Anger

SD sent a card from GBMs house. I'm sure it was GBM/BMs idea. Shouldn't be a big deal, its father's day, it's expected.

But at this point any contact from them (even with SD as a proxy) fills me with rage. I want all of them to stay the heck away. Also, sending a card after all of the other crap with all of them as if that washes it all away is so reminiscent of MIL.

How surprising!  NOT

Thats the toxic people game play. Criticize, accuse, manipulate then do something nice aka fathers day card. See how much we want this family to work...then criticize accuse manipulate, then do something nice (but not for being nice, its the manipulation)

BTDT so when arguments arise MIL can say SD sent you a fathers day card through ME, I am so hurt you ever think otherwise. Again BTDT

They are crazy makers and DANG good at it.

They can all F off. DH says he's trying to learn not to have any feelings about it. I'm not sure if that's really the goal, but not feeling unwarranted guilt would be good. 

It's actually sent from GBMs, where SD and BM are on vacation right now. Same tactics as MIL though.
