[QUOTE="crazymama30, post: 215159, member: 3184"] I am sorry. I cannot handle my own mother in law, but she lives thousands of miles away. There is no way I could live in the same state, let alone the same city as her. Toto, some people will not accept mental illness. Period. My father in law is that way. He does not know husband is BiPolar (BP), and just thinks difficult child has ADHD. He thinks ADHD is a bunch of bunk, and that husband is just lazy. husband cannot work as he has chronic pain(father in law thinks he should just buck up. Some days he almost falls over trying to stand up after sitting on the couch) and that he is lazy(there are times when he just cannot function around others, so he stays home. Applying for disability). husband and I just keep our distance, Step mother in law and father in law have not had any consistent contact with our kids since the kids were toddlers. They only live 10miles away. I do not want them around my kids, especially difficult child, if they are not willing to understand his issues. I just have come to the conclusion that I will see them on special occasions only, and try to minimize that. They just stress me out too much. [/QUOTE]
