Why is it only the one child?
Where do you live? Is it even a thing there? It’s not in the uk. Next time he says it if it was me i’d just say “go on then, let’s see how that ends for you”🙃
Not a thing in Australia
What age is your husbands brother? Why wouldn't he be able to see him if he quit? Seems like him quitting would be the easiest thing, I mean otherwise he will have decades of this nonsense to put up with
@sarah She was the first grandchild
@Munaza It does exist here but he doesn't qualify for rights. He thinks because he has more money it will win.
@Sarah His younger brother has cerebal pulsy and cannot walk, talk, eat, or go to the bathroom himself. Some people with this condition do not have it as bad. However he requires 24/7 care
Grandparents rights only exist in extremely specific situations. Obviously, your husband is not dead, and y'all are not divorced. Are y'all unfit parents in a way that your FIL can actually prove -- Abusing your kids, withholding food, choosing drugs over them? As long as the answers to all of those questions are "no," your FIL has no rights whatsoever and has no chance of getting any. The law gives parents the right to decide who is and is not allowed around their children. Tell your FIL that if his threats continue, he will not see any of your children. There is absolutely no reason you should have to put up with this. It's disrespectful, rude, and honestly creepy that he's so honed in on this one specific child. I'd definitely keep my distance. If hubby wants to still have something to do with him, that's fine. But until he can learn to respect you, I see no reason to keep being around him.
