[quote=Anonymous]My SIL who is a teacher has always been very cold.  Nothing has happened she is just one of those people who does not engage, speaks only to my BIL (husband's family) and prefers animals to people.  They do not have children by choice, they made the decision before they married.  She ignores my children (both under the age of 6) and often rolls her eyes if they get loud.  They often skip the kids birthday parties and give them one gift to share (they have lots of money).

We had a family dinner with in-laws (my children were there and at the table) and we were talking about grandparents day at school and I asked her if they had something similar at her school.  She said no and went on to say how she was glad that she worked with older kids so she didn't have to deal with that kind of "cutesy crap".  I said "like parties" and she said yes and went on to say how she couldn't stand little kids.  There was a few seconds of silence before my in-laws changed the subject.

I was just really angry, it seems like she was making a jab about kids, when my 2 kids were sitting right there.  I keep going back and forth about whether I should have said something.  We see them a few times a year for holidays and birthdays.
