[quote=Anonymous]IMO just stay out of it. I’ve been married to my DH for 21 years and his relationship with his parents has been pretty terrible the whole time. Sometimes they are not speaking at all, sometimes they are distant but on speaking terms, occasionally they are getting along well. It is crazy. I learned to just stay out of it & keep them at arm’s length from myself (and from the kids, as far as I have to do with it). The “getting along” periods never last. Women do get blamed for things like this from outsiders, but it isn’t me. I stopped caring about that. TBH I see my DH as more of the issue in their particular situation (he is holding a grudge over things that- while understandable he would be upset- happened long ago) & behaves very childishly towards them. I’ve not said so directly but have tried to play “mediator/voice of reason” to him and it has not gone well. Anyway, just stay out of it. [/quote]
