[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP sounds incredibly hostile and rude for such small matters.

FIL is a horrible man. PERIOD. FIL to avoid conflict with his wife decides he doesn't want a relationship with his own child for all his life. Oh - even after the man's mother dies.

OP keeps saying DH is a softie - like that's a bad thing and repeats it with venom. Her DH is doing nothing but trying to have a relationship with his brother. Trying to get to know him better. This has been a 3 year process. It's not like the man just showed up on the door dropping dirty napkins.

It's less than a week - and yes some people are dirtier than others, some men rely heavily on their wives in life to manage even the smallest of things. But this particular husband is a recovering! alcoholic - went to rehab, trying to clean himself up - and apparently he's trusted enough to be alone with their child.

Honestly - I find it all sad that OP is just stomping all over the place and obviously detests this man and the "shrieking" 2 year old. Calling him names like Dingbat, etc.

You're horrible OP - not because you want guests to clean up after themselves - you can have a honest talk with your BIL - and YES he is your BIL because your DH has welcomed into your family. You're parsing words like half-brother and DH's brother - you are simply mean and nasty. I hope you are never in a situation wherein you need the kindness and support of others or someone simply to extend you some grace.[/quote]

Totally agree - this poor man.  He just wants to connect with his bio family. His father is a deadbeat and his brother seems like a decent sort but is married to an absolute horror show of a wife.  Hopefully the bro will divorce OP and be rid of this insanity!

(It is customary for a host to clean up after guests.  I would not bat an eye if a dinner guest left a napkin on a plate.  OP is reacting like he wiped his butt with toilet paper and left it on a plate!  Seriously, even if I ha d a guest who forgot to flush, I wouldn’t hang on the guest room door and tell him to come down and flush!  OP is a raging, nasty lunatic.)[/quote]

Agree with OP that dirty napkins are gross. I would have told this guy off too. I host on Airbnb and have reprimanded some guests for leaving their dishes around. [/quote]
