My in laws started our marriage off right. I got told that I was way too young to get married. My FIL got drunk at our wedding. When I was pregnant with our first so was upset, now we were stuck in the marriage. They ended up getting divorced and remarried. The fil thought it was fun to smoke his cigar right in my face. I couldn't breath and one time thought I should have been taken to the hospital. I spent an hour in our car in the middle of the winter. That was the last straw. My kids never knew them and I would not force them to go when my dh went. My mil I really tried to keep things up but there was so many nasty snide remarks made to me. The final straw was her treatment of my son. He had grown up by then but after saying right to his face (after he had spent his own money to go see her and help her move) that he was fat and lazy. When she last came to our house she started in on my about him. She has not come to our house since. I also do not answer the phone when she call. If my dh isn't home it goes to voice mail. I think she is quite happy just talking to my dh and not me. My dh will not stand up to her but will not make me have anything to do with her. The kids don't either.
