[quote=Anonymous][quote]As a previous poster said, you have one life. You can choose to try counseling and see if this gets better, leave or put up with it. I would try counseling. If it doesn’t work, that leaves two choices. Your dh is correct, he can’t control his family. So, you control what you can and work on your marriage. Make your decisions from there. The family is not going to change and people can live a LONG time.[/quote] agree that DH can't control his (birth) family, But he can control his own actions. He can tel his mom "we have to get going, its a work night" he can tell his sister that her comments are inappropriate and hurtful; he can plan a vacation with his wife without his family going along. I would give it a try in counseling but at this point I don't see the situation changing because he doesn't want it to change. And if you have kids, it gets worse because he will be incredibly attached to recreating/holding onto his family of origin's dynamic even more and its unlikely he will be able to establish boundaries.
