I have a sister in-law, “Karen,” no one in my husband’s family likes. She’s rude and insulting and acts like she is better than everyone else.
She feels she’s entitled to have family members watch her kids so she can do what she wants. If anyone confronts her about her bad behavior, she claims she has anxiety and depression to make the person feel guilty.
I know many family members will side with her out of sympathy, but I can no longer sit back and accept her verbally abusing me and others with no consequences. I know I need a plan so I won’t lose my temper and say something I’ll regret, but I’m not sure how to respond in a respectful way. Any ideas? -- DOESN’T LIKE CONFLICT IN KENTUCKY
Contact with my husband was reestablished when she became of age. I do my best to acknowledge holidays, birthdays, etc., for all of them. The problem for me is there is never any reciprocation, and I’m tired of it.
