[quote=Anonymous]Some people live in a land of delusion. My in-laws are the same. FIL is verbally abusive (to his wife, to his kids, and to his grandkids), MIL is an enabler of SIL's poor life choices, and my husband stays away from all of it and isn't close to his dad, his mom, or his sister. FIL acts like he's a beacon of morality and love and can't figure out what he ever did to make us not worship the ground he walks on (even though some of his abuse has been over text, so it's literally in black and white), MIL acts like her children are best friends and she's super close with her son (who tells me that it's a chore to have to interact with her because she never paid any attention to him growing up and never showed any interest in him until he had kids), SIL acts like we're snobby because we don't use her parents for money and free childcare like she does (although we have never said one word about it). They all live on their own planet where reality isn't a problem for them.[/quote]
