I am going NC with JNMIL after she did all sorts of horrible things like breaking into my house, screaming at my child (middle school age), and lying about me in therapy. I told husband I don’t want her contacting our child either, as child tells me how uncomfortable they are interacting with her; husband said he wanted to get child’s opinion outright rather than having it filtered through a third party with probable bias (me). Sure. Ok. Child is old enough to advocate for their own interests.
He goes and asks child, “how would you feel if you never interacted with my mom again?” Child just says, “Good!”
