Facing intimations of child abuse from the in-laws. Seriously. GREAT way to spend the weekend, guessing and second guessing what it is that someone who's pretty tight into the inner workings of my family sees that makes her think it's okay to say that kind of shit.
Oh, and even better! Notes that tell me I'm out of line, and that being upset about this - not even the first time, mind you - is unacceptable, and that I'm blowing things out of proportion or taking them out of context or something like that. Yeah, it makes my day.
I'll let you know when thinking about it doesn't make my face pale and red at the same time. Yep, I'll tell you when it can come into my head without making me shake.

Whoever is making these implications is more than likely doing it TO MANIPULATE AND HURT YOU. It's a power tactic - make someone think that you have something you can hold over their head, and you have power. Go ahead and look at how you're parenting, fix any problems you see, talk to your husband about changes, whatever, but recognize other people's manipulative and snide behavior for what it is.
Granted, all of this is from a way, way outside perspective. I know this can't feel too great. :(
