Narcissistic MIL

So I’ve always thought that my son looks like a blend of my husband and I, but my MIL always says that he looks like my husband. I usually just zen out and treat her words like water off a duck’s back.

Last evening we had a family dinner and there was a friendly middle age waitstaff that was fawning over our son, and when she saw me she said he looks just like me (in front of my MIL).

My MIL butted in to say he looks like his dad. The waitstaff repeated herself and said our son looks like his mum.

Then my MIL continued on to say “He looks like his grandmother!” (Referring to herself)

No words. No one was talking about her?!
