"Welcome to WiseWomenUnite.com -- When adult children marry and leave home, life can sometimes get more complex instead of simpler.  Being a mother-in-law or daughter-in-law can be tough.  How do we extend love and support to our mothers-in-law, adult children, daughters-in-law, sons-in-law, and grandchildren without interfering?  What do we do when there are communication problems?  How can we ask for help when we need it without being a burden?  And how do our family members feel about these issues?  We invite you to join our free forum, read some posts... and when you're ready...share your challenges and wisdom."

That's so good, peace!  I did the same thing with my son because he has not spoken to his father in three years.  His father was abusive, but he is still the only father he has and I don't want my son blaming himself someday for not speaking to him.  You are so right!  This way, they have done everything they can and there is no blame in that!


Peace

Absolutely, cocobar!  Sometimes it may be hard to find good things about people who hurt us but we gain so much wisdom and knowledge from our trials and errors.  I continually talk to my daughter about integrity and forgiveness and how important it is for her to break the cycle of dysfunction not only for her but for generations to come....her children, grandchildren and on and on.  I told her to learn from our mistakes and change it because she will surely make some of her own.
