Relatives of my hubby (MIL included) seem to think it's ok for them to crack jokes & stereotypes about Latinos (I'm Latina) b/c they don't see it as ignorant or racist b/c I married into the family. Since I'm family now, they think it's perfectly acceptable to make these remarks not only to me but in front of my family as well at our wedding 5 years ago. Needless to say, my family was pissed (rightfully so) but b/c it was my wedding & they didn't want to start a fight or drama with them , they let it go.
We're at the point that we avoid them as much as possible and only see them once a year if we can. My MIL we see about once a month.
