[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you care if they ignore you? Do you care if you even have a relationship with them? It's one thing to have a "meh" relationship, but what if they are jerks to you? How do you handle it? I usually ignore it in person and then tell my partner about whatever ridiculous behavior happened afterwards... Though I am tempted to give them some of their own medicine now and then!

I was at a funeral when our son was 1.5 yrs old. We were at the cemetery and my husband told me to sit in one of the chairs so I didn't have to hold him. Most chairs were empty since people had to sit at the long church ceremony.  This was my mil funeral btw.  His two sisters told me to get up after he left to talk to someone. I was beyond shocked and ignored them. Finally they quit when I wouldn't look their way.

I don't have anything to do with most of them, kept my children away and it's worked out great. Would not want my kids around their sickness. My husband goes and visits them on occasion and sometimes I do have to see them at an obligation event,  we are now all cordial.

Oh and thankfully back then when call forwarding came around I jumped on the band wagon. I would forward their calls to a number I knew at a large company that would just ring!  Worked great, kept them from disturbing our "family" time.[/quote]
