So i have two more examples of how my boundaries are being disregarded:
1) my motherinlaw asked my mom who were both visiting us the other day if there was something wrong with me to MY mom! My poor mom was blind-sided!! My mom handled herself well but it is none of my MILs business. So then my MIL stated that she knows her son (my bph) made a "boo-boo." Really?????? Hes 45 yrs old and she calls the ride to hell a boo boo???? What is he 5? Does she not know how i begged for him not to stop all of his meds almost 4 years ago and he did it anyway??? She told my mom how she knows her son too! Well she will stick up to him for everything no matter what! Again...no respect for my boundaries!
2) as much as i know our 15 yo son is furious with his dad and is disrespectful to his face, and i get after him all the time, my FIL sent my son a text that reprimanded him for disrespecting his father in front of him. What is with this family???? Neither i nor my bph asked him to text our son! I chose not to respond to them. I have decided to stop getting their help lately with some driving they were doing for my husband. I had surgery and could not drive. My bph signed our daughters up for tons of sports this summer. So now that i have eliminated my inlaws from the equation... that should help!
Again...disrespect for my boundaries and even my BPH does not see how much his parents enable him to continue his depressive behavior! Ugh! I am so sick of all this crap!!!
