[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your SIL is at least harmless.  :D

Everybody has someone a bit odd in the family.  If she's not actively ruining your life, be grateful.  Be kind, and teach your kids to have compassion for people who are a bit touched.  [/quote]

WTF? Your advice is to IGNORE the problem? Judging from the OP's post, that's what they have been doing and it's only gotten worse. It will not get better on its own. When people IGNORE the problem, it eventually escalates and can become tragic. Sandy Hook Elementary. The CA rampage. The Fort Hood shooting. All MENTALLY ILL people.

There was a woman who drowned her children because "God" told her to or she thought they would be better off in "heaven." Mentally Ill. Her husband did not help her and frankly, he should have been charged with the children's murder as well. He DID NOTHING and his children were murdered. She was mentally ill, and isn't responsible for what she did (heinous as it was.) What is HIS excuse?[/quote]

PP here.  Sounds as if you watch WAY too much TV.  I corrected my mistake earlier in this thread.  And I stand by my statement regarding compassion, and gratitude if the SIL is not ruining OP's life.[/quote]
