CaroMcK2 Registered: 08/19/07 Posts: 41 Loc: MA	From the 1st year of marriage my stepson had problems with his wife, cocaine, embezzling from co. she worked for, alcohol and on and on ~ They have 2 beatiful children girl is 21, boy is 18 ~ they want out of the house ~ love their mother but know she has problems ~ There is probably some pathology with the mother also ~ It is never ending and I am tired of "forgiving" her ~ yet want to keep some semblance of family ~ particularly around holidays ~ my husband is deceased and I feel close with my "step grand children" and want to help them ~ Their mother is jealous of everything we do or did for them ~ Anyone have a problem daughter-in-law???????? _________________________ http://artmusedog.blogspot.com/ Carol

And focus on the positive, your grand children. Nurture your relationship with them as that is important. There is nothing you can do about your daughter-in-law. You never know, she may change one day. I used to be referred to as a problem daughter in-law when I was married. I never did anything but my husband complained to her all the time about me and she believed him. Now we are best of friends and she knows me for who I really am, not my ex-husbands distorted version. Kate
