Today, my mother in law accidentally cc'd me on an email she was sending to my husband, telling him that his youth is fleeting and that he should leave me while he still has time. FML

I doubt that was an accident. I think she did it deliberately while claiming ignorance.

i doubt that was accidentally cc'd. you have to consciously put in a second address. she is just a mean individual and deserves to never be spoken to again by her son.

No, you don't have to. Often, people, for some reason it seems more often old people, find it easier to reply to an email they got from a person than to start typing the person's name or address and let autocomplete take care of the rest. If OP was CCed on the email used to reply to, she would've been added as a CC.

That should make holidays even more uncomfortable.

Yea I dont see how that could be an accident...

Send your husband an email cc her on it with a list of nursing homes . Write that youth is indeed fleeting and dear old mom isn't getting any younger. Better to choose one now. Or you could write her an email telling her how stupid she is for trying to come between a husband and wife and let her know it is time to cut the cord.

Yeah, "accidentally". I wonder why we hear in-laws pulling stunts like this the most and not anyone else.

"accidentally" pretty messed up though.

You don't accidentally CC someone...reply all happens by accident, but CC is deliberate.

I'm not feeling the accidentally part.
