The W told me last night that during the middle of a heated discussion the OM asked his W why she couldn't handle this sych more like me. Wow. Of course, that went over like a lead ballon with OM's W. Now here's the question...should I contact/speak to the OM's W and turn her on to Michele's books and DB-ing? The OM's W is doing EXACTLY what she shouldn't...pleading, begging, etc. etc. Obviously, if their sych were better it could only help our sych. My concern is that this would be seen as an attempt on my part to do just that...improve our sych by improving theirs. My W is leaving for a three-week stay in the US this weekend, and I think the OM's W and kids are doing the same.
