"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."

Hi folks I'm hoping to receive some help.

I got married at 18 I was young and very nieve.  My husband (10 yrs older) dominated me and mentally abused me for almost 30yrs.

I have a son and a daughter ages 29 & 31.

I stayed with there father for their sake until they were old enough and were settled in careers.

I practically brought them up and in some respects I grew up with them.  I did everything for them and much more.
I left there father for my own well being and sanity...but since then they have disowned me and it's hard to live with. I now live very much on my own with my little dog.
I took very ill as a result...suffering minor TIAs resulting in epilepsy...and I am still struggelling day by day.

I found out 2 Christmas's ago my daughter got engaged ..... And was married on the 5 June.
I wasn't invited.  :'( my father and brother were there and the wider family circle...it's breaking my heart...
Please help!
