[quote=Anonymous] OP, one of my friends DH employed her SIL for ten. long. years. The SIL took advantage in every way, and was barely qualified for the job. But the friends DH took pity on her when SIL first had children and was moping, whining and pouting like a child about her own job as well as her own husbands lack of promotion. It became a nightmare quick. Unmarried coworkers did not understand her unprofessionalism, yet they would not employ their own family! FF to when the company developed, and the new company said she had to go. My friend took the fall because it was just too messy. The friends DH had always been the smart, independent and hardworking member of the family, an easy target for bully family members (who of course would never admit to their awful history of behaviors). Somehow, even though he paid his mother back (with interest, can you imagine!?) for his undergrad - the family still, and will probably always somehow feel, he "owes" them. Sometimes family has the most seething jealousy! No one owes their ILs anything. Especially nasty, sneaky, jealous, seething, bitter, vengeful ILS. Never again, my friend has said. Bending over backward was never enough for that family. And unreasonable favoritism toward that sister never subsided by the rest of that family. You can't do enough for some people. [/quote]
