[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, I appreciate the fact that everyone is trying to help and offer advice with the limited background info that I have given here. A lot of the suggestions you have offered are ideal for some situations or in an ideal world which clearly I am not part of. We have a "don't ask don't tell" unspoken policy regarding our "family business" and with that said, I have never made up stories to make it look like my parents are happily married, the same way I have never offered to tell them they are not. My in-laws know that my mom runs businesses in a few towns and she is "usually" not in our family home (thanks God for women empowerment).

[b]Both of my parent's should be able to join the rest of the family if there is a function to welcome my inlaws because separated or not, they are both my living parents. If my mom is not there is just no point.

My brother's wife is getting involved because I had reached out to her for advice on how to handle the situation and to also help me with coordination because I needed someone who not only  knows the situation at home,  but also someone who can be a little impartial.

I am sure everyone who comes from a broken home always wishes things were different. God bless you who have a perfect family that has it all together, or feels no shame or worry about being judged by society

They "should" be able to?  What does that even mean?  Your father was so abusive to your mother that you and your siblings bought her a house three hours away that he doesn't know the location of, but your mother should just suck it up and spend time with your father so you can preserve the family front before your in-laws?  Nope.  You don't have to tell your in-laws every detail of your family's problems, but it's not okay to think that your mother has any obligation to spend time with your father.  [/quote]
