DD is 18 and a senior in high school. about a month ago she broke up with her BF. The boy is very nice, but DD thought the relationship was getting to serious (he was talking marriage) and she is not looking for marriage yet. She has her eyes set on college and in a way the boy's family was also strongly trying to influence her so she broke things off.
The boy's mother asked to meet me for lunch. I thought it was just to be friendly and say how she was sorry that things did not work out. Instead she said that my DH and I must have told her to break things off. I said that I really loved their son, but DD thought it was getting too serious, but she just did not want to buy that.
The family is Mormon and DD felt like they wanted her to convert to their religion, etc. DD is baptized Catholic and basically said she is not sure that she wants to change religions and that the parents, as well as their son, were planning out her life. I was shocked and had no idea this was going on. I praise DD for her ability to handle this on her own. She has broken off all contact with the boy (blocked calls and messages) but is nice to him when she sees him. Neither she nor I are worried that he or the family will do anything bad, but how do I get the mom to leave me alone. She has called me several times asking more and more questions and asked if I would let DD speak to her. I finally told her to leave DD alone and if she wanted to, DD would contact her if she wanted to. What more can I do to make this woman leave us alone?
