Honeypie agony auntI would go find your Father in law when he is alone and explain the matter from your point of view. If he will not listen then I don't know what to advice.

And I also think you need to talk to your husband. Ask him WHY he didn't stand up for you.

CindyCares agony aunt I think , that, if you come from a culture / family where it's acceptable/normal for a man to scold her daughter in law in front of other people, in fact in front of her own husband, - then it's also normal that your husband might have seen challenging his father's authority as disrespectful and inappropriate.

Yes , it would be nice to have a partner that takes your side under any circumstances, but, poor husband, next time try not to put him between a rock and a hard place , it must be awkward for him to officially take sides. You are an adult and you can fight your own battles. If something similar recurs, you just have to say " When you are ready to listen to my version of the facts and my side of the story, let me know. Before that, I am not interested in discussing this and for me this conversation is over "- and leave.
