So, so true. I see it in "real life", as well as here. People can be so critical of others for displaying the faults that they themselves have. Why is that? (And no, I am not saying that carrying a few extra pounds is a fault.)

I'm so sorry that your mother in law can be so unpleasant Lori. As far as mother in laws go, I was very lucky. My in laws were always welcoming, friendly, loving. Not saying we have always agreed about everything, but I never felt less than welcome in the family. I don't think I appreciated my mother in law nearly enough when I was younger.
