[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your post is kind of confusing , but it sounds like your SIL has consistently been the primary caregiver for your in-laws (even when she herself had young kids and your husband was single) but now that you also have kids you are upset that your husband is being asked to help care for his parents?[/quote]

I don’t think he should be demanded to leave when we have zero support. They aren’t the only ones with a need for support. They took the support from us and just keep demanding. [/quote]

It’s not your SIL’s fault that you don’t have family support on your side nor is it an acceptable reason for your DH to foist all parental care on her. From the time described your child is no longer a newborn and you need to stop expecting everyone to cater to you. You definitely sound like the selfish one.[/quote]

Wow - what harsh and horrible people on this board. I guess that no one gives a crap when someone else has needs. Our need is to be respected to Ben’s family. She has stonewalled and ignored us during a time of need. She isn’t the only one with problems. [/quote]

You literally claimed that you told your SIL that you while you felt bad about her needs (for help caring for your in-laws) your family came first….so you’re not really one to talk.[/quote]

Thanks everyone for making me cry. It’s sick how women jump on women and we expect nothing of our in-laws. I don’t have parents to rely on (abuse) or relatives. I just don’t want her to dump her crap on us and have mutual respect for our needs. [/quote]

It’s not her crap, it’s THEIR parents. And you knew what the situation was before marriage and baby.[/quote]
