"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."

Hello, this is my first post here....I am at a loss with my DIL. I've never had to deal with drama like this.  My son lost his first wife to cancer give years ago...she was more like my daughter and that still hurts.  My son was able to adopt her 14y.o. son, which was great...but his new wife is full of drama, gets along with almost no one, including her own family....and decided to drag me into her drama.  In a nutshell my son's first wife made him a better person, this one does exactly the opposite...he can be difficult as well, but we were fairly close...I think she is jealous of first wife and knows how close we were. Not the "mothering" type either. Her two kids live with their father down south.  I guess I'm just not used to this childish-ness.  Hurts my heart.
