"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."


THANK YOU,THANK YOU~

when I seen her reply...I thought oh this could be good or reallll bad,I was scared,now I just have to see how the other ds gf responds,I think there may be some jealousy there,the girls all know the same ppl and it can get mean,so I was careful how I worded it,I wanted the point of lets all stop talking behind eachothers backs to get across,we are all guilty of it even me,when my dil was discussed I was right there to...then I decided we needed to stop,so a few months ago I started nipping it in the bud when I was around,I'm sure my ds gf called me 2 face:b My married son had a crush on my oldests son gf when they were in their senior yr,the guys have gotten over it ,when I was told about it over the summer she was there and smirked..I ignore it:) right now,all is right in my household,Ihope it continues to do so~Thank You for showing me a dil point of veiw~
