| DW has some EXCELLENT advice. I just wanted to comment on your description of a christian marriage - is that her own personal definition?

| She has been attending the local Mennonite church off and on for the past 6-9 months. She started covering her head last spring. I do not know if she has told them about him.[/quote] I assume he is claiming to be Mennonite? I think you should suggest she talk to her local pastor about this man, and ... |

Both of my children have sleeping problems.They have delayed sleep phase syndrome-which basically means that they sleep just fine but cannot go to sleep after midnight. They are night owls. Both of them do not attend school until second bloc... |

| I'll tell you what my instinct says, and it could be wwwaaayyyy off, but I think there is a lot more danger in this on-line man than in the Mennonite religion, so I would offer to help her find a nearby Mennonite community to connect to. I have a feeling they'll be as suspicious of this on-line rel... |

| She's an obsessive Christian and having a romance with a married man? What's wrong with this picture? I'm sorry to say, but this person is not stable. Whether the online guy is dangerous or manipulating her or not (and he obviously is), she's going to get into trouble anywhere she goes, because she... |

| Have you contacted him? If not, get on the phone or send him an email and be a bee up his a** until he gets the idea that it's not worth the amount of torture and aggrivation he will suffer with you as a Mother in Law. Seriously. He has convinced her that when they get married , she is moving to Ca... |
