Hi
This is my first time posting but I would really appreciate some perspective please.
On Christmas Eve my FIL kicked my DS (age 2) and my DH and I are really struggling to come to terms with it.
I was not there but my DS had kicked my FIL. My DH had told him not to kick and he ran off, then headed back to do the same again. My DH stepped between DS and FIL to prevent it happening again. FIL said no it's ok I've got this- he let my DS kick him and then FIL kicked him on the shin. It was hard enough that he cried hard and the bruise is still there.
I went round and told my FIL that it was not acceptable but he was angry with me for going round rather than sorry for what he had done.
We have not seen them since. Any discussions on the phone have basically indicated that they think we are over reacting.
Any advice would be welcome.
