Dear Duchess,
My name is Deborah, I just need some advice on how to go on with living with my mother-in-law, as I have done for 10 years.
She is the worst you can ever get. She will try her utmost to make trouble for my husband and I but he will never ever say anything or side with me because he says he doesn’t like people fighting and making trouble.
He is quite content living like this but I’m not sure how much longer I can handle this or put on a front
I think the only reason I’m doing it is because I have a seven-year-old daughter and she loves her father. I also love him and he is a good husband and father.
Living with my mother-in-law makes us fight about stupid things or makes me moody when I get home from work. We cannot move because the house is intended for my husband to inherit and he says that he can’t leave her there on her own.
Please advise as I don’t want to break my marriage up just because of my mother-in-law.
