[quote=Anonymous]He sounds really unpleasant to be around. Given the age of your kids, I wouldn't say anything to him about watching his comments when he's around them. And, I would keep my kids away from him, and avoid spending time together, both for your comfort and his. I'd probably try to accept that he's a jerk, or at least going through a jerky phase. If your kids were older, they'd notice this on their own and you'd want to keep some distance anyway. We don't have to like everybody, even if we're related. You can model good behavior/manners for your kids by being polite and not insulting him back, etc. His actions are really beyond your control. He did you a favor by being honest with you. Now you know that the distance you've felt isn't just in your head. Maybe when your kids are older you'll be close again. [/quote]
