Ok so I have been with my husband for 3 years, we have an 18 month old daughter and a son on the way. Well ever since my mother in law moved in with us because no one else would take her, we have had issues with her trying to start a lot of drama. She spreads lies about me and tells our business to everyone. Most recently we asked her not to tell her family the sex of the baby as we wanted to do it in a fun way, and she went and told everyone anyways.
I can live with this, I know we are moving to a larger house in February, and she is not coming with us. I can deal with her cocerning myself for the time remaining, what I cant deal with is the things she does around my daughter. She has taught her to color on the tv, I walked into the living room and saw her spanking my daughter, (which Im not against spanking, but it should only be done by the parent in cases where other things don;’t work, and it shouldnt be used on babies.), She yells at her, and allows her 14 year old daughter to also yell at my daughter for no reason, and last night I caught her encouraging my baby to put her hand inside her birds cage, where there is bird mess, they never clean it, and also a bird who bites, and has drawn my blood before. The list goes on for days, she once even poured comet all over the floor then set my then 6 month old daughter next to it. I picked her up within seconds of it happening, but I don’t understand why she would do all this to a baby?
I feel bad keeping our daughter in our room constantly, but she isnt fit to be around her. I take her out swimming and to the park reguraly but, I have to take her with me even to the bathroom in my own home because Im terrified my MIL will do something to her. We have tried talking to her, others in our family have too, I dont know what to do. What are my options until february when we move into a different house without her?
I would love to kick her out, but since she is an adult, when I signed this lease I had to put her as an occupant, Now I am under the understanding I have to tough it out or have her legally evicted.
My husband knows, and he tries talking to her, he is joining the airforce to get us out of this situation. He will leave after he moves us into a new home in February, I just dont know what to do until then.
