My MIL is a really nice lady, but she used to cause a lot of problems when it came to the skids. She admits that they have been nasty, manipulative, and mean since they were little. She and her husband spent a lot of time, with DH, trying to help these kids, but BM fought them every way. In BM's world, there are no rules, morals, or values.

The young adult skids choose to live like BM. Therefore, I will have nothing to do with them.

My MIL, however, thinks they are going to wake up one day and change. Sometimes she just says this, other times she says we should pray about it. I KNOW people can change, I have seen it. But, I really think, the skids are incapable of change. They are...not right. Like today, DH's daughter posted on Facebook that she wishes she could lock up all of the people she hates (she hates many people), in a house in the middle of nowhere, set it on fire, and watch them beg for their lives and burn. This is not the first time she has spoken or posted something so outrageous. DH's sons are just as bad.

But, yet, MIL says they.will.change. I think DH holds out hope for this alleged change, but he is starting to lose hope a bit. But every time we see MIL, she has to bring up the skids and give us her opinion they will change. I feel bad for her.

Anyone else have inlaws/family members like this?
