writes: My husband's mother and two sisters hate me. To make a long story short our son is seven years old and they only call 6 times a year. They live in North Dakota and we live in Florida. When they call it makes me mad because they want to know everything about their nephew. They could call more than they do but they choose not to. They sent a hate letter to the house for the Mrs. I have never done anything to them. These people are very simple minded and judgemental. I need some advice and honestly dont consider them family to my daughter. Thanks! Reply to this Question Share |

I'm sure they dont hate you. Is it possible that you are looking inside the box and not out, what I mean by that is they might be having the same unsure feelings about you. You should call them up and set aside a family trip to go and see them, they are your family. Plus killing them with kindness never hurt anyone. To me it sounds like both sides are buisy with work and home life and you dont get to send enough quality time together.
Hope this helps

Oh dear. This is a huge issue and it seems like this has been going on for a long time. But to make things short, is there something you could have said/done that they could have found offensive while you were dating your husband?
Things like this never work out if you keep them quiet. It's time you do some serious chatting with your husband or his family. Because as much as you would hate to admit it, they are important in your child's life and his social development also depends on how things are going on between the family!
Really talk with them. Ask them what you did. This could be one of those "I hate you for no reason" cases. If so, focus more on YOUR family. Have your child spend more time with yours.
Hope this helps. I wish you the BEST of luck.
