Serious family drama....trying to stay calm. Long.

DH's sis is amazing, and so is BIL. They have 2 girls, and we all have a great time together. DH's brother is a jack ass, and his wife is a flipping nightmare, (they have 2 boys). So the BIL we love planned a surprise vacation in FL for his family and DH asked if we could join them. BIL was all for it. DH's idiot brother already planned a family vacation the same week to NC. When the idiot brother and his wife found out we went on vacation together they started blowing up DH's and SILs phones calling them every name in the book, telling them to go eff themselves and have since been posting horrible lies about us on facebook. DH told idiot BIL to stop posting family matters and lies on FB-his reponse was again "go eff yourself". They have told their friends that we're calling them names, have disowned them, we purposely excluded their kids because we don't love them and that they are so hurt by our words and actions.Their friends have responded by saying they are going to kick all of our asses, how could anyone hurt such amazing people...GAG! This has gone on for 4 days now. (Mind you, most of the family can see this including DH's grandmother.) They have since deleted all of the ugly lies on FB and started apologizing...not real apologies, but saying "I'm sorry, but you excluded us and said horrible things about us"...that's not an apology and it's a lie. DH has not called them one name or cussed-not even once. He's pretty much ignored every call and text because it's not worth responding to their BS. Idiot BIL started texting DH telling him he was going to join a co-ed soccer team and play with DH's ex...from 7 years ago. As if that was supposed to hurt his feelings or something...so immature. (Mind you, idiot BIL is a cop and acts like this.) They also told the SIL I love that she's been spending too much time with me because she's turned into a "raging b*tch" just like me. (I've not had any communication with them and still get called names.) I can't believe grown adults are acting like this. I want to tell both of those lying pieces of sh*t to jump off the nearest cliff, and now that they made their FB profiles public (we're not friends...this is not our first dispute), I want to post the truth. I'm honoring DH's request and staying out of it, and I know that regardless of what I say, they don't live in reality and will only use it to keep the drama alive. What is wrong with people?!?!? Psycho SIL is worthless. She does nothing but make up crap and post on FB everyday-all day-literally from the time she gets up (around 10am) until 2am! I mean every 5 minutes!!!! Her 2+ year old son still drinks exclusively from a bottle and has no verbal skills. He watches Yo Gabba Gabba all day long-his only interaction. Her house is filthy and they are in serious debt. They just asked for $2k from FIL last month, and just asked for more. I hope he doesn't give it to them-if this is how you treat family, why should family help you out. I feel so sorry for their kids. They're sick all the time and neglected. I want to spend time with them, but not if it means being around their ignorant parents. SIL has always pretended to like me and then stabbed me in the back-I swear that b*tch doesn't have a knife left in her house. I have never trusted her and have been proven right over and over. 3 weeks ago she posted on FB that my daughter (her 2 year old niece) was a "spoiled brat and a biter who doesn't really know any sign language, she throws gang signs and cusses". Talking trash about my daughter, really??? Then wonder why I don't jump on the chance to add you to a family vacation? My daughter used to sign a little because they teach it at daycare. They also started calling all of the family and telling them that we know the gender but aren't telling anyone. I wish!!! My last u/s was just shy of 12 weeks-unless you have an amnio, no one tells you that early! I know I should just ignore it, but it's been 6 years of this BS and I'm tired of having it in my life. Ok, sorry for the long vent. DH has asked me not to talk about it with my friends (embarrassing), so I need to let it out somewhere. Ugh!

Re: Serious family drama....trying to stay calm. Long.
Im so sorry you have to go thru that! My ILs do the same thing-and post everything on FB. I deleted my FB account because I got tired of all of their BS. Since then we havent had communication-and we live within 20 minutes of eachother (SIL).
Some people abuse the FB thing. Its sad. But since Ive deleted it I havent had any problems with SIL, other than the fact that she'll occassionally (once a month) txt Dh.
As far as my MIL is concerned, I dont talk to her that much/if at all. We live in the same town, I just choose not to be around that nonsense. And I think they get the point that "where I go, my kids go".
Its been really nice lately!! Good luck and hang in there
Follow your DH's advice and don't get involved. I think that hiding her posts would be a good idea as well so that you don't have to see it all. I'd just watch your own page so that you can delete any crazy stuff they post on your own page.
Family drama can be crazy- and sometimes there is just nothing you can do to reason with people or stop the insanity. Then I think the best course is to avoid it as much as possible.
Good luck!
