I'm a person who cares little for words and trusts what I see, so yes, I agree. Stop talking.
In a nutshell, I spoke to each of my sons and said: I prefer not to talk about your dad. That's his business and none of mine. Encouraged them to talk to each other and trusted friends.
It's hard because historically we've discussed everything, but I know they understand my position and they actually said they are glad because he's being "so weird, mom".

I just received the inspection report and hopefully sellers will agree to lower terms or providing the repairs. If they don't I'm ok with it. I'll find the perfect place (perfect for me). Inspections are expensive, though! geez!!
