When someone steps over that line I think the way you do. I won't speak to them or have anything to do with them ever again. Makes no difference if they are family or friends.

When I die I'm sure to go to heaven, cause I spent my time in hell.
You get more with a kind word and a two by four, than you do with just a kind word.

Manu, I read this far and decided to jump in. I think it important that you say, "You've crossed a line, that will NOT be tolerated. I love you, but will cut you off if you ever repeat this behavior with my wife or children. Take ME on, fine, them, no."Originally Posted by manu1959

A-MEN. Been there done that, and feel exactly the same way. She doesn't have to change, but she gets treated in accordance with her behavior toward me and mine.
Had to do the same with her clone, my brother.

Good Luck Dude.
Everytime I hear a varient on this story I thank God that all but one of my family are as great as normal folks can be.
Wish I had some words of wisdom, but I don't. Again, Good luck. Hope you get both what you want and what you need.

Well. What did you do?
Someone said "some people just like to fight'. My mother is like that. Didn't speak to her for about a year, then moved without telling her. To make a long story short, she's careful at my house now.

That's all you need to say. Keep it short and sweet. Don't make a big speech, just lay it out. Slap her right in the face with it quick. If she responds with more shit, tell her to get her fucking ass a'goin. If she calms down, all the better. Either way, problem solved.
