[quote=Anonymous]This is how FIL became an ahole... MIL kept the peace and shut the kids up to have everything FILs way. They still follow the same pattern, and she has been gone for over 2 decades. FIL is also prone to tantrums, and loves to go on that he is just a boy! So, I advocate that all the adult kids stop pussy footing to their parents. DH doesn't do it, but I have called out FIL and my own mom out so many times. I don't care if there is no peace for a few days. Here is what I would do. "Dad, you don't get to have a tantrum after keeping everyone waiting for an hour and your grand kid hungry. You do not get to act like I am wrong for calling you out. You put your phone ahead of all of us." This is how you break the cycle.[/quote]
