 Quote From: kamkms I know I'm not alone with the inlaw situation. My in-laws have always been very obsessed with my oldest son since he was born. My MIL calls the shot with everybody in the family, even her husband. We all know not to cross her. She is very controlling and deceiptful and often shows signs of a sociopathic personality. She always said when and where she would have my son, then one day I changed plans on her b/c I was invited to do something very fun with my boys (they were 3 and 5 at the time). I told her that I would drop them off in the afternoon instead of the morning. She was so angry with me and blasted me for changing plans on her. Her plans were to take them to the mall to see the Easter Bunny. Anyway, the next day a girl from DSS came to my door accusing my husband of leaving the kids in the car. Of course I was so shocked and called my husband home. After talking to the girl and my husband we figured out that it was all about a time when my husband was at the gas station and was standing by the car but the doors were shut and he was talking to somebody. My son was very upset about it. I talked to my son about it b/c he had told me about it too. Anyway, it turned out that my son told my MIL so she decided to get us back for changing her plans on her. My husband and I would never leave the kids in the car. I hate to even have them in the car when I return the shopping cart in the parking lot just several feet away. Anyway, this is just one of the many many things she has done to me. She has sent me an anonymous letter implying that my husband was having an affair. When I was first pregnant with my son she also told me that she was afraid that my husband was having an affair. She used to call our house and hang up all the time, do drive by's, call me many times a day just to be in our business. She has even told me that I need to not spend so much time at my mothers. It got to be too much so when the whole DSS thing happened, I cut her out of our lives. It is difficult b/c she lives just 5 miles from us. I did not let her see my boys for almost two years. Like this girl on the show, I was scared for my life. Not to sound melodramatic but my husband has told me that his own father has expressed the same fears (Although he is still with her) My husband is on my side b/c he has seen the destructive things his mother has done to many people, however, he feels that they are still the kids' grandparents. I now let them see the boys and have them at their house once every two weeks. However, that is not enough now. They want to take them on a Disney Cruise and we will not allow it. My in-laws want to know how long this punishment will go on. It is not punishment, I just don't trust them. I totally agree with you. If my MIL ever acted that way I would do the same thing. I am lucky my MIL isn't that bad. She has her moments when she wants to over rule my decission, but now over the past year she has learned that its my decission what the kids can have or cannot have when I am around. If she wants themt to push her over when its just her with them thats fine, but not when I am around, they will behave and listen. I believe you did the only thing you could do. |
