Kimmy,

Please keep the copy of the recording and play it in front of your future inlaws. That should stop further back biting in the future. Do not feel you need to befriend these people unless and until you get a full apology. I urge you to let Jen listen to it, too. This is no time to keep huge secrets in the family.

If I sound harsh, it's because I learned the hard way that keeping secrets to keep down trouble is a breeding ground for even more abuse.

Jan.
