Trouble with inlaws..... ? what to do?
My spouse got into a fight with his dad and my spouse left his parents house quickly.. I was left to clean up and carry out all the baby stuff. So while I was cleaning up - I wasn't hiding or anything like that - my spouse' father says to his friend who is sitting at the table with him : " My side of the family, it wouldn't matter to me if I saw any of them ever again." Now, this includes my daughter who was also in the room but too young to understand what this meant - but I sure understood. I said "You should not have said that infront of me - it was really hurtful". I recieved no apology and simply left the household. How do you think I should react to this?

I think you should stay away from them, and keep you kids away from them until you get an apology, plus they need to know not to be saying stuff around kids like that. Your child at one point will be old enough to understand things like that and is it something you would like for your baby to hear when she understands ?. Set boundaries with them but until then stay away. Best wishes.

DON'T GIVE INVOLVED! the last thing you want is his family hating you...trust me!
So let your spouse and his father sort out their own problems.
If his father said that in front of you then he did it for a reaction. He is probably hoping you'll tell your husband to fuel the fire. So what ever you do don't tell your partner what he said other wise the father gets what he wanted.
Also i would suggest to your husband to talk to his dad after he's cooled down. Nothing worst that family fights over something so silly.

It wasn't about you. It was the father expressing his upset over his son, with whom he had just had a fight.
Without knowing what the fight was about, I can't really advise you on what to do next.

Ignore him for the time being. He will come to you and ask for forgiveness. If not I would not go back. If your daughter wants to see him then that will be on them
