Oh god I really have got myself in a mess about this, not sure if I am being ridiculous or if this is going to be a genuinely terrible day. We haven't spoken for 4 years after I had a realisation that my DF almost certainly has NPD and at best is a manipulative bully. My mother is a functioning alcoholic (I think I might be if I was married to him) and has always put him first. After DH asked him to leave our home (at my request, DS was newborn and I was hormonal) I tried to explain to my mother that I would still like to have a relationship with her, and for her to see my DCs. She refused saying that it would be disloyal to DF.
Fast forward 4 years and my sister's wedding is imminent. None of my DMs family are talking to me because I am not talking to her. I did try to explain that it really didn't happen that way and that I actually have no problem with her. I find it more surprising that they feel this way considering they all can't stand DF.
It's going to be awful isn't it? DCs are already worried about seeing DF after his previous behaviour towards them and me. They have asked what to do if he tries to talk to them :( Any ideas on how to handle this?
