[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does your husband plan to have a relationship with his half sibling?[/quote]

Not op, but really not the point or the time to think about this sort of thing.  The half sibling is a baby, and op's dh is quite literally old enough to be the child's father.  I would think this can be dealt with down the road.

Sorry, op.  These things can get ugly.  My dh essentially sided with his mom during their late-in-life divorce, and his brother went with the father.  MIL went off the rails in a similar manner to yours, but mine has the added fun of a personality disorder, so that was amusing.  My best advice is to take the high road as much as you can, don't share any unnecessary info with either party (ie, mom doesn't need to know if you ever meet up with dad for lunch), and perhaps try to get mil in to see a counselor/therapist so she stops dumping on her son.

My dh's relationship with his dad has improved, now that it's several years out from the actual divorce.  You're in the thick of it now - hopefully it will improve for you guys too.[/quote]
