[quote=Anonymous]My in-laws have cut me off. There was huge drama between my husband and me the day after my dad died, resulting in my husband not being welcomed at my dad's funeral. (This was my mom's decision. I had no say in the matter, but supported her decision to have whomever she wanted at her husband of 51 years funeral). Since hearing of it, my in-laws refuse to have anything to do with me. They have a long history of cutting people out of their lives - both sides of their families are completely estranged. My FIL litigated himself out of his family when there was a dispute over who got what stock upon his dad's death, so this goes way back. And my MIL has cut herself off from her entire family, mostly because they're weird in all honesty. One nephew supports himself by suing businesses for any and all grievances, and they just settle, but that's how he lives. It's kind of bizarre. It's been a few months, and I actually kind of miss talking to them, but given their history I just don't have the energy to try to dig my way back into their lives. I don't in any way restrict our daughter's access to them, but they live far out of town and so it's not really an issue. [/quote]
