Episode Transcript
Ron: Meddling mother-in-law? What if you have a meddling ex-wife-in-law?
Announcer: For FamilyLife Blended®, here’s Ron Deal.
Ron: Nicole never saw it coming. While dating Tom she never anticipated how intrusive his ex-wife would be. At first, Sharon seemed focused on being a mother so naturally Nicole assumed that once she and Tom married, Sharon would stop her late-night texts and showing up at the front door unannounced. She was wrong. In fact, as soon as they got married, things got worse. Nicole had an unrealistic expectation and she minimized Sharon’s behavior.
Here’s the point: to marry a divorced person is to gain a mother-in-law and a father-in-law and an ex-spouse in law. Be sure you understand that when you say, “I do.” For FamilyLife Blended I’m Ron Deal.
