I'm sorry but he sounds like a 'mama's boy.' All the kids do, and it IS unhealthy. This woman sticks her nose into places where she shouldn't be, and someone needs to deal with her. And it SHOULD be one of the boys!! Trouble is, it looks like it's never going to happen. If your husband felt guilty cause he didn't invite his mother to his brothers house with you, then I'm afraid it's a lost cause.

This stinks. She must have started brainwashing these boys from the time they were born. She's a nosy old crone in my book. She reminds me of my ex-mother in law. YUCK. That woman was the death of me, until I got so mad at her, I called her everything in the book and ordered her out of my home! My husband actually agreed with me, but was too scared to say anything to her -- so I had to be the "bad guy."

It's up to your husband to do something about this. I agree that your kids should have separate relationships with each uncle/aunt etc., without the old crone around all the time. And she has NO business knowing everyone else's business! She needs to get a life of her own. You might suggest she join the local Senior's group -- they always have social events, etc. Maybe that will keep her busy.

I wish I knew what else to tell you. I tend to be a stubborn Irish woman, and I wouldn't go if SHE was going to be there, but i DON'T suggest that for you. It would undoubtedly cause more trouble, but that's just the way I am. LOL I wish you the very best. God bless and please take care. Hugs, Lee
