[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, while I would happily cut contact, DH is insistent that we can't. [b]DH feels he is in debt to MIL and FIL for paying for college and has made it clear that he will start divorce proceedings and take the kids should I press the issue. He thinks that going no contact would hurt DS14 and that we should be trying to improve DS15's relationship with his grandparents, not cutting it out. [/b][/quote] He is stark raving mad and is part of the problem. First, he shouldn't carry gratitude about paid education all his life and have it color all his actions. That's sick. In my family, we pay for college for the kids and don't expect them to grovel. Second, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree - he's manipulative and abusive and threatening. Talking about divorce? Excuse me? Are there other issues going on between you? Because that's not OK if it's in response to such egregious grandparent favoritism. Really, OP, I hope you can persuade him to visit a therapist and talk these things through, mainly how damaging it is to both of your children. BOTH. [/quote] +1 Seriously not uncommon AT ALL for UMC ppl to cover college costs. And even if it were....paying for DH’s college is something they did for your husband not sure how that obligates your DS to take their abuse. [/quote]
