[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What a psycho your SIL is, calling you up crying over a day trip. You need to have sane boundaries. The minute people pull this nonsense, you say, "I don't want to hear it. This is not my problem." And hang up. No more responses. Shut it down.[/quote] The people who always bring up boundaries are the biggest control freaks and don't understand how boundaries work. You can't control another person. The OP can't prevent her SIL from flaking on plans or calling her when she's in tears. The OP can only control her attitude toward the SIL or screen her calls. OP, in the future, tell the SIL in a nice way to make her own plans up front so that you're not inconvenienced. Yes, she's ridiculous. Better that than mean or nasty.[/quote]
