Reading Bassys "Sibling Rivalry", Made me think about my Father-in-law.<br /><br />He is the most selfish, unloving, self centered person I have ever been around in my entire life. Knowone in the family except one daughter will even talk to him. His own grand kids will not even visit him.<br /><br />My wife stuck it out as long as she could, but now has nothing to do with him either.<br /><br />The last straw, (after taking us several times over the years for seveal thousands of dollars), his own family, was when we were on a vacation up into Canada and had planned to go down through Idaho and visit him and go four wheeling. It was a special time for my wife as it is the only thing she likes to do with her dad. We were near the Idaho boarder and called him that night to let him know we were almost there and would meet him in the morning to go four wheeling. He said he was going to bring a girl freind. He didnt ask if it was allright with us, he just decided to do it. My wife ask him not to as she just wanted to spend quality time with her Dad with just us, as she knew he would be an A*s with another woman around.. He had a fit and the only thing that he heard was that she was trying to tell him what he could and couldnt do. She tried and tried to explain to him how she felt and wanted quality time with him as she never gets to see him much and hadnt seen him for two years and he insisted on bringing her. She finnally said, "fine, If she is more important than me he you ride with her". We went right on by and havnt seen him since. He has gotten into the pockets of every kid (five) except the one girl, who has never had any finacial dealings with him because she dosnt have a pot to (well you know), She thinks the whole family is being redicules. He never visits, calls, writes letters, or ever apoligises for anything and thinks he has never ever done wrong. And he goes to church, and claims Christianity.
