[quote=Anonymous]This is like my SIL & brother. We all live in the same area. Her parents had major marital issues, and I think SIL believes the way to "correct the mistakes of her parents" is to have fixed, controlled boundaries, and keep their marriage rather... confined. It's sad. We're really close with our other in-laws, and enjoy spending time with each other (and *make* time to spend with each other), but SIL is really weird. She thinks when you get married, your old family ends, and your new one begins - instead of expanding and growing your family. Our brother never comes over or spends time with our kids, and we need advanced permission to spend time with him - even if she doesn't want to join in. I get that the issues of her parents are spilling over into the present, but it's sad all around. [/quote]
