[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has anyone had others join their relatives in making you a scapegoat? When my sister in law married my brother, she started agreeing with everything he said about me. [/quote] More or less. My brother can do no wrong, which has always been the case. His wife, by extension, can also do no wrong. My mom in particular is very quick to criticize me, my husband's family, and her own SIL. She has never, ever said anything about my SIL, SIL's family, or my brother even when they've made very questionable financial or parenting decisions and she'll defend all of their actions until the day she dies. My grandmother was the same way with her own son, and I can see where my mom learned it. We have two daughters and one son, and DH and I have vowed not to repeat the cycle. [/quote]
