[quote=Anonymous]I'd be very hurt by their coldness and distance, but I've learned that my MIL/FIL/SIL behavior towards me doesn't have the same impact on my DH. He doesn't expect me to go on as if things were the same, but he keeps being a good son to them, seemingly no matter what barbs they throw at me. It stings me, but I will not allow them to create conflict between me and my DH. My DH respects that I need fewer visits with them and also understands that I have reservations about our kids' relationship with ILs. They think time will heal wounds, but I have a wall up and pretending things didn't happen isn't going to change that. In your case, you did get an apology, but I have not received that even though DH told them that might help. Despite the apology, I totally understand your feelings - now you know where you stand with them, and anyone would have reservations about "family" that would not acknowledge your grief in some way.
