My Mom Got Drunk and Made a Wild Accusation About My Wife. Well, My Son Believed Her.

My mother has never been particularly fond of my wife, "Ellen." Recently, at my father's birthday party, she got drunk in front everyone-including me, Ellen, and our two kids (5 and 11)-and shouted out a wild accusation. She said that that Ellen "probably screwed around" and that our kids are not mine! We left immediately and haven't spoken to my mother since, but the damage has been done.
