When young and in that situation in those days young married girls didn't know how to deal with women like this MIL. Then too, it would have been futile to do so anyway.

Good afternoon

This could go in several different directions. Don will have to be the one to set her straight, that is if he is willing to do such a thing.

I just don't see how this marriage can work unless the couple moves a few states away.  I'm sure the husband knows what his mother is like and he should consider his wife's feelings.  He should lay down the law and make his mother know her boundaries when it comes to their marriage.  I'm sure he will not though and this will end very badly.

AS I have often stressed get to know your future relations, before jumping over the broom twice.
