I recently married a women with a son (5). Because of circumstances, I will be the child's dad. My inlaws have absolutely no respect for my decisions. My wife backs me up at the time a situation or disagreement arises but seems to fall back to the way things were before the disagreement. Trust me, a statement must be made to the inlaws but I want to tactfully get my wife's support. About a month back, her parents wanted to pick him up to go swimming. I said ok but make sure he is home by 7 so we can eat together. They didn't like having to respect a time.They raised hell about this, brought him home late anyway, screamed at me as if I'm a child, and said that I am trying to push my wife and her (our) son away from them. We told them (inlaws) that he (son) would not be going over there during the week, etc. Now tomorrow, they want to take him for awhile. The inlaws are not rational people. Trust me, I've tried to have an adult conversation with them. What do I do?
