My WW and I are divorcing and my 30 year daughter is living with a man that neither of us approve of. My WW has taken it on herself to live our daughter's life but our daughter lives 600 miles away. My WW wants me to take her side and encourage my daughter to get out of this relationship. The man is contributing to the household, has a job but also has an xw and child support. I tend to think that my 30 year old is old enough to make her own decisions. If she want my advice she would ask. My WW has taken to calling me names to get me to side with her. Any opinions?

I suggest telling your daughter that you respect her right to make her own decisions, but as someone that has had an A your WW would know better than most how destructive and doomed that type of relationship is. She might want to listen to her mother.
Next time WW calls you names for not being more vocal, ask her if this is really about her seeing DD make some of the same mistakes that she made.
