Dumping My Husband's Toxic Family

Synopsis

During Thanksgiving, my daughter tripped over the clutter in the living room and burst into tears from the pain. My mother-in-law snapped and smacked her on the knee. "All you ever do is cry, you worthless girl. You've ruined the whole holiday mood. Go cry somewhere else." My husband turned up the volume on his game, pretending he couldn't hear a thing. I shoved my mother-in-law aside and carried my daughter out the door.
