[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mother forced my dad to have a relationship with his mother because she didn't feel he had good enough reason to cut off. There was no physical or sexual abuse and back then people didn't truly understand what emotional and verbal abuse was and how damaging it is. Anyway, my dad coped by staying out of the house when grandma visited and making grandma mom's problem.

Mom would explode with rage at grandma (her MIL) and grandma would try to drag us in complaining about mom and crying to us. I still feel sick to my stomach remembering what it was like as a little girl to see mom rage at grandma and then to have grandma try to manipulate us and have us take sides. Mom caused a lot of damage with her rigid ideas. Then she would explode at dad for not being around. If she had just respected his wishes and minded her own business she could have saved us all a lot of stress and upset.[/quote]

This is so sad.  I'm sorry that you - a child! - had to bear it.[/quote]
