[quote=Anonymous]Your parents reneged on the house deal and your mother provided an explanation that was insulting to your SIL. Your brother's statement implies that your mother insulted your SIL before.

When your brother and SIL wrote the check to your parents, they may not have expected your parents to actually cash it. If so, they shouldn't have written the check in the first place.

I think your brother is right and wrong. It's understandable that he's upset about the house and treatment of his wife. I can understand him limiting contact, setting boundaries, and of course never having any future financial entanglements.

What I cannot understand is going permanent no contact with your parents and you, particularly when it comes to his child. I don't know why he doesn't permit an occasional FaceTime with the kid, Christmas cards, whatever. Life is short. So his approach is extreme and one that he might regret when your parents pass. But obviously we don't know his side.
