Mostly thanking for the faith points and saint role models to look towards for guidance and comfort in aftermath. I’ve been searching for such things.
My marriage of 33 years ended this past week because of what you described.
Starts small and I hope guidelines come out for what behaviors are red flags and need intervention asap, since no person or family is perfect and often it’s better to not dwell on what’s “wrong” with in-laws.
The damage eventually is catastrophic.
Next is finding a way to let grown kids know they may have misunderstandings about marriage and family, wounds that need healing, so this doesn’t become a generational problem.
You're welcome, this is why I write articles with topics that I feel affect many Catholics today. I was inspired to write this article as a follow-up to another article I wrote, based on various experiences that Catholic acquaintances have shared with me. I was surprised to realize how so many Catholics have lost loved ones who at one time were very faithful Catholics to in-laws who clearly do not have God at the center of their lives. I thankfully, have never experienced this myself, but because I know so many Catholics that have had this experience, I just felt the Holy Spirit moving within me to cover such a topic.
You're welcome. I just know so many Catholics who have shared their experiences with me, and I felt called to write about it to hopefully help other Catholics who also experience this great challenge.
Thanks for this.
