Nobody needs toxic people in their life. I stopped talking to my nasty SIL, more than 10 years ago and haven't regretted it for a minute. If something you're doing hurts, stop doing it. That goes for interactions with people, and relatives can be the worse because you think they're supposed to to care about you but sometimes they don't. Blood isn't thicker than water, and sometimes it's got poison in it.
