Advice for a mom

My son is getting married in September. I'm trying to get excited for his big day, but I'm struggling mightily. His fiance is a narcissistic young woman who has rage episodes when she doesn't get her way. Despite her Jeckyl/Hyde personality, we worked hard to have a good relationship with her because she is important to our son.

Long story short, I was asked to help plan the wedding and I was honored to help out. Everything was going fine for a while then bam - out of left field the fiance didn't like some of my ideas and instead of merely saying no thank you she went on to trash my husband and I on social media. It gets worse from there as her sisters jumped into the fray. We went from being the helpful people to being scapegoats for a lot of family drama.

I'm dreading the wedding. More than that we are all sad that my son is making what looks to be the mistake of a lifetime. His siblings and friends have tried to talk to him but he's blinded by love.

I would appreciate any advice on how to get through their event without throwing up.

  • Just show up and be polite. If she makes a damn fool of herself, she'll look shitty, and if you behave yourself at his wedding, in a few years when they get divorced, you'll still be the good guy.

  • There isn't anything you can do.  Your son is an adult and he has made a choice for himself.

    I agree with juche.  Show up and be nice and try to be happy that your son is happy.
