[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is actually between the BIL and the MIL.  Nobody else needs to take sides.

If the DH doesn't go then he is getting in the middle of other people's adult relationships, which usually makes things worse.

I guess DH doesn't have to go, this will only create more bad blood and eventually lead to relationships falling apart or being strained.  DH should let the people involved sort out their differences.

[b]This is how these families work though, one person walks around being endlessly rude and then the one time someone calls them out and is rude back everyone jumps on to shut them down. [/b] Dh needs to come to his mothers rescue rather than acknowledging that she is rude herself and not a victim.  Its so typical.

Yes name calling isn't productive but if you've ever been around someone who constantly pushes your buttons, sometimes you are just done with it.[/quote]

MIL is a b----.  She "needles" people by insulting them constantly, and when BIL finally snaps because she's been at them all weekend, she's suddenly the victim.

Also, your husband should stay out of it.  She's 80, but it sounds like she's been like this for years.  And you all enable it and treat her like a child, and lash out at the person who finally grows a pair and calls her out.  No, he shouldn't have lost her temper.  Yes, it's also her fault.  And your husband is willing to wreck his relationship with his sister over it?[/quote]

This is spot on.  [/quote]
