I make it a policy not to ask young married couples, “When are you going to have kids?” If they don’t have children, either they don’t want them or they’ve been unable to have them. In either case, the question will be hurtful. I handle singleness the same way.

@sarashain9884 3 месяца назад

When I go to the doctor I now get well-being questions; have you fallen since your last visit, do you feel safe in your home, etc. Perhaps it is because there is a general sense of concern for mental health post pandemic but it is something her MIL could discuss with her personal doctor during a visit especially since there is a history of attempt to self-harm and leave her husband. I cannot imagine how "unseen" she feels to go to those extremes. This DIL is a family treasure.

If the FIL has long been “argumentative/angry” type guy . . . Possible the physical abuse started in more recent later years?

We used to sing tha song and my grandmother would get SO offended. Made me think she felt guilty about something;there was NO logical reason for her to be offended. It's a known fact that kids like gross humor... We would tell her the song was just sick humor, but she would get all upset (which of course would make it even more funny-we didn't mean to laugh at her reaction but we couldn't help it. We would constantly reassure her it had NOTHING to do with how we felt about her.)

To the last caller: I really see some similarities to our situation! 1.I'm very uneasy with babysitters, but have let family and now church watch our kids. 2. My husband has had to work a lot, and I realized he wasn't working smart, just hard. So I had to start advocating for him to himself. And it's definitely tied to his mental health issues. He grew up in a bad tumultuous childhood and doesn't have a great outlook on life. I had a period of giving up on him and letting him overwork himself. But after a while I realized.....if I want a future with him something has to change! So I'm now figuring out how to advocate for him to himself, but also not try to "fix" him. Only he can fix his mental health and all his problems. I can focus on myself but, also make sure I'm not going along with his poor work decisions. (Similar conversation that I've had with myself and hubby, but thankfully our connection is still good.)

@lilybee_ Год назад

I agree! We raised our children 500 miles away from my family. My in-laws were local. They didn't take to being attentive grandparents. Our kids grew up with a lot of love but no extended family they're close to. We're incredibly blessed but our kids missed out. People, love your grandkids, nieces, nephews, outlaws and inlaws. Most of the time, your life will be richer for it. That said, you can't force people into relationships. All we can do is communicate that we want to be closer and out in the time.

Id ask husband to check with his "abused mom" if she is under drs care. Post suicide attempt, running away, she SHOULD still be under mental health care. IF the woman is struggling and husband has to restrain wife's impulsive behaviour, or self harm, that can also account for bruises. OR husband may be slipping control and escalating his abuse. So its a hard situation to make assumptions.

I wonder too if n when the siblings who live further away find out that they won't feel some sort of shame for not doing anything all these years n now the daughter in law shows them up however well intentioned n noble her actions may be. Alsol her relationship with her husband could be soured if sge intervenes without him on board. I agree it is serious n that bc it may have gone in so long and their in their 70's now whats the point n more than likely she will not be killed by him if there actually is abusive. Perhaps the kids didn't see it when rhey were young n or it was less frequent. While most men chill out more with age even abusers maybe he got more emboldened with the emoty nest or his overall unhappiness increased n ge started lashing out at her. Is their a hidden drug or alcohol issue. Also if they wind up divorcing do these folks have ability to pay for seoerate housing or are kids willing to let them stay with them.

As a child, when I found out Santa was not real, it destroyed me. I felt absolutely betrayed, like I was treated as a fool. I will not agree to pretend to my grandson Santa is real. However, I will agree and celebrate the fairy tale. I will read the Christmas story I adore, and hope it becomes a story he enjoys reading to his children and grandchildren. I will sing all the Christmas songs, including ones about Santa, with great joy and exuberance. There is Christmas joy in the fairy tale of Santa, and I enjoy it very much, but I will not be pushed or guilted into holding up, maintaining the genuine lie about Santa. I do tell my grandson, 5 years old, that other kids believe Santa is real, and he should not argue with them, or even tell them Santa isn't real, others can keep up the lie if they want to. I will give gifts unreasonably to my grandson, I have a right to, within my financial ability, of course.

I know what you mean, I told my son he was inspired by a real guy who gave gifts out a long time ago but it’s mostly made up but we’re going to play pretend and have fun and he was up for that. I didn’t want to lie to him either.

My parents always told us that Santa brought the one big gift, but that they had to give him money to make the gift. Their idea was to contain our "ask" for gift. So I loved the thrill of getting a stocking filled, and that one Santa gift. But the other gifts were from mom and dad and included new socks and underwear. So it was fun, not overhyped, and no parent said he is Real, they'd answer questions with shrugs etc. Jesus was the main reason for the season, so when Santa faded for me, it was fine.
