Hi! Is there someone in here that feels their privacy is being violated every time in-laws are involved? I know they're "family" but it's just that my peace is being gone every single time. How do you do it? For the record, i dont have a relationship with them. I cut my communication before giving birth. I remained civil whenever we would see each other. We all live overseas and I would always be in distress whenever we see each other because of too much unnecessary drama. They wanted to be involve in our little family's vacation (which I honestly do not like). How do you manage your in laws?

I managed them the wrong way so now that I know better.. What I could say is to make sure you openly create boundaries. If you don't, they will keep intruding and it will continue to escalate. Be respectful yet stern and if you need to make a statement and leave, so be it. Boundaries, boundaries, boundaries!
I can relate to the privacy violated, my mother in law would come to our flat with barely any notice, sometimes first thing in the morning when me and my daughter where still in our pjs and my partner still asleep and she’d come in like “why aren’t you dressed”
