[quote=Anonymous]Your brother was incredibly hurtful, OP. You should tell him to never talk to your wife and YOUR kids like that ever again. I know your wife provoked him, but she was addressing a specific situation, with a specific request. It did not warrant a generalized hate comment. The two are entirely different beasts. Your wife was annoying in the moment. Your brother was incredibly hateful, in a permanent way. Your wife has some hope of growing and maturing. Your brother does not. I strongly disagree with all the posters who think this is gotcha moment for your wife. I would NEVER respond like that to an annoying SIL, particularly not vis-a-vis kids. He crossed a line, and your job is to let him know that. (Now separately, I would be mad at your wife too, for failing to understand the dynamics of a blended family.) [/quote]
