No because half of it was learnt from her 😩

Well, I gave it a shot. I spoke with her about the issues my husband and I disagree on—specifically, why I always seem to be the one who has to give in more often just to maintain a stable and peaceful relationship! But she simply said she couldn’t offer any input... that she has to remain neutral. So, thanks a lot for your help and support! Consequently, I’ve decided it’s better to discuss these matters in therapy instead—rather than bringing them up with my mother-in-law or in-laws. My in-laws are absolute sweethearts—I love them dearly—but I’ve realized and understood that speaking ill of my husband to them only ends up making *me* look bad. So, I’ll just stop talking to them about it; I’ll handle it in therapy instead. That way, when I return home, I can focus on resolving things directly with my husband.
