  1. Your husband’s relationship with his family isn’t your problem. Why would he want to engage with them if they’re manipulative and calculating? They don’t sound like pleasant company. Let him navigate his own relationships with his family.

    Leaving the group isn’t passive aggressive. The texts are meant for your husband, so there’s no reason for you to take part. They only added you because they know you’ll get fed up and tell your husband to talk to them. So leave. If they add you again, leave again. If they refuse to take the hint, block them. Is there any real need to communicate with them?

    Beyond Bitchy is a great podcast for establishing healthy boundaries in relationships.

  2. Do you think they message you too because you’re less likely to say no to them? My MIL used to do this and she even started coming to me first to ask to see us. My husband finally told her to go to him.

    In your case I just wouldn’t reply at all.
