MIL Issue Rant

Hi Community, just find that I need a place for rant and advise. So I’m staying with my MIL and even when we have our own BTO in 2025 she will still be staying with us as my husband is the only child. These are some of the details of her that piss me off - She smokes in the house, although she smokes in the common toilet which I don’t use but the smokes still travel around the house. Yes even when I am pregnant right now there is no change to her habit. - She has a dog and is a possessive dog owner. If the dog doesn’t eat for just one meal she will just keep coaxing the dog with her way. By her way means it can be so extreme like hand feeding the dog kibbles by kibbles. This will usually take 15-30mins. - She feeds the dog to drink water with a syringe🤦🏻‍♀️ Yes, she chase the dog around the house to feed him water. With the above situation, she still offered to take care of our baby next time when I am back to work. I mean…. with her smoking, it’s enough to say no to it. My baby will be exposed to the nicotine on her clothes and breath. She can’t even settle a dog and still wanna offer her help to take care of my baby. Oh god, I’m just wondering if there is any chance or way to prevent her from moving to the new place with us next time😢 My main concern is still her smoking in the house, it’s HER house right now so I have no rights to say anything. But even with my own place next time, I’m sure she is not gonna quit smoking either. Sigh
