[quote=Anonymous]My DH did not realize how much his parents affected me, even when I would cry with anticipatory anxiety at the holidays and we would inevitably end up fighting with each other when his family came to town. So I finally looked him square in the eyes one night told him that if I had better understood who his parents were, I would not have married him. I also said that his parents may yet be a deal breaker. I wasn’t threatening, just speaking the truth. He sets MUCH better boundaries with his family now. I also said that children were off the table until he stood up to his parents. Having grown up with some family crazy, I refuse to pass the angst on to another generation.[/quote]
