[quote=Anonymous]Things that would worry me - A SO with a very enmeshed family. Not close in a normal way, but like talk in the phone multiple times a day, walk in and out of each other’s houses, never do anything without family. The other would be if the SO’s family had a lot of drama - divorces, addiction, housing instability, siblings that didn’t launch, family members in jail or with financial issues. Neither is a deal breaker but both are going to significantly impact how they live their life as a couple, how they raise their kids, and their financial obligations to others. If they thought through that and it is what they want, I’ll support them. Basically I want my kids to know they are marrying into the whole family, not just 1 person. I am an only child and I talked to my husband before marriage about my financial and emotional obligations for eldercare for my parents because it was important to me that we were on the same page.
