Well seeing Stinkies post, thought I might put out my own, and get some opinions.
This weekend, my fiancee, our kids and I went to her parent's house, which is 220 miles away, to help them move. They were moving another 250 miles away, so total to get to their house, and then the new house, it was about 500 miles. Well, my kids have not been apart from me, aside from work, for a very long time. My fiancee's step dad decides its best to have my fiancee and her mom take the kids to the new house, and stay the night there while we load the Uhaul. What should have taken 3 hours tops, takes us a day and a half, and I and my future bro in law get to here bitching about EVERYBODY. How my mom in law didn't pack right, to co-workers, to the brother being lazy... I mean everybody and everything. Well, we finally get the truck packed, cars loaded and drive the 250 miles to the new house. We get there, the women take the kids to get us dinner, as its already late in the evening. Well, the step dad yells to take the kids, because they are whining to stay, as they hadn't seen me in a day and a half. We have a 6 year old daughter, a 3 year old daughter, and an 18 month old son. I let that one slide, as they would have been in the way, We start unloading the truck, they get back with the food, and the kids are trying to help, like kids do. He again gets mad, tells my fiancee to keep them out of the way. I let this one slide, and about ten minutes later, we are moving the last big item in the house, and my son and youngest daughter are whining, trying to get to me. He yells at my fiancee, get those kids in a room and shut the door, and tells her I don't care how much you don't like it and ##### about it. This time is the last straw, I tell him they are kids, and kids whine sometimes, especially after a long two days, and tell him not to talk to my fiancee like that. The only reason I didn't go further, and do anything, is because my kids are standing right there. he gets all huffy puffy, and tells me it's time for you guys to leave, at 10:30 at night, almost 500 miles from home. So I tell him, okay, we are leaving, don't ask us to come back. We pack up our things, load them in the car, all the time, my fiancee's mom is crying for us not to leave, and the kids are crying, as they never get to see their grandma. She is like a slave to him, and gets cussed out and yelled at when she wants to come see the kids. Mind you, she doesn't work, but takes care of their house, and anything he needs. The question I have, is do you guys think I was in the wrong at all, for sticking up for my fiancee and kids?
