[QUOTE="ldp4570, post: 1573797, member: 5168"] Sounds exactly like my wife's family!!! Its one of the reason's I'm glad they don't want to visit Ok, cause their visit would be short!! Last time they were all together(During my wife's mothers funeral) at least four got hauled off to jail. That was in Canada. My wife wasn't one of them, and I was stuck at home on leave with both the kids. This was back in my LEO days, so they were babies. To this day they(our kids) only know their relatives by pic's(on her side) an horror stories. Time before that, I thought I was either going to call 911 or effect arrest. They hadn't been together 3 hours before a fist fight broke out between one of my wifes sisters and their mother. They are worse than throwing gasoline on an electrical fire. Pretty much the same on my side, just not as volatile, but ever so wicked, and for the longest time I thought it was just something that was between my dad an his brothers an sisters. Then this past Christmas I saw it raise its ugly head with my brother an sister. I'm so glad I'm the oldest, an by the time I left home in 1976 both of them were very young, sister is eight years younger, brother is 13yrs younger. My brother finally grew up one day, stopped doing drugs, and stopped drinking, and went to school an became a chef, and made a good living at it, while my sister went to college to get her teaching degree. Even with her masters she couldn't get herself into the Georgia school system, and has been working Day-care ever since, so she has a big chip on the shoulder, two failed marriages, an when my brother an his wife fell on hard times(She has to be close to a big city, and forced him to give this all up, my brother had a fantastic gig in Tenn as an executive chef with a retiree's country club, which provided free housing, an full privileges at the CC, plus he was making high five figure income 65 to 70K), my sister decided to get involved on her side, an got my brother royally screwed to where he has to work two jobs is living back home with my dad, and only gets one weekend a month with his kids, unless mama is going on vacation, she never takes her kids with her on any of the vacations.
