Do I give him the letter?

Asked by Seek (34805points) March 15th, 2010

My husband’s crazy mother, whom he doesn’t talk to, doesn’t want to hear from, and pretty much tries to forget exists, sent him a letter in the mail today.

It was one of her usual rants : “The rich are evil, the poor are poor because they don’t trust Jesus, the country is in a good place (What?) but in 30 years there’s going to be a recession (uh…huh…), you should really talk to your father more (we… do.) blah blah blah… ” Insert some random advice on business practices (she’s never had a job. Ever.) and some “Jesus loves you” crap, and this time throw in a couple of pamphlets for her church (which is in Illinois. We’re in Florida.)

I know it’s going to piss him off. I’ll have to listen to him rant for a week and overanalyze every screwy comment.

Can I really get away with not letting him know it came? or am I morally obligated to give him his mail? does it count as lying to him if I don’t?
