How to handle boundaries with Narcissist in laws living with you
Family & Caregivers / by beta818

...See more My in laws(father, mother, sister) live with us. They consider their son is still 5 year old who needs to taught everything and considers me (his wife) is incapable and incompetent, keeps pushing me around. They consider themselves as head of house and we need to ask their permission to do anything (cooking, going out etc). We were letting it slide until we had a child. Now they want to be involved in every little to big thing we do. They throw a tantrum if we don’t listen to them, wouldn’t allow us any privacy. We cannot have a private conversation even in our own bedroom without being questioned later. If reply to their questions or taunts we are considered disrespectful and rude, if we don’t respond we are considered arrogant and proud. If we try to set boundaries we become selfish and self centered. No they cannot move out as they don’t have any financial support.
