My DS has always been very good natured and is now married to a very dissatisfied girl. We try our best to help with finance and babysitting and on the surface have a good relationship with her. Their son Age 7 is a joy but their daughter who is 5 is manipulating when she is around her mother. Sleeps in her bed every night as she "loves mummy so much " Her brother tells me he never gets mummy to read him a bedtime story as his sister insists she should always be with her. He is not allowed into her bed unless he has a bad dream .my son now sleeps in the study on a futon so that his daughter can be with her mother . They appear on the surface to be okay as a couple but I worry for their relationship and for my granddaughter becoming even more entitled as she gets older. She is a good wee girl when she comes to us for the day and doesn't get away with dissolving into ;(fake) tears every time she is denied anything. My DIL can't seem to see that she is enabling this behaviour and I fear for their son and more importantly for their marriage.
