How can I give my mother in law a good lesson without harming my family?

soon my mother in law is going to come to have holidays around with her daughter and her grandson who are living with her,so that her grandson (my husbands nephew) can see his uncle,because he is not living with his father.She calls her grandson with my husband's name,she puts him into her son's place,she thinks she is his mother,and behaves so.She hates me,the last presents that she sent me were;it was supposed to be a pair of shoes,but right one was 36,left one was size 41.And another pair of shoes which were in a horrible situation .and 2 size above of my size.I didn't know what to do,I phones and thanked to her daughter for the things that her mother had sent.I don't know what to do,my 2 years old son needs to see his cousin,he is 3 years older tahn him.As well she is my husband's mother.Thanks for your interest.

Answer:
I'm not quite sure I get the problem, but you can't.

If you try to "give her a lesson" you'll just cause a lot of strife among all the relatives.

Ignore her gifts, be pleasant, ignore any rudeness from her.

You can't change her.

You can only deal with her in ways that make everything worse, or as pleasant as possible.

Slap her round the chops, a fgood backhander never hurt!!!!!!

Have you talk to your husband about this? She obviously doesn't respect you and she is coming into your home!It's up to your husband to talk to her and stick up for you or she will continue with this bad behaviour! She sounds like a control freak ! Tell your husband to do something about it or you will! I'm sure he would rather handle it himself than have the two of you get into it!! If he won't than sorry but he's a mommies boy!! OMG! She sounds weird!! LOL

your husband has every right as a son to demand better treatment for himself, after all, the monster you're describing is his mother, she did give birth to him, she must love him she has any maternal love in her. well, as for you, mothers hating their daughters-in-law is no new news for any society or any culture, i think that you and your husband should talk to her in private, in a very reasoning way, and make her understand what she did was wrong on all basis as a person, but most importantly as a mother.

Paxil. It will transform her into a pusscat and it is fearsomely addictive. A week of Paxil slipped into her orange juice and she is nice for life - or else God will be vindictively displeased.

Well if you really want to push it if the hubby doesn't support you and I'm feeling bit mischief influenced by Hollywood of course . You could say on a number of occasions because there would be loads of opportunities to say to the grandchildren, be quiet granny, grandma needs a rest be quiet, no the soft ice cream is for grandma, grandma doesn't your husbands nephew little johnny look like grandpa> Finally the finale when everyone is around the kitchen table you could be really bold and suggest that Grandma I think you need a change in prescription glasses you got me a pair of shoes one size 36 and the other 41 isn't that so funny everybody ! Naw that's really mean but I bet it feels good !
