No, she should respect you and your son's relationship and privacy. She is being extremely nosy and rude. If she doesn't trust her husband enough to even stay out of emails with his mother, then perhaps you need to let your son know that she is being suspicious and it is getting in the way of your relationship with him.
Or you can respond to her directly and tell her that you're displeased with her reading his emails since you are entitled to a private relationship with your son. Either way, what she is doing is not healthy. It is interfering with your communication with your son. It is creating a hostile environment. And to top it off, if they have kids, she could be teaching these bad habits to their children. |

Your son married her making them one now. If he has no issue with this, then you should not. Just do not type anything that displeases you DIL.

Hubby can read anything on my laptop anytime he likes & vise versa, we have nothing to hide so it's no biggie. |

What kind of secret things are you saying to your son that displeases her? It sounds like there is another side to this story.
If you know she reads his e-mails, stop sending things in them and talk to him in person. She IS his wife and depending on how you view it, she's really not doing anything wrong. |

If he doesn't care if she does it, then it's between them. Personally though, I'd consider it an invasion of privacy and rude...not to mention her replying to it presumptuous. |

If there is nothing to hide there should be no reason why she can't read your emails. However, she has no business responding to them. That's crossing the line. |

how do u know your son hasnt cheated on her in the past or given her a reason not to trust him? maybe there is a reason she goes in his email that you dont know about. |

If they are open about things, and they both know this happens, then it's none of YOUR business. If your son doesn't know, then she is WAY WRONG to do this and he needs to grow a pair and tell her to stop, but it's still none of YOUR business. Either way, don't put things you don't want her to read in an email if there's a chance she'll see it. |

Whether or not your daughter-in-law should read your son's e-mail depends on only one thing. Did your son give her permission? If so it's OK. If not, she shouldn't.
It really amounts to how THEY perceive the e-mail account, not how you do.
What are you sending that makes her upset? |

They may be like my daughter and my son-in-law. They have a close bond and are comfortable with their marriage, so they use only one email address. Makes sense to me! And, by the way, I know this; so, of course, I'm smart enough to NEVER write anything that would offend my son-in-law and make him want to respond back to me. I think you're the one who might need to wise up! |

While I don't think its up to her to reply to your emails, I don't think there is anything wrong with her reading them. I have access to my guy's emails but I don't care to read them and he doesn't care to read mine either.
If your emails concern her marriage to your son or her children or anything that is her business then I guess you can't blame her for putting her two cents in whether you like it or not. If her husband doesn't care then its not your business either.
Call instead. |

talk to your son about it, if he doesnot care that his wife is reading it, then stop sending e-mail to your son and just give him a call!!! |

If he wants to share everything with her, that is their deal and you have not part in that. Be annoyed all day long but at the end of the day, that is not your concern. When you email your son, compose your email as though you were addressing both of them. If you have something private you want to say to your son, take him out to lunch and talk. |

My husband and I share an email account. I don't care what he reads. I looked at your situation from both angles. First of all, I wouldn't respond to an email that isn't addressed to me, and I'm pretty sure he wouldn't either. 2nd of all, I would never send family an email that has anything negative about someone else in it, especially if it's my daughter in law. I'm assuming that you might have said something negative about her? That also can fall into the mind your own business category. |

Well, I was going to say no, but once you explained the situation, I'll say HELL no!
Wow, that's really rude. Quit sending your son emails and just call him. It drives me crazy when a woman marries a man and feels like he should no longer have any kind of private relationship with his parents. |

face the facts..shes your daughter in law,you will never like her,she is reading his mail,he knows it,you've told him,stop writing bad stuff about her,shes going to read it,he lets her use his mail,if he wants to change the problem its very easy to change emails...that should tell you he does not care..a wife and husband should be able to read each others mail...they shouldn't have anything to hide. |

Maybe she has some reason to doubt him that you do not know about. |

I read my husband's mail and email. Mainly because if I didn't, it would never get read. But I wouldn't respond to any of it without talking to him. I think that is sort of out of line. What are you writing to him that is upsetting her?
I think it is kinda not kosher that she responds to emails that aren't meant for her, but I wouldn't consider it a huge deal. If you know she reads them, either just deal with it or save the stuff you know will upset her for private phone conversations between you and your son. |

No. No way.
A woman has no business reading her husband's private email, unless he expressly invites her to do so. It is a gross invasion of privacy, and for her to respond to his private emails from other people is a despicable violation. I would be very worried for my son if I was you. She is completely smothering him.
However, sadly, this is not an issue you can do anything about. It is completely up to him to find a backbone and assert, very clearly, his right to privacy and his insistence upon being trusted and not checked upon like some naughty schoolboy. Furthermore, knowing that she reads his emails, you really need to factor her perusal of everything you write into the equation when considering what you are going to send. Don't provide her with anything contentious that would give her any reason to attempt to "justify" overseeing his personal correspondence.
I think what she is doing is truly awful. It is disrespectful to him and to every single person he keeps in touch with. I feel so very sorry for you and most especially for your son. |

I think that you need to mind your own business. What goes on in their marriage is their business. I do not see an issue with the wife reading her husband's email...my husband ASKS me to check his email becuase he hates to deal with it. We were in a situation where his parnets were having trouble letting go of their little boy and he was just sick and tierd of reading the imature emails...he asked me to check his email and we would talk about what was written and then sit together and decide what to write back and he would have me type. What goes on in their marriage is their chocie. If he chooses to have no issue with her reading his email then deal with it...even if he does not like her reading his email that is still THEIR business and NOT yours! |

Yes, she should mind her business. |

I don't think a wife should read her husbands email. It is private. Just like a wifes purse. I would not ever go in my wifes purse. |

No she shouldn't but alot of people do. My sister and her husband actually share the same email account. I also know two other married couples that are friends of mine that do the same thing. They don't care though. They have nothing to hide from each other. Tell your son to do a yahoo account or something and not tell his wife. He can log on to yahoo and check his mail from you if he doesn't want her reading your emails. Maybe he doesn't care either though. So if that is the case then maybe you should mind your own business or keep your emails in a format that speak to both of them. |

No, but if he gave her the password, he has only himself to blame. |

Oh hell no. That is so wrong. Tell her to stop and to leave his email the hell alone. |

In my opinion, emails are like regular letters through the mail, intended for who they are addressed to. I feel it's an invasion of your son's privacy. In the same manner, her purse and his wallet are private. |

I think this is the business of the 2 (two, no mils, sorry) in the marriage.
Marriage today is difficult enough without a mil causing trouble. You want to make this about her invading his privacy, but really, this is about you invading theirs. |
