Re: what to do in this situation then

Some people use this as a manipulation tactic–do all the chores and then complain to 1. make themselves look good (like the martyr they are) and 2. make the other person look bad (like a lazy person who cannot do anything).

That could hold true for a SIL but not a MIL. She’s the MIL, boss of the house, don’t think she needs to make herself look good in front of anyone.

And nadz, wait it out. Give it some time. It’s not only you going through the change, it’s your MIL too. She’s always been the top dog in the kitchen, she probably feels threatened and it will take time for her to concede any territory.
