[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get the same type of behavior from myIL's. They are kind when they are with me, but some of their behavior makes me wonder.  They actually took a picture of all the siblings (we are the only ones married) and excluded me.  This kind of behavior is very hurtful.[/quote]

Mine did this too!  They arranged for a portrait session, and grouped the family in different ways (everyone, just the young cousins, etc.). Then they did one with just the blood relatives, so [b][i]the two of us (out of 12 in the group) who are mere spouses had to step out[/i][/b].  I love my in-laws, but that one "little" incident was eye-opening.  My parents would never have treated sons/daughters in-law like that, so it was a bit of a shock.[/quote]

Wow, PP, that's insensitive and would bother me too.  Seems unnecessary and needlessly unkind.  Sorry that happened.  I guess look at the bright side: you're not blood relatives of these people. [/quote]

I think that kind of behavior is rather common, particularly with photos of family at weddings. [/quote]

Ironically, at a wedding, it's done in case people divorce![/quote]
