Hi
My brother in law this crimbo as ignored the family dinner ,boxing day and refusing contact he as an habit of being a twit. The problem is due tih behaviour his wife is now drink's booze like it's bloody tap water and im left with her kid and sod's off back to his home. Would it unresonable to slap him and show him hey im english but he 's a canadian shit with no manner's. This christmas was speacil because my mum in law is close to death and we have no other surivivng parent's so we had a good drink quite literally £300 bar bill we were all in a mess but who cares obviously the canadian one did. I apologise if canadian's are reading this but if were not for my hubby's job i would of floored him by now god help's us at mum's funeral were considering getting the police on stand by.

ok. So - you don't like your brother in law?

there is a very simple solution to that - tell him you don't want anything more to do with him. Don't spend time with him and just live your life with your own family.

Don't allow him to drop his child off at your house. Tell him if he ever does that agan, you will contact social services and report the child as abandoned.

It really is in your hands. People don't necessarily behave the way you want them to, you can't control that. All you can control is what you do. You are not a victim of other people's choices. You can say no, I won't accept that.

Has anyone said sense of entitlement yet?

yes, what Hec said

don't enable them, say no

Thanks for taking the time to explain Jux. I found your post very interesting not just in the context of this thread but also regarding my own broader understanding.

As far as this thread goes, I am (as usual) with KFP.
