[quote=Anonymous]I told my parents my family needed some space while we work through an issue. My parents then crossed a line instead of respecting boundaries, and basically tried to turn my in laws against me, dh, and our kids. At that point I was finished. I haven’t spoken to them since I told them we needed space. Having that conversation would only lead to excuses or possibly false apologies. If I have to explain why it’s offensive for them to tell my MIL she isn’t a Christian because she supports my LGBT son instead of trying to bully him into confirming to their ideal, I figure they’re a lost cause. (This was the straw that broke the camel’s back. There were years of abuse, toxic behavior, and mental health issues that we had dealt with in addition to the final episode.)

There’s just nowhere to go in a relationship with someone so opposed to our values. I’m not interested in drama, they know what they did, and I’m not looking for reconciliation. I have peace. My kids have support and love. The clean break was best for us. [/quote]
