[quote=Anonymous]You could be me, except my family dynamic also includes incest, which everyone has decided to sweep under the rug in the interest of "moving forward." They're not going to change. You know that. You might feel momentarily victorious finally telling them what you think, but they won't agree with you and will just get defensive at best and hostile at worst. Just do what you have to do. When they whine that they don't get to see you enough, say you're sorry but you're busy. When you do see them, make the visits short. I stopped spending any holidays with my family over 20 years ago. They got used to it. Now they don't even ask. And be glad you have ILs that are sane. I adore and am so grateful for mine. [/quote]
