"YTA. She deals with it by talking to friends. You deal with it by being antisocial and withdrawing around your in-laws (at least part of the time). Do you really think your way of coping is more acceptable than hers? (Spoiler: you're wrong.) She is not taking it out on your family. She is not venting to you. This is reasonable behavior. Anyone's going to not be perfectly happy spending week(s) with their in-laws. Honestly this plan seems excessive, but you do you. Also: don't be a snoop."
