MIL has just been diagnosed with dementia and I couldn't give a stuff. She completely trashed my husbands life when she and FIL thought that sexually abusing him was ok. She tried to manipulate me and attacked me when I warned her to stay far far away from me and my children (husband makes up his own mind on contact).
She has always been an alcoholic but now she has dementia and I don't care...but I feel like I should at least for my husbands sake. My own mum died recently so I know what he might be feeling but I am finding it very difficult to have any sympathy. I feel like a dreadful person but as far as I am concerned she should just go die and let my DH move on with his life properly. Thing is she now wants more contact with DH and photos if not contact with our children. I am so angry about her trying to manipulate again and using her illness as an excuse. WIBU to just let her stew in her own juices and keep zero contact with my children, DH will make up his own mind for himself but we do discuss it. I have always made sure DH knows that I do not want him to stop contact with his parents but our children will never be included which DH is fine with. AIBU or are my feelings reasonable in this case?
