Sounds like the parents believe and react as if their son, his addiction and outcome can be controlled. That's the monkey on their backs, right now.

Unfortunately, you can't control them or their beliefs anymore than you can control your husband and his addiction.

Just for today, be kind to yourself and let go of attaching your own wellbeing to your husband and his misinformed family.
