[quote=Anonymous]I need to get this off my chest. They all suck. DH's Dad died last year, and they were born of the "pick yourself up by the bootstrap" kind of conservatives and would say offensive, racially charged epithets that I will not repeat here. He was at my house once and made a racist joke with his Trump-loving brother-in-law, and I told them I do not tolerate any racist or offensive behavior in my home, and it made them feel uncomfortable around me ever since.

I married DH at 26, after meeting him at 24 and not spending much time with his family. I am now stuck with them for the rest of my life.

My BIL called my husband yesterday. He's a raging alcoholic and was drinking two beers on the road. He drank a six-pack before noon. My other BIL is also a drunk, heavy marijuana smoker, and gambled away 20K of my SIL's money that was meant to go to a home improvement project. My SIL is POA for my MIL, and she won't disclose to my husband about the state of my MIL's finances. I once saw MIL's bank statements after seeing charges for pizza joints, gas stations, and cash withdrawals (MIL does not like pizza or driving and lives in a nursing home), and I questioned their spending of finances. MIL's sister is getting involved to become POA, but everyone is hush-hush about it and afraid to confront SIL because she dissolves into a mess every time anyone questions her.

My SIL does not drive on the highway. My MIL/FIL never left the country, didn't have passports, and didn't read or watch the news. No one went to college. They believe Canada has a presidential system. I rarely see them, except on Thanksgiving and Christmas, and even then, it's brief and tight-lipped.

I'm just looking for commiseration if anyone else has terrible in-laws. [/quote]
