re: Why do people always blame the victim when things happen?

I am not going to be around psychos. And absolutely would not let my kids be around them.

Agreed MS. People with no regard to animals, especially pets have no regard for life other than their own. There is a reason sociopaths start out killing and harming animals and pets. Someone who would intentionally kill a pet would 100% harm your child 'accidentally'. It sucks for your wife and won't be easy, but as long as her family is on the SIL side and is victim blaming and not apologizing then what is best for her and your life is to cut them out. Absolute ghost. If/when they realize how absolutely psychotic they are being they can put in the effort to make amends and apologize.
