[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am super close with my sister. Forever I have ignored my brother-in-law's terrible behavior toward other family members, like my parents, and basically everyone he encounters. He's just a rude, dysfunctional person. Now he has turned on me and my husband, treating us like crap, not talking to us, making my sister nervous to visit with us. My sister's kids are greatly affected by their father's behavior - because he treats my sister so crappy, basically the kids do too and they are emotional wrecks. I have just been ignoring all this going on for past few months and continuing my relationship with my sister. Trying to just provide her as much support as possible. But now I am just frustrated with her situation and would like her to stand up for herself. I assume it's a lost cause so I am not inclined to say anything, but I am super sad to see our relationship fade away. I just can't put any more time into pretending everything is alright. Would you say anything to her? Or just let it play out for them and spend less time with her on the phone? I rarely see her because he doesn't like us now. My own teenagers are super upset about it because they are old enough to tell my sister doesn't come around anymore and we don't go over there. Any suggestions for how to address it with my own teens?  [/quote]

Why do you to fade your sister just bc you dislike her spouse? That seems very self-centered.[/quote]
