[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 226075"] Maybe there is good reason why I'm single. Because, if it were me and they said they didn't like [I]me[/I] then they wouldn't be coming into [I]my[/I] house. Family or not, I don't care. husband and the kids can visit at their place. As far as 'you all need to get through this'...well, [B]you[/B] have tried. And you have tried hard. They have not met you even a quarter of the way. I see what MB is saying about letting them see K's instability. However, I don't think it's at all fair to K just to prove a point to the in-laws. Especially not with the way this went down. It sounds like they have their minds made up and I wouldn't be surprised if they go to the psychiatrist just to tell them how 'horrible' you are. But, I'm a cynic. And I wholeheartedly agree with Smallworld. Stand your ground and make no excuses for how you parent K. Parenting K is not their job and unless you're abusing a child, you don't have to answer to anybody. Period. I honestly cannot believe anyone not liking you. You can tell them that I don't like them either. So there. [/QUOTE]
