[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, what did you expect the wife's parents to say about it? If they told him they were uncomfortable with the dating, it is very likely that the widower would distance himself--and the grandchildren--from them. Their daughter is dead. They are going to support the new widower in everything because their ties to the grandchildren could be precarious if they don't. [/quote] Oh, and yes, this insight is based on my experience as a teen daughter whose mother died. Anecdotes from others ARE relevant to your situation. Consider them case studies, if you will; the mourning process is very well researched and oft-documented and explored in texts. You are very foolish to move into such a delicate situation and NOT attempt to understand what could go wrong and how to avoid it. Because, you know, you might not get/keep that "palatial" home of his if you don't take the right approach! Priorities![/quote]
