[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like you are also feeling like you’re “right.” So, I’m not sure you should punish her for that. That seems a bit unfair. You’re also responsible for keeping your kids from having a relationship with her, so you can’t put 100% of the blame on her.

Your DH gave her an ultimatum and she didn’t agree with it. Instead of blaming her, it might help to have some compassion instead amping up your anger, which will make it harder to reconcile.

Where are you getting that this was the wife’s decision. She clearly said her husband drew the boundary after years of darvo abuse.[/quote]

Because OP is on here saying her MIL is wrong, thus she and DH are right.

She doesn’t seem sad, as she said it’s been easier, so she seems difficult by even posting this.

I’m estranged from a sibling. I don’t wonder about how wrong they are or why they don’t see my kids. I think about the good times we shared that I’m thankful for and extend compassion towards them. I accept reality and don’t make drama by talking ill of him and posting on message boards, which would prolong my own suffering. Especially if I put all the blame on him. If you’re sad, be sad — or don’t be.

Quote where she said the woman was wrong. I’ll wait. [/quote]

“From the outside, it feels like she’s choosing being “right” (or being the victim)” ERGO she’s making the wrong choice.

IDK why this needs to be explained.

You and OP needing a lot of validation. [/quote]
Cool! Well, either way, OP is free of this woman, and the woman is free of her (and her son and only grandchildren.) It’s a win all around! Have a good one! [/quote]

LOL. [/quote]
