[quote=Anonymous]1. Have DH lay down boundaries around disrespect 2. Offer a non-apology that acknowledges her feelings “it was a tough time, it must have been hard not seeing your friends.” 3. Stand up to her and don’t back down but don’t take her histrionics seriously. If she accuses you of shutting down the schools, just laugh and say something like “yeah right, just like I control the weather. No rain tomorrow!” 4. If she keeps pressing on this subject, tell her (or DH tell her) that you will not engage any longer and change the topic. If she refuses, you can comment that she seems deregulated and unnaturally fixated on past events which are unchangable, you love her anyway, and offer to pay for therapy. Make you vet the therapist.[/quote]
