Headed for the Altar on the Bus from Speed

Dear Dr. Sadie,

My son is engaged to a woman that we have known for a year. When we met, she presented as a lovely, young woman, full of promise and grace. When they announced their engagement 3 months ago, we were ecstatic to welcome her into our family. 

Since that time, she has gained 50 pounds, and she refuses to go out of the house. She quit her job and expects our son to support her fully. He does everything around the house. Last month, she moved them across the country, because she likes the climate better. Our son had to find a job (one that doesn't pay nearly as well and is not in an industry with any growth or opportunity for advancement). She also refuses to let him visit us or allow us to come visit them.

The wedding is in 3 months, and we are very scared. What should we do?

- Outraged and Disowned

You should find someone else for him to marry - someone that he doesn't know. He can use this to get to know other people. He should meet original people who are in the same state that you are in. That would be better for everyone.

That's all you should do - nothing else. You should have some watermelon. It's yummy. When you're done eating it, you can swim in the juice.
