[quote=Anonymous]Well, I'm not sure there's much you can do to be supportive emotionally. It doesn't sound like you like her very much. If your brother and/or his wife hasn't asked for your help, trying to be "helpful" could be seen as meddling. She could go back to studying and finishing a degree here. If she was in the medical field, something like a physician's assistant or nurse might appeal to her and it takes far less time and money than becoming a doctor. If you're local you could help watch the kids or help financially with tuition. If she's from another country, she could probably find a group/club with people of her country of origin. There are playgroups/cultural groups. Meetup.com would be a good resource. Of course, these are things that she'd have to do for herself. Not sure if language/lack of knowledge/possible depression are barriers. I hope she finds her niche.[/quote]
