Dear Annie: My son is getting married in July, and I’m dreading it. The woman he plans to marry is, in my view, a lying, conniving, lazy master manipulator
who has worn him down so much he barely seems to care about life anymore. He doesn’t see it, but my husband and I do. He thinks she hung the moon.
She’s a complete narcissist. She’s on her phone every waking minute, and doesn’t cook, clean or care for their daughter. My son works all day, then takes
care of their home and my granddaughter while she makes excuses. She believes putting on “Ms. Rachel” and sitting in the same room scrolling TikTok counts
as parenting. There is little to no interaction.
She hasn’t done anything to improve their situation; if anything, life seems harder because of how she conducts herself. She’s been “working on” getting
her driver’s license for four years. When things go wrong, it’s always someone else’s fault, and she casts herself as the hero in every story. Every
conversation somehow circles back to her.
I truly believe he’s making the biggest mistake of his life by marrying her. She won’t change because he, and everyone else, caters to her. What can we do?
-- Dreading the Wedding
Dear Dreading the Wedding: It’s painful to watch someone you love make choices you wouldn’t make yourself. Even so, this is your son’s life, and if he’s
set on marrying this woman, pressure won’t change that.
Share your concerns once, calmly and respectfully. Focus on what you’ve observed and how it affects him and your granddaughter, not on attacking her
character. Then step back. If you’re right and things unravel, you want him to feel safe coming to you, not defensive or embarrassed.
Sometimes the best way to help is to keep the door open and your judgment quiet. You may not be able to stop this wedding, but you can make sure your son and
granddaughter always have you in their corner.
