[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This seems pretty straightforward to me. OP’s DH shared the bad, frightening cancer news with his mom as almost anyone who grew up in a loving or semi-loving, functional family would, for the all the normal, healthy reasons one does in that scenario. This enables his mom to better support her child, DIL, grandkids, and OP’s mom.  OP wanted to control this information because she was not raised in a functional household and doesn’t seem to understand how “the village” works. Information can often be viewed as a weapon in that sort of childhood. From the follow up posts, it seems likely that OP, while decrying the behavior of her abusive dad, is trying to import dysfunctional ways of dealing with things into her own marriage in a pretty controlling way.  Trying to use HIPAA as a parallel and justification was really something else.

OP, I hope you get some real therapy and don’t rely on DCUM therapy. You are attacking the well-intentioned people in your family for no good reason and doing so at a time when you and your mom could use their support. [/quote]
