[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] OP: you’re totally right. I’m ready. I just need the words to use. And I’m not sure how to respond when she says that I’m wrong if nuts/or just don’t like her. She yells at her husband too when she drinks. Should I say something to him first?[/quote] Your husband is the one who needs to have this conversation with his brother. Your DH: Brother, I'm sorry but we can't have you over anymore if SIL continues to drink in our home. It's disruptive (etc). I understand this must be very hard for you, but we have to draw this line in the sand going forward. We do hope you'll celebrate with us in the future, but only if SIL doesn't drink. Your DH must be on board for this to happen, and he needs to be the one to have the conversation.[/quote] This is the right answer.[/quote]
