Our reader Nadine sent us an emotional letter. The fact is that her in-laws invited the whole family over for dinner, leaving her children out. To make matters worse, her husband knew this and approved of this behavior.
This is Nadine’s letter.
We decided to find out what readers think about this situation. All of them found the behavior of the husband and in-laws offensive.
- I have a very short answer that I use on occasion, and that is. When people show you who they are, believe them. Whatever is said now and whatever apologies made, you know who they all are. © Linda Fawcett / Facebook
- If my kids weren’t welcome at whatever function, I wouldn’t go either. © Sandy Freed / Facebook
- I would have left straight away and if my husband didn’t follow, I would have finished my marriage, when it comes to my kids no one wins over them. © Liz Russell Flaherty / Facebook
- I’d ask my hit if he cared about me and the kids. And then I’d leave the restaurant with or without him. © Faye Birkbeck / Facebook
- This happened to us for a wedding. Other kids were there. We drove 3 hours to get there, so we were stuck. That was 40 years ago. I never forgot. © Regina Mason / Facebook
- My children come first, they are not baggage’s … it does not matter if you’re blood or not, kindness should be organic. © M Otto Rittah Rxs / Facebook
- I would seriously consider whether you stay with your husband, as he clearly hasn’t accepted your children. To say that they shouldn’t be at a family gathering because they’re not blood relatives, means he agrees with your in-laws. I can only imagine how your kids feel with their ‘so called’ dad, disowning them in this manner. © James Wood / Facebook
Conflict with in-laws is not uncommon. Here is the story of a young woman who decided to teach her insolent mother-in-law a lesson.
“Heaven for introverts!” Everyone laughed at this man until he opened the doors to his unique shelter
Tired of the hustle and bustle of city life, today’s hero decided to radically change his life and look for a secluded place where he could live in peace, far from prying eyes and the bustle of civilization.
He acknowledged the city’s amenities and professional opportunities, but he remained steadfast in his decision. He quit his job and broke away from family responsibilities to embark on an extraordinary journey full of challenges and unexpected turns.
His first step was to set up a simple camp in the wilderness that would later become his permanent home. Inspired by literary works such as “The Lord of the Rings”, he began to realize his vision of a tree house.
He shaped the natural elements around him to create the structure of his future residence. He designed each room with care and dedication, ensuring that his home would offer him both solitude and freedom.
Far away from urban life, he found happiness and contentment in nature. His experiences encourage people around the world to pursue their own dreams and live the life they really want. For him, nature combines both simplicity and elegance and offers a timeless source of inspiration for a fulfilled life.
