Yes. Most generally, they have a SMUG look, because they are leading their husbands around like dogs on a leash. They believe they are in control of everything important.
These are the 2 who used to spend 3 or 4 hours sitting at a table bragging about their kids at family gatherings. Both relived their teen years thru their kids. It was truely a sad thing to observe.
I'm so glad your husband stood up to them. About time someone did.
I'll never forget what she told me a few years ago.
My bil was having difficulty with the home that he was renting and there was a possibility that he was to be laid off from his job in NJ.
His wife told me that 'we haven't told mil yet, but we are going to come back to live with her...give her one room....and I'm going to start my daycare in the rest of the house.'
Right then and there I knew where she stood and believe me she WILL have NO say in my mil's business or G. will get an earful from me.
