Loopy MIL tales are nothing new. We’ve heard heaps of them and shared a number of prior to now (take a look at our wildest MIL reader confessions). However this MIL Christmas card story was too good to not share, particularly as we’re within the giving season. Yep, ’tis the season to offer however this mother-in-law is clearly not having a bar of it.
As an alternative of simply sending her son and his spouse a Christmas card wishing them a Merry Christmas, she additionally felt the necessity to ship them an itemised checklist of issues she had purchased or paid for throughout the previous 12 months.
MIL Christmas Card: Inside she wrote:
“Acquired a giant blanket, $112.40 Xfinity invoice paid! $584.89 on electrical invoice! $697.29 + present. Merry Christmas.”
Nothing says Completely happy Holidays fairly like a passive-aggressive message inside a Christmas card.
The daughter-in-law shared the message on her social media, explaining that her “poisonous” mother-in-law pulls this kind of stuff usually. The daughter-in-law defined that her mother-in-law did assist them all year long with payments after the daughter-in-law misplaced her job. Nonetheless, it was “identical to her” to remind them that she stepped as much as assist.
“In order that was actually superb however she chooses to ship a card, mainly reminding, ‘Hey you don’t get a present as a result of I’ve finished all these different issues.’ When she actually may simply, I don’t know, not give us one or simply want us a Merry Christmas.”
The daughter-in-law additionally harassed that she didn’t anticipate a present however definitely didn’t anticipate an itemised checklist as to why she wouldn’t be getting one.
That’s not a Christmas Card, that’s an bill
The mom additionally despatched one other Christmas card and present to her different son. His “present” was that she paid for his hospital invoice earlier within the 12 months.
After all, this is just one aspect of the story. Maybe the MIL was sick of her grown-up children demanding and anticipating her to pay their payments so determined to do one thing about it. It might be that the grown-up kids have been utilizing her as an ATM for too lengthy and he or she was sick of it.
Regardless of the motive, the daughter-in-law confirmed that they’d not be asking their MIL for any extra monetary assist. The video has additionally since been deleted. So I suppose it’s a contented ending for the MIL who will get to maintain her money and Christmas present stash.
