[quote=Anonymous]I personally have experienced this and have felt extremely disrespected.  My spouse’s parents live close by and his sister sends texts asking him to go to a movie and not bring me so they can be alone.  His dad asks him to come play war games.  We have 3 kids my husband works all the time, he needs to prioritize the family he has created and not his parents who are grown adults.  It’s not appropriate for a parent to an adult with a wife and a children to ask them to leave their wife and kids to spend time with them.  That wife and those kids are their family now, they are their priority.  You don’t get to dictate that family or their time.  It’s extremely rude to control an adult and their family to that level.  I eventually realized my in-laws always ask my husband to come to their house so they can control the relationship and ask me to leave and not be apart of it.  I finally told my husband it makes me feel bad that his parents dislike me being around and this is supposed to be my family too.  If they were going to exclude me constantly and making me feel like I do I will be leaving this situation.  I totally get it.  It’s one thing if they are doing something that doesn’t interest you fine don’t come, but for them to demand your spouses time and specifically ask you not to be there it’s clearly trying to show their dominance over their son.  My husband is my best friend and if he wanted to go somewhere with me he’s always invited.  We are a packaged deal.  [/quote]
