[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe she's pregnant. Seriously, how often do 22 year old educated white women have a one week long engagement?

Sometimes they do. Sometimes they are also pregnant. That would explain why maybe he hadn't introduced her, etc, in the past. Also, we are all just taking him for his word that it has been a one year relationship.

T[b]he son deserves to have as many parents as possible at his wedding, no matter how quick the engagement. If your child invites you to a major milestone event, you show up. That is the American culture, which is the culture of at least 50% of the happy couple.[/b][/quote]

And also don't forget to get sh*t faced drunk, make a fool of yourself on the dance floor and hit on the bartender.  All part of American culture and you need to do this since it's 50% of the couple's culture.  :)

I do think a one week engagement is strange and can see how the Mom might feel blind sighted and hurt but it's coming out as angry and vengeful.

To OP- you've given them your blessings and that's all you can really do.  I get that you want to stay with your wife, you have the rest of your life to live with her and you can't just leave her over a one week engagement notice.  Your son and DIL to be know you love them and wish them well.  Keep the lines of communication open, time should heal all wounds.
