Grumpy MIL

Here's our next submission:

My MIL's a f@#%ing grumpy. And loves her son (my hubby) too much like a baby (it's like she's still nursing him). So everytime we have problem my hubby always tells it to his mom like a baby and i'm always the one to blame. Asshole!!!! Go to h@ll you f@#$ing MIL.
I think we have some unresolved anger here, no?

MIL asks for too much

From the comments:
i am a husband age 28, my wife age 25. both of us get a low pay as a government servant. my mother in law ask a her daughter(my wife) an expansive things that we cant afford. recently she ask my wife to buy a car for her. that reallly distrurbing my minds. Its affected me financially, mentally and emotionally. HELP ME!
Any thoughts for this poor young man?

This was my response:
you and your wife need to talk this over. if you can't afford what your mother-in-law is demanding, be honest and tell her that. is there a cultural or religious tradition that expects you to buy things for your mother-in-law? if so, you need to discuss together how you will break with that tradition. you must present a united front.
Any other ideas?
