[quote=Anonymous]2 brothers married me and SIL. I divorced brother 1, then a few years later SIL divorced brother 2.

So me and SIL are not actually related but occasionally get kids together and talk. My kids are older and entertain hers for a few hours when they come but aren't really close or anything. Brothers come from a highly dysfunctional family including abuse extremes like incest and each of our marriages were plagued with volatile abuse, aggression & assault.

The brothers mother was the worst, my kids stopped seeing her/any of the rest of that family when we were still married. We didnt see brother 2 and SIL much when I was still married, more after when she was leaving and wanted advice and support.

So flash forward and SIL knowing everything about this family still let's them around her children. This disturbs me so much and I care about her kids but they are starting to do things that are alarming and red flags never mind the danger they are in.

I also just can't reconcile staying involved with SIL. But she keeps asking. I'm unsure do I say the reason - uncomfortable with her parenting decisions (?), continue slow fading, idk. It's a long story but seems values are my biggest issue and I believe kids should be protected from abuse. WWYD?[/quote]
