i guess i'm kindof lucky, because even though i don't love my in-laws, they are quiet about their opinions. they are uber-crazy-religious, and tend to keep their warped and strange views to themselves. (my FIL thinks women wearing pants is obscene (?), and that drinking is the way of the devil...yeah.)
the only thing i've had a problem with is that my FIL wants to be at the hospital when the baby is born. i'm a naturally extremely private person, and can't stand the idea that someone will be waiting for me to deliver the baby. (with his other grandchild, there is a picture of him holding the baby WHILE the mother is still in stirrups, getting stitched. NO FREAKING WAY.) we've told him we'll call him when we are ready for visitors, but he can't understand, and is very upset about it, saying things like, "it's MY grandchild!" he doesn't understand that it's MY child, and he had his chance with his 4 boys. we've decided we just aren't telling him or MIL when i go into labor - we'll just call and say, "oh, by the way, jackson was born yesterday. do you want to come see him now?" heheheee.
ah, the joys of in-laws!!!
my parents live 2,000 miles away, so i don't have to deal with that, but i miss them terribly, and kinda wish they were here to annoy me!!
