Great questions , but 100 % the spit . <| sep |> Got this case a while ago , it is beautiful and has so much room in it for a mid case . <| sep |> Oh yeah ? Call his bluff and tell him ok , I respect your decision . Bc he doesn ' t mean it . He ' s hoping severing the relationship will drive a wedge in your marriage and that his son will blame you for being difficult . Pure evil , toxic , malevolent shit . This happened to us . My inlaws actually told my husband they didn ' t want to see the grandchildren anymore because it hurt so much . When we didn ' t capitulate to their games , they twisted their words around to say they cut DH me off but not grandchildren . We ignored that too . They now say that they never cut anyone off . If it wasn ' t in writing , DH I actually would doubt ourselves . Enjoy the peace and quiet . They will be back , accusing you of grandparent alienation or the like . Positive side in all this DH could no longer deny the extent of their mental instability and cruelty . They do you a favor by revealing their true nature . Stay strong .
