[quote=Anonymous]It is hard. My sister in law is emotionally and verbally abusive towards my brother and at times her kids. She can also be a lovely person and no one outside the family would have a clue. Everyone just feels trapped in the dynamic and despite seeing the impact on my brother and the kids, there isn't much anyone can do. It is all complicated by the fact that they constantly try to get her approval / love and defend her if anyone says anything. It is the cycle that makes it so hard to break. My brother is a shadow of a person now, he just tries his best to protect the kids and keep her happy and get through each day but his spirit is broken and there is no fight in him to get out.
