Re: Mother in law crossing boundaries- Help needed

I think you really need to sit down and talk this out with her, not him. I understand that he doesn't want to be disrespectful to his mother but it seems to be overwhelming. I know I would be if I was in that situation. Your husband seems to be very easy going and doesn't want to disappoint anyone, yet he doesn't see that he is disappointing his wife. (My husband does the same thing).

From your story, it seems that either she has control/boundary issues Like Raymond said, and/or maybe she feels that you as a wife cannot provide that for him so she feels that she is helping. Either way, YOU need to talk to her, not your husband, to try to clear things up and ultimately be happy in your marriage.
