My mother-in-law married a guy my husband's age... She is in her 60s he in his 30s. That's a 30 year difference. I am all for finding love... but even I think more than 15 years is a bit extreme. What do you think?

There's 21 years between my husband and I. We're very happy and have been married for 16 years now. I'm younger than he is and I don't regret a thing. Hopefully your mother in law knows what she is doing and it really is the real deal. You can't do anything other than be there to support her either way ❤️
@SW-User It's weird though when they wanted my spouse and me to refer to him as dad... and they wanted my kids to call him grandpa. 😯

@Snowvixen Well he is a step grandpa. My husband has a daughter from his first marriage (I'm his third wife) who has children. My husband is now estranged from her and bitter because she has never recognised our marriage, our adopted children (she says because they are not blood) or allowed me to have anything to do with her kids. I don't see a problem with extra grandparents or uncles who will nurture and make them feel loved, our children have benefitted hugely from a large network of extended family and friends who love and nurture them. I hope you get this sorted, it gets so painful and messy if you're not careful X
