...Like a nightmare, only REAL.
My Lifemare comes in the form of MIL, and seriously if you have one, you know what that means.
Everyday of my lifemare, I have to be prepared for a fight. Not a fist fight or a verbal fight, but a fight to defend MY rights as a mother. Standing your ground to someone who has always asserted herself as a co-parent is difficult. She thinks she has a say to what goes on. She thinks its ok to let im off with the things that make him a bad person. I however, do not. Time outs are a regular punishment in this house for my son, we don't spank. So I don't think its any of her business when I put him in time out for being a little jerk and be questioned about it. Don't get me wrong, I love my son completely, best lil thing to happen to me ever! But I'm not afraid to call it like I see it. He punches the dog. flies into fits over nothing, decides he can tell me what to do. So i'm not afraid to call him a little jerk under my breath sometimes. Anyway, my point of blog is this...do not let your MIL dictate your life and the life you have planned out for your kids. She has no right to tell you how you should raise your child/children. Anyone out there with the same issue, we need to unite against our evil MILs and save the world. there, nuff said.
