Steamroller MIL Shows Off Home WAAY Too Often ( 18:17:11 ThuMar 31 2005 ) Interact Quote Report To Canuck Wizard Last Posts Ignore Canuck Global Ignore Whisper DEAR ABBY: My husband, "Jon," and I are newlyweds. We bought and restored a house. Jon did most of the work himself. My mother-in-law, "Marjorie," who is understandably proud of her son, has taken to showing off our house -- but here's the hitch. She gives no warning beforehand; she just shows up on the front steps with people I've never met. (The first time Marjorie did it was the day Jon and I were leaving for our honeymoon.) Abby, Marjorie parades these people into our kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, even our closets! If I ask her to please skip our office because it's a mess, she says, "Oh, just give them a look," and barges right in. I have telephoned and asked her politely to please give me a little warning before bringing people to tour the house. Still, she shows up expecting to be let in with yet another stranger in tow. The last time it happened, after a cue from me, Marjorie acknowledged that she knows I don't like when she does it, yet she continues. Jon is so nonconfrontational, he's no help controlling her. What can I do? -- VIOLATED AND ANGRY DEAR VIOLATED AND ANGRY: Your mother-in-law continues to do this because your feelings are not important to her. The next time it happens, refuse to open the door to admit her. --- Since I've Been Loving You I'm About To Lose My Worried Mind

Gee, what is this with you guys? Okay, if I was her, I would just keep the doors locked - and not let 'Marjorie' in. Hopefully, she would get the message. --- Canada rules!
