I don't think that W had such a terrible home environment when she was young. She gets along fine with her parents, about as good as any of us. However she seems to want to relive her youth (or at least what she wanted her youth to be) through her daughter/kids. D17 appreciates being her center of attention, however college does come soon and I suspect a move for D17 is inevitable.
I believe the next year or so will determine a lot. So far I see some positive moves, but will W make the jump? Time will tell.
