A local friend's mother sounds just like your FIL -- self-centered to an extreme and unable to actually be a parent. I've seen how complicated it is to be the adult child of such a person.

It probably wouldn't last though; they would fight constantly over who was the sickest or closest do death. I think really all you can do is just laugh. And maybe drink.

We avoid the SIL, but that's just because she's obnoxious, not naked in the kitchen!<br /><br />I'm thinking the only thing you can do is wait.

I'm guessing that the only way to deal with it and stay sane yourselves is to laugh.Common Household Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03715969218648104267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7301586145140787353.post-81563384789937077082013-12-02T16:23:13.164-06:002013-12-02T16:23:13.164-06:00Thank you for making me grateful that all MY relat...Thank you for making me grateful that all MY relatives are wonderful; and my more peripheral relatives--like, my children's step-family and various in-and-out-laws, may be pretty awful but are not quite THAT awful. <br /><br />Interestingly, aside from being a decent cook who always brings homemade candy to holiday events, I'm pretty sure the reason I get invited to things is that when I'm there the stinkers realize how ghastly they are, and they straighten up considerably (if temporarily.) (You're welcome, Annie.)<br /><br />On the other hand, now I really miss my far-flung siblings!
