[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.

I did have a long talk to both of them, wish them nothing but happiness.  I also told them that when they are ready to move back to VA, the house will be theirs.  I told my DIL to be that my wife has nothing against her personally and hope she will understand.  She sound sincere so I do not doubt her intention.  I think I can see the grand children when the time come, hopefully.  Btw, he is my only kid  :)

And yes, I did give them a wedding gift before they left for CA.  I deposited $50k in their bank account so that they can spend it on their honeymoon before starting the next chapter in their lives.

Now I just hope [b]my wife will come around soon...[/b][/quote]

She will. May not be soon but she will. You should like a decent guy and you and your wife have done a good job raising your son. Congrats to your son and his future wife! [/quote]

[b]Wife might, but DIL may not by then.[/b]  [/quote]

By the time his wife gets over her racist snit, the DIL and her son, who are now living on the other side of the country, might not be all that interested in having a relationship.  The wife might "forgive" her son, but her son's wife might not forgive her.  And even if she does, that relationship is going to be built on a history of hurt and resentment--the MIL will be walking on thin ice from day one, and not be given any benefit of the doubt if she oversteps boundaries or is critical of the DIL.

MIL better get over this sooner rather than later, AND be prepared to eat crow.  [/quote]
