I need some advice from people nicer than I am. My MIL is VERY sensitive, she cries a lot, so I need gentle suggestions. Ever since our son was born she takes almost 0 interested in my and my husband's life, and is OBSESSED with our son. She showed obvious disappointment one time when she came to our house and I was out with my son, so only DH was home and she immediately left. Since my son was born she NEVER asks to hold him, she comes right up in my face and ask the baby over and over (yes... I've resorted to ignoring her...) "Want to come to grandma?!" She hardly speaks to us when she invites us over and just talks to the baby. I'm at the end of my rope. I can't just leave him with her because I don't trust that she would respect our parenting choices, but we DREAD seeing them now.
