to be seriously pissed off

[EXmrsmascarahead]

and would I be unreasonable to tell them to fuck the fuck off and when they get there fuck off somemore.

Nearly 2 weeks ago my DH was the victim of a brutal assault, his physical injuries that can be seen are nearly healed, however the unseen ones will take more time, the psychological effects are just beginning to show themselves. Needless to say these past 2 weeks have been hard on DH and I and the DCs.

Today an article about the attack has appeared in the local paper and is now up for discussion on FB, one of his sisters has posted that she didn't know how serious it was, WHY DIDN'T YOU FUCKIN ASK?, another has suggested he is recovering but how would she know she hasn't seen or spoken to him for 10 days.

His mother hasn't bothered contacting him at all. Only my family has asked if he is doing okay and offered any help if we need it, his family have done sweet FA.

WIBU to have nothing to do with them anymore as its obvious we mean nothing?

Did anyone tell them how serious it was or did they read about it in the papers?

I don't think you are BU, but you're about to be bombarded with posts telling you you're U for having anything to do with FB!

What does DH say about his family?

on your behalf. Speedy recovery for you all.

I think it'd be up to you and your DH to spell out how serious it was and how it's still affecting him, but that doesn't excuse them not contacting you when they know!

Why hasn't his mum contacted him? That's a bit weird, what's the backstory?

They where told the injuries he had sustained and that the assault was serious and under police investigation.

I have no idea why his mother hasn't contacted him, neither does he, it has become the norm in his family to ignore us but both of us thought that maybe she would have phoned just to see if he was okay.

It is Ur of them but not uncommon. Some families (most of mine) are just ignorant pointless fecks.

concentrate on getting your DH the help he needs and just leave them to their own lives Xx

YANBU, it's sad when families don't give each other good support at tricky times.

Hope your DH and you all get over it as best you can xx
