Sooo.. my husbands birthday was at his sisters house, I know! Anyway our relationship had been going ok until I found out that my sil had been gossiping about my mum, when I mentioned this was unacceptable she told me that my friend and her son were no longer welcome on the holiday we had planned. She then laughed at me and told me (insults)... anyway by the end she was so upset that I questioned her and stood up for myself that I was threatened with a knife.. in front of my daughters.
She is now denying this happened, husband is a lightweight and fell asleep during most of this but my kids remember.. and remember telling mother in law off for not intervening.
So my problem is... wtf! And how do I deal with these people, I do love them but the lies they have told have impacted our kids as well as our marriage, but everything is my fault at the moment because “I cancelled the holiday that my friend was excluded from.”
