Inspired by another in-law thread going on at the moment. It seems a lot of in-law conflict arises with marriage or grandchildren. If you had conflict were you able to heal the wounds and have a positive relationship? Or was it downhill from there?
I have a very strained relationship with in-laws and am sitting on the fence about whether to stay distanced and low contact, or whether to give them the benefit of the doubt and see if we can have a more meaningful relationship (with firm boundaries). As it stands, they see little of their GC because of issues we’ve had and they’re very unhappy about the situation. Do you think that means it’s more likely that a second chance would be successful?
