Really really can't stand my MIL. She always disagrees with me and makes me look stupid in front of my own kids and husband. How do you stand yours?

Hello, This is the agony most women go through. I mean not getting along with their MIL. But, I think pinning you down and trying to make you look stupid in front of your kids is something that is a serious thing, because if kids look upto their grandmother then they perhaps would not respect you over the years. They can build an opinion that their mother is indeed foolish. I hope your husband is not a party to it! I think you must speak to your husband and tell him that if she doesn't like you and do not gel is fine, but she cannot look down upon you in front of the kids. Make him convey to his mother that she should behave in a decent manner with you as it doesn't matter who is elder or young, everyone deserves respect.
