BD's mom

20thirteen

You all know how infuriating she is. I'm sure it's annoying how often I complain about her. But, ugh, this woman is driving me insane. She takes my pictures of DD as her profile picture ALL THE TIME. The other day, she shared a picture collage of DD that I posted. BD is blocked on FB but I don't know if he can see something that is shared. Regardless, what the FUCK is her problem? I've been trying to make it impossible for anyone to share my posts, but apparently Facebook doesn't have that feature anymore. I hate her. I hate her so much. I debate deactivating Facebook just so that I don't have to deal with her. But if I do that, I'll get bombarded with email and text messages and any picture I would send her, she would post on Facebook anyway, so what's the point? I really do try to not let this get to me but sometimes she just gets under my skin.

Sorry, I woke up in a bad mood today. /rant

You can block her in a way that she never sees any of your posts.  I'm not sure how this works with pictures but it can be done.  I blocked DD's aunt before I finally just unfriended her.  

Maybe you should put a copyright thing on all your pics.  Then get in her shit for stealing them. You do own the rights.

I've been restricting lots of things because I'm sick of her commenting on EVERYTHING I post. Sometimes, she comments things she "liked" that basically is that she found the post funny but the comment has no substance. It's like "I get it, you like the post. Why comment?"

I do, but I can't block her from all of them. Because then I'll get emails and texts for pictures because "grandma is having withdrawal". I'm not looking forward to her visit in April. She hasn't told me when exactly they'll be in town, so I'm trying to brace myself for whenever that is. But I'm least looking forward to the conversation I'm going to have to have with her regarding her drinking. I don't want people drinking/getting drunk around DD. My first encounter with BD's mom... It was Easter and she got way super drunk. So drunk, her husband got very angry with her and poured out her alcohol and they fought because she couldn't believe he did that. Then he stormed out and didn't tell anyone where he was going. She cried for the first hour because they fought, and then because he poured out her alcohol. After that, she cried because she thought he left for good. He had gone out to the movies and watched 2 movies to calm down before returning. It was clear that this was how BD grew up. And I don't want DD growing up with that.

I have a hard time being mean to her because she sends us so much stuff and sometimes money. I think she feels guilty for her shitty son. Half the shit she sends I pretend to like even if I hate it because she takes it so god damn personally if I voice my real opinion. I have to make an effort to go out of my way to say thanks when she does send things.

My XMIL is Facebook inept but much more crazy. I send 1-2 pics a week to her sister (who I love) who then uploads them to walmart so they can be printed and XMIL can pick them up.

If it bothers you that much get off FB, or make a new profile that blocks Crazy lady

And this is why I don't have a Facebook. So much drama surrounds it.
I agree with pp, block her from most pics and only give her access to the ones that are not up close so you can't see it real well! And if she asks why you aren't posting as much tell her you are a super busy single mom!
