When my son Dan remarried after losing his wife, I hoped his new wife, Laurel, would be kind to his daughter, Mary. Sadly, Laurel’s “politeness” was only for show. Behind closed doors, she belittled Mary’s clothes, schoolwork, and even her late mother. I stayed silent, fearing conflict, until Laurel crossed a line at her 40th birthday party. Mary had saved for weeks to buy her a handwoven shawl, but when Laurel opened it, she mocked the gift in front of everyone, calling it “ugly” and “cheap.”
