[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the PP who was torn between ignoring and the direct approach based on the rest of the family and how much attention they give his nonsense. Here's another thought I had - for those advocating the direct approach - is it really the OP's battle to fight? As mentioned I can't stand my in-laws - but fortunately, they are ABSOLUTELY 100% DH's problem to deal with. I have sisters in law whose husbands are not as good at dealing with their parents, and so everyone festers in silence. OP, it sounds like your DH isn't willing enough to be direct with his family when it comes to correcting issues. You and your children are his number 1 and when your FIL is being hurtful (which I think we all agree he is, whether he realizes it or not), your DH should be stepping in.[/quote] +1 If it was my father, my problem. If it's DH's father, he needs to deal with this (and by deal with it I don't mean shrug it off or give it a weak laugh).[/quote]
