My mother in law did not have a good relationship with anyone. She didn't like me and pushed her son away because of me and constantly hurt him. He was so angry with her one day he yelled and called her pathetic and said that he was done with her. About a week later she died. This was June 25th so it's only been a few months. My husband ended up going to work that night thinking it would help to just keep busy. Ever since then he acts fine but I know he is hurting inside. Not only did his last words to his mother have to be harsh and out of anger , he also had a lot of childhood resentment toward her that was never worked through.
The advice I need is what can I do. I want so badly to make him feel better and fix things but I don't know how. So far I try to not talk about it and I have been holding my tongue about things around the house or his attitude. I don't know if letting him get away with being rude and impatient with our family is good or not. I need help. I don't know whether to live like everyday and just be there when he wants to talk or slack up on him and just brush off things he may say or do ??
