OK. here goes. I have been married to my wife for about 6 years, and for as long as i have known it I have been dealing with here irresponsible family. They are constantly asking for money and favor after favor. They have no boundaries when it comes to respecting me as a individual or as a father of our daughter. I guess my question is..... How do you deal with in-laws that dont respect your views as a father for your child, and should I or should my wife be setting the boundaries with her parents/family in regards to how they interact with me. I am perfectly capable of letting the family know what the deal is, but for some reason it works out better for me to cater to their narcissistic tendencies because this provides me with the most and fastest relief....HELP!!!
