[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here and I guess the consensus here is to stay out of it, which is what I'm going to try and do. Someone asked if they have ever asked for money and no they have not. I did offer to help out with their down payment on the house but they declined. I will be forever grateful to my daughter-in-law for getting my son back on track. I guess I just don't think her helping him figure things out should give her a free ride for the rest of her life.

Also, while she may have helped him figure out what direction to go in career wise, he still did the work to get where he is. Yes she found the posting to the job he currently has and helped him apply, but he was the one who showed up to the interview and got the job. I guess I can't help but think that maybe she planned all this from the beginning. She was only 19 when they met and she could see that he was intelligent and had potential. I really just cannot imagine why she does not want a career of her own.  [/quote]

You don't try to stay out of it, you just do. They have not involved you in this. How do people like you manage to get through so many years in the workplace without learning how to manage your own feelings? Were you always this emotionally unstable? The fact that you continue to make assertions about things you don't know (also, the job search is an important part of the "work" of getting a job) proves you really have a problem here. I bet this is much deeper than your son and DIL. It sounds like they are just the most recent targets of you emotional problems. You should consider getting help. [/quote]
