[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You're creating drama out of nowhere. This sort of behavior is not "cut off" worthy and the behavior you're talking about isn't cutting anyone off but yourself. Better communication is called for. [/quote] This. You're invoking the nuclear option for no good reason. Every time I disagree with a family member, even about something important, it does not mean I should cut them off. Yes, your SIL is wrong to suggest that you are responsible for your ex's abusive behavior. But cutting someone off should require a higher threshold--her blaming you might hurt your feelings or upset you, but that's all. These people are your daughter's aunts and uncles and cousins and grandparents--you don't have to be all buddy-buddy with them, but things are going to be a lot easier if you maintain a positive relationship with them. Just tell her you don't want to discuss your ex or your relationship with him with her any more, and move on. [/quote]
