law's demands really irritate my husband.
Photo is illustrative in nature. From open sources.

My husband doesn’t get along with his mother, and I’m caught between two fires. It seems that he is trying not to offend her. But she is always making demands: take it, bring it, buy it, repair it.

He does it all steadfastly. He tells me that this is my son’s duty. But he does everything through strength, with a heavy heart. Something almost went wrong, they had a scandal.

My husband explains to me his anger towards his mother by saying that from early childhood she always took it out on him because of her father leaving the family. She poked and blamed her father for all his sins. And she cherished his two sisters and still breathes over them. Even though they are already adults. She said that he was a boy and that it would cost him money to buy clothes and toys. Everything was for girls.

The mother-in-law seems to be a reasonable woman, but she always triesstrain my husband and as if on purpose. He always speaks so sharply, as if he’s waiting for him to explode (he’s a calm person, it’s hard to get him angry). When he breaks down and causes a scandal, she will be offended. But he still has to bring everything to her, test-antibiotic.com take her and help.

She did not come to our wedding because everything was not done according to her wishes. He doesn't bother with our children. Or rather, he has no interest in them at all.

I really want them to be friends. I want a friendly family. But I have already lost hope. Apparently themproblems with the depth of family relationships. I can not do anything. As soon as everything gets better, the mother-in-law will come up with something and demand a break. The scandal begins again.

Tell me what should I do? Don't communicate with her? If I don't, thenmy husband will stop too. After all, I always call her. We go to her and drag him. Or try to smooth out their difficult relationship in the same way?
