[quote=Anonymous]OP, could it be your son who is keeping your DIL at arms length? Maybe he is the puppet master. If not, then I think with you it's all business because you are more like someone to smile at and exchange niceties than a type of mom who is helpful around the house and grandkids. Do you help your son and his wife with things? Offering to take their kids a few days, taking them out to nice dinners, etc? Do you offer to do dishes at their place? You need to try to break through and show DIL you want to be there for her and their marriage and needs. They are the children.[/quote]
