My son-in-law has done something several times which have hurt me deeply. I tried to forgive him, and never talked with him about the hurtful things he was doing, knowing that he would just lie and deny that these hurtful things he did ever happened. I thought I had forgiven him until one day under great stress, I got angry and said some awful things about him, not knowing that he was someplace close by, unknown to me, and heard it all. Now neither he or my daughter will probably ever want to talk to me again. (my daughter has a problem with co-dependency and will back him up on anything, even disregarding anything her family says about her husband). I apologized for my un-Christian behavior, but i feel I've lost my daughter forever. What can I do? She only looks at her husband's side of the story and believes him.(he physically hurt one of my other daughters once, and tried to have a relationship with another one...it hurt so much but my daughter who is married to him said she won't believe me or anyone unless we produce evidence. Thankfully my other two daughters managed to forgive and move on but I feel like I've made a mess of everything because of one day I said some terrible things when my family has always known me to be more Christian than that. I really feel judged by my daughter and son-in-law. i live in another continent, by the way, so it's not so easy for me to go to their house to try to restore damage. (this happened when visiting my family after four years. I still live with my two youngest daughters (I have 10 children, most are grown up)I do volunteer work, so as you see, i have a big reputation to live up to. Sincerely, Jan P.S. please pray for the relationship with my daughter to be restored, and if possible, with my son-in-law too. Dear Pastor Dan,

God bless you.I have a question. My son-in-law has done something several times which have hurt me deeply. I tried to forgive him, and never talked with him about the hurtful things he was doing, knowing that he would just lie and deny that these hurtful things he did ever happened. I thought I had forgiven him until one day under great stress, I got angry and said some awful things about him, not knowing that he was someplace close by, unknown to me, and heard it all. Now neither he or my daughter will probably ever want to talk to me again. (my daughter has a problem with co-dependency and will back him up on anything, even disregarding anything her family says about her husband). I apologized for my un-Christian behavior, but i feel I’ve lost my daughter forever. What can I do? She only looks at her husband’s side of the story and believes him.(he physically hurt one of my other daughters once, and tried to have a relationship with another one…it hurt so much but my daughter who is married to him said she won’t believe me or anyone unless we produce evidence. Thankfully my other two daughters managed to forgive and move on but I feel like I’ve made a mess of everything because of one day I said some terrible things when my family has always known me to be more Christian than that. I really feel judged by my daughter and son-in-law. i live in another continent, by the way, so it’s not so easy for me to go to their house to try to restore damage. (this happened when visiting my family after four years.

Sincerely, Jan

P.S. please pray for the relationship with my daughter to be restored, and if possible, with my son-in-law too.
