I am with NY MOM. If you love your husband, remember he is the product of the way in which she raised him. Maybe her advice is CORRECT. Even if it is not, or you merely think it is not, you can still thank her for her input and then do whatever you and your husband choose. She is not the enemy, but if you act immaturely and always think that no matter what she says, it’s wrong, then YOU are the problem, not she. I ahd an outstanding relationship with my in-laws, and they often voiced their unsolicited opinions. So what? So did my parents. Sometimes their opinions were very valuable and saved us from making costly mistakes. When I felt that something they said wasunhelpful, I thanked them anyway, and did what I felt was best. We NEVER had a personal machlokess about anything. And I wish they were both still alive to continue to give me advice.
