[quote=Anonymous]As PPs have noted, family is the one you create. I handled it by finally learning to not care. Seriously. I stopped making an effort and stopped going to family events on his side. We tried counseling (because, at that point, it was a DH issue) and while their treatment of me is no longer rude, they still don't like me and it shows. So, I quit. Our kids are older now and I believe my ILs are regretting their behavior. Oh, they still don't like me but since I don't manage the calendar for their events/invitations, etc., my kids are closer to my side of the family. My ILs (even the extended ones) now realize that if my kids are going to know anything about their dad's side, I'm the one that would teach them and foster the relationships. It's just not DH's thing. They should have thought about that before they treated me like shit. Not caring is SO freeing![/quote]
