[quote=Anonymous]I have a relative like that (parent's sibling who treats my parent in pretty much the same way). Living grandparent enables it, will not defend my parent. As you often find in families with addiction issues (deceased gp was an alcoholic), the primary caregivers will enable the addiction, and model pacifying the person who is the addict/abusive person. It is sick and dysfunctional and the most you can do is to not engage. After this craziness, I would refuse to go around the SIL. Your poor DH was taught to enable the craziness, supress his own feelings and dignity. Be patient, he has to learn to recognize that his family is dysfunctional. But you need to stand strong about not being around her, she sounds like she is 2 seconds from psychotic break.[/quote]
