[quote=Anonymous][quote]I feel like I have to choose dysfunctional misery with them or severely limited contact without them. [/quote] I'm sorry, OP, but you do have to choose. You can't control them, you can't change them. All you can do is choose how you will react. I know this is a painful choice (one that many of us have had to make) but I think you know what the right one is. If you are wavering, think about the model/message you want to provide to your DC. Is their behavior something that should be tolerated? Should you endure this kind of behavior in family but not in friends? I know this is years away for you but if her boyfriend were exhibting this behavior, would you want her to accept it just because she loves him?[/quote]
