[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here: Look I really am not trying to attack her. She has done so much for my son. He's no longer a pot head because of her, she found him his current job when he was unhappy with his last, she took care of everything involved in buying their current house. He is in a very good place because of her and they both seem very happy together. I just don't get why she doesn't work. I'm also not the pp complaining about no grand kids, I already have grand kids through my other son. I don't understand why they don't want kids, but I'm not playing the I will never have grand kids card. I just don't want my son to support someone for the rest of his life.    [/quote]

You contradicted yourself. You claim you "just" don't get it as if you want to understand, then admit you "just" don't want your son to support someone for the rest of his life. First of all, beginning a statement with "just" doesn't make it less inappropriate or soften the meaning of what you're saying. You don't need to understand their choices. You also are way off base to think it matters what you want for your sons life. It's his life. It sounds like you have a decent enough relationship. I promise you will only become less influential if you pursue this issue. Also, you don't know their situation and should project onto the rest of their lives. Maybe she has a huge inheritance they are keeping from the nosy MIL, maybe she makes tons of money from an adult webcam show. Who knows? NOT YOUR BUSINESS. Between your defensiveness and trying to predict the future, it sounds like you have severe anxiety issues. We limit contact with my MIL for that reason. Be careful. [/quote]
