It's commendable that you do not wish your BiL or SiL to pick sides, asking him to clarify what he said to you, I do not feel is asking him to pick a side.
We could all suppose and postulate here, but only he knows what he meant.
Thanks Jack. Do you have any insite as the mode of conversation I had with my BIL?
