[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In the article it says very early on the son starts comparing his family to his fiancé's family.  My MIL did this shortly after I married DH.  She would compare her family with mine.  My MIL was mentally unstable or emotionally immature, whatever you want to call it, she caused a lot of drama and problems.

I think there were issues with the new DIL who didn't want to share with a new family.

I think this because at the end when the family wanted to know what was wrong, the couple wanted to rug sweep it and not talk about it.  Mentally unstable people do this, they don't talk about issues.  I mean you have this massive estrangement with someone but you won't or can't talk about it - the person who can't or won't talk is the problem, so in this case it's the son and DIL.  I honestly think they won't talk because they know they will get hit with the truth and they can't handle that.[/quote]

You’re assuming her framing is true. From what the DIL said it sounds like very little here is accurate. [/quote]

What? [/quote]
