That was what I was wondering about. In these situations is it best to try to be the peacemaker, or "take one for the team" in hopes that the other parties will follow? While I would never imagine I would have tried to do anything with my brother's relationship, I think something may have to happen with my sister-in-law's as I can see it some day spill over into her daughter's relationship with the rest of the family.

In about eighteen months or so, my wife should have her Marriage and Family Therapy degree. It will be interesting how her take on this will be after training.
