to never let BIL near my children ever again

There is a bit of a backstory so will keep it brief. Bil is 25, just moved out from il's house inwith his gf. He has history for being very selfish/self centred. We know that he has been injectng himself with testosterone for 'muscle build' He knew that now he has moved out dd's (4.3 and 2.7) would be sleeping in his room + that we were coming up this weekend. He didn't clean out his room at all.
Dh got here a day before dd's and i and filled 6 binbags with stuff from his room including
Lock knives
A loaded bb gun
Porn mags
Empty viagra blister packs
And
6 unused hypodermic needles.

Obviously i do not think iabu but we can't tell mil + fil (she is incapacitated after a stroke + fil is 73 + got enough on his plate) so wtf do we do?

Posting on phone from mates house so might not be able to come back but would welcome any comments as i think showing him other parents reactions might help him see we are nit 'being fucking twats' as i know that's what he will say.

Dear Jacks BIL you are the fucking twat. Grow up.

tadjennyp · 28/05/2010 22:10

No, he sounds like a selfish, self-obsessed idiot who shouldn't be allowed within 100 yards of anyone's children, let alone yours. You are so not being unreasonable.

ApocalypseCheese · 28/05/2010 22:11

Omfg, yanbu !!

ChazsBarmyArmy · 28/05/2010 22:12

Tosser and a slob - wouldn't want him anywhere near my kids

jmc112 · 28/05/2010 22:12

That's horrific. YA absolutely NBU.

Jamieandhismagictorch · 28/05/2010 22:13

Presumably his blase reactions to things like knives and needles are caused by injecting testosterone, so I doubt anything we have to say will have an effect.

E's a wanker, dump the bin bags outside his new place.

mamas12 · 28/05/2010 23:43

Ha! Love that idea jux with a note saying 'You forgot these'

LittleMissHissyFit · 28/05/2010 23:50

another yanbu here. Your bil, for example, is a twat!

In fact if you ever do let yr dc anywhere near him, i'll come down and slap you myself!

that was a joke, i know you have weapons!

2shoes · 28/05/2010 23:50

yanbu

mumtofour · 28/05/2010 23:53

No way are you being unreasonable. Your kids are the most important thing in your life and you have a right to protect them.

JackBauer · 29/05/2010 00:55

thanks guys. We knew wwnbu (dh is reading too) but it's nice to have back up whenwe really can't involve parents, iyswim.

Am so angry right now wth him, what if dhhadnt checked?! Fucking cunt. How fucking dare he?
And who did he think ws gointg to tidy his room with mil wheelchair bound + fil so preoccupied? The frickng cleaning fairy?
Grrr.

Thediaryofanobody · 29/05/2010 01:02

Wow what an utter prat! Anyone who though so little of children that they would leave such things lying around really isn't worth bothering with IMO. Certainly not someone I'd choose to have around my children.

DetectivePotato · 29/05/2010 10:25

Clearly shows that he really doesn't give a toss about anyone but himself.

YANBU, keep well away from him!

CheekyPinkSox · 29/05/2010 10:40

Just say to him, i hope your girlfriend doesnt ant kids, because with the stuff your injection you may aswell cut your balls off with a kitchen knife!

CheekyPinkSox · 29/05/2010 10:41

want & injectING

HecateQueenOfWitches · 29/05/2010 10:47

Selfish. Self centred.

re the needles - is he diabetic or something? Or is it illegal substances? Because if it's the latter, then you'd be wasting your breath. Junkies normally don't care about anything but their next fix. Their world is themselves and their need. It's the nature of the beast.

JackBauer · 29/05/2010 14:07

Hecate, we're pretty sure that they are the needles he uses to inject testosterone. As far as we can tell he has no idea we are not talking/visiting so now we have 2 choices
We say nothing and just don't go round/make excuses. This way mil + fil are kept out of it, which is very important as they really can't take too much stress. But he gets away with it, again.
OR we tell him exactly what we think and why. He will most likely bitch to mil, + she will insist on knowing why...

OP posts:
HecateQueenOfWitches · 29/05/2010 14:11

of yes. reading your op properly I see that

Testosterone turns you into a monster, doesn't it?

tbh, I think your best bet would be to have nothing to do with him.

does he want to make sure that his parents know nothing too? Because you could make it plain to him that any bother from him and you will make sure his parents are 100% aware of the facts.

  • ok, it's a bluff, but if you are convincing enough you could keep him away.
Lulumaam · 29/05/2010 14:14

how utterly, utterly pathetic, self absorbed and selfish is he?

presumably, he needs the viagra as he is unable to get /sustain an erection due to steroid abuse ? wonder how long the GF will last

6 bin bags of rubbish is disgraceful

i would certainly be considering barring him from setting foot in the house again ever, or at least utnil he gets help for his problmes

giveittomebabylikeboomboomboom · 29/05/2010 14:16

If he's been injecting testosterone and taking viagra I personally wouldn't want to antagonise him - he might combust....! Urrgh - porn and sexual aggression. Just the thought of it makes me come over all Andrea Dworkin.
