When my wife and were living together my MIL wanted a huge (500 people) wedding. My wife stepped up and told her no, my MIL then proceded to drive over to the house and tried to physically abuse my wife. I just called the cops, and that did it. We didn't speak to her for 4 years and when my daughter was born, i thought it would be right for her to know her grandmother(she seemed rehabilitated). The MIL went to counseling and therapy. While there has been no reoccurance of the physical abuse, she is an Italian Mother who can let go of the past. I have never took her ****, and she could never come to terms with that. She has tried to buy, bribe, and guilt me into things...but in the end my wife had to take the step by herself...and she did. So I am now onto happily planning our summer vacation to Bills training camp with an easy mind. And thanks again to my TBD bretheren. james

Yeah, we are both thankful. Due to her disposition that will "never allow her to stoop to our level", we are getting on with our lives. Just another paver in the walk-way of life. And thank you to all you TBDers that responded, it helped more than you can possibly imagine. Just to know you are not the only one to go through this is a blessing.

like I have always said, thats what makes this show so great. And then coming here to discuss it. Just glad you and others here to bounce ideas off of.

Well I think I got my answer. My wife wrote my MIL a letter and stated our feelings towards her. She replied and said she will never apologize to anyone and that she cannot forgive us for what we have done. So due to that she is no longer speaking to us....ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TGREG, isn't this in contrast of what you believe? A few lost post back didn't you say that Locke purposely sent Boone to his death? I am confused. This article seems to state that Locke does what he does to help the others, not hurt them.

Good point, if letter doen't work than I have no problem with telling her how it is

FIL is divorced and wants no part of it. I am a man, but I feel that my wife should be the one to sever the ties...I don't want her having any regrets, that I made her do this or that. My MIL know exactly how i feel, I have told her on more than one occasion. But me standing up to her is not the same as one of her own kids doing it. No one stands up to her...they all fear her.

Well part of the reason we moved to NC was to get away from her! I sat my wife down and showed her all of these posts and she said "oh my". She has now formulated a letter that basically says we are happy and healthy and if you don't want to be apart of that in a constructive way then piss off. Now that being said I have already had to call the cops on her for nearly assulting my wife in my house. This happened 12 years ago. I can't do anything physical because of my size and no officer would believe me. The response should be immediate as wifey is sending it email.

She is a wrinkely old 60 years old. Smokes about 3 packs a day. Caught her a couple of months ago teaching my 7 year old to put out cigs. Unreal.

I like that moving her furniture around....I might try that. Being a big fella I can do it pretty throughly.

They dont speak....she blames him for all the bad stuff in her life, and of course I remind her of him, so I just suck all the way around.

Yes, 7 year old little girl, of course her only grandchild

Captain mcgillicuddy was a great thread...I loved it. Got to see it happen first hand

How many of you guys have an out of control mother in law? I have been married to my wife for 11 years. 4 of those she didn't speak to us. She is the type of woman that comes over the house and re-arranges your furniture. She despises me because I stand up to her...I'm not Rambo with her, just tell her how I feel. I have the total support of my wife, but it is coming to a point of no return. We have family functions and she makes all others (my family, my wifes dad and his family) totally uncomfortable. I have tried to put a good face on it, but alas. She still sees me as the man who "stole" her daughter away. Would like some input, thoughts, or stories...just to know I'm not alone. Thanks and Ron Mexico rules.

I always enjoyed Mary Jane Rottencrotch

Dick Pound Chuck Easel

Also i was thinking with the birth of Clare's child, and the circumstances around the birth. Didn't the french women say she killed her own son, I think his name was Alex? The medium that Clare went to in Austrailia say that she had to raise the child alone or there would be terrible consequences.

i enjoy how they do an episode totally centered around Locke, and then the following episode he is not present. It shows the depth of this show. I too agree that jacks wife was the lady saved from his father.

Wow, what an intense show. I noticed jack's tatoo has the number 5 in it. Is that one of the numbers? It seems the island takes one life and gives another. Also jack's bride was wearing 44 on her shirt.

I agree somewhat, but think it will be defensive line or line backer. Especially after Donahoe and the d-line coach went to wisconsin to check out hte d-line player Hawthorne and jefferson.
