Crisis - MIL has joined FB

Ciarrai

Save me!!!  I cannot stand my MIL at all.  Many of you know the history, but I'll leave it at she hates me and is very obvious about her opinion.  Anyway, she has joined FB.  She hasn't tried to friend me yet, but I know she will.  She was talking about it over Christmas because she felt like she was missing things because she wasn't on FB and we are and SIL is.  I've blocked her for now, but she's going to ask SIL and Brent why she can't see me or see the pics or whatever.  I need her blocked.  I cannot deal with her on FB.  If nothing else, she throws a hissy fit and a half whenever we do anything with my family, ever and flips out every time she sees pics of them.  Beyond that, I have a lot of clients as friends and she tends to make obnoxious comments to me as often as possible (at least she has on my blog).  Can I just leave her blocked and tell her I have no clue what's the matter with FB?  Any other ideas?

Side note: If I block her, can she still see the pics of the kids if I tag DH in them and she's friends with DH. Or can I somehow block her seeing anything (like my status) I don't want her to see?   Maybe I can play it off as my FB is for my business and she'll see everything on DH's?

Yes, you can block so that she doesn't see any pictures you post. Just make sure your photos are set as only friends can see them, not friends of friends.

If you block someone then it is like you don;t exist.  If you write on your DH's wall...she won't be able to see it.  If someone comments on your comment then she can see their comment but not yours.

If you did friend her, there is some way to set up filters so that certain people can't see status updates.
