Dear Queenie,
My son married a woman who doesn’t like me and has him completely under her thumb. They have 2 children, but I only get to see them and my son when she is not at home or when my son brings the children to my house.
Queenie, is there anything I can do to make things better?—Another disgusted mother
Dear Mother,
Apparently your son takes the phrase “forsaking all others” in his marriage vows a little too seriously.
Tell your son how you feel and hope that he will have the gumption to stand up to his wife and try to improve matters, but if that does not make things better you will just have to accept them the way they are and find other ways to make a life of your own without much contact with your son and grandchildren.
