Woman Fed Up With Disrespectful Daughter-in-law After Years of Red Flags, She Cuts Contact With Son When DIL Refuses to Apologize for Offensive Name Calling

We're all familiar with the notion that you can't choose your family. We can't choose who our mothers are, who our fathers are, or our siblings. We're stuck with them for life, and it's something we all have to adjust to. Fortunately or unfortunately, we can't choose our in-laws either. If your son marries a wily, disrespectful, horrible woman, then what choice do you have? You have to deal with her to some capacity, or you have to cut contact with your own son. 

This brings us to the Reddit thread. In this story, the original poster (OP) is a woman who is fed up with her horrible, toxic daughter in-law. For years she's seen the red flags, and her worry has only caused more drama between herself and her son. She didn't even have the option to take distance with this disrespectful, name-calling woman because they had nowhere to turn, so she took them in. For far too long, she let her son, his wife, and the wife's children live at her place rent free. One bad thing led to another, and they eventually moved out, albeit not without their drama ruminating in the relationship. You'll have to read the full story below for all the juicy details.
