[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm going to go with the advice here which I guess i knew all along and tell him no repeatedly. I don't know why I posted all this, I apologize. I guess I'm trying to blow off some steam. It's really been getting to me. [/quote] It's okay. It's scary to think someone will just show up on your doorstep with a car loaded with boxes and say "hi, roomie!" and it's scary to think of slamming your door in your fathers face. [/quote] Yes, it is. But your dad, to cut to the chase, is basically a grifter. You do not need to enable him. I am sure this must be hard for you, but you and your DH are doing right by your children. Sounds like your ILs did right by your DH and your mom to you. That's where it starts. Everyone on this thread would like to be like your dad, but you don't get to do that when you're an adult.[/quote]
