[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PPs - thanks for the advice. Like 09:22, I'm trying to understand where DH fits in here. Is this going to be just me or is it "us" - should it be? And for those of who who say you haven't had to deal with ILs since, so they never try to come for holidays, birthdays, anything? My problem is that they come and stay with us for several weeks at a time. Those extended stays cause serious friction. I think she feels better after one of her episodes, but DH and I are miserable afterwards. [/quote] Your husband absolutely has to be on board. The two of you can decide whether it makes the most sense for you or him to actually confront them (generally, I think the child of the parents in question should be taking the lead, but there may be special circumstances), but he should be there and clearly supportive. Your in-laws need to know that you guys are a team on this. [/quote]
