Support Group Encourages Daughters-in-law Worldwide

“It was heartwarming to discover that other wives are going through the same problems and looking for positive solutions. I love this group because Jenna is extremely diplomatic; she supports women who are having in-law problems and encourages healthy communication between spouses.” --Renee Osman, daughter-in-law in the United Kingdom.

Manhattan, NY, April 20, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Jenna D. Barry, author of “A Wife’s Guide to In-laws: How to Gain Your Husband’s Loyalty Without Killing His Parents,” is helping daughters-in-law across the globe by leading a positive, encouraging support group. “We get several new members each month,” says Barry. “Some have been married several years and are on the brink of divorce because of tension caused by difficult in-laws. Others are brides-to-be looking for advice on how to handle future mother-in-law problems.”

“It was uplifting to find this group of women experiencing similar emotional trauma from an elder female - a wolf in sheep’s clothing- and not feel so alone in the healing process.”
--Heather, daughter-in-law in the USA

“If one of us has a problem with our in-laws, we help each other think of how to handle it in a way that brings us closer to our husbands,” Barry explains. “We validate each other’s feelings and provide a safe place where we can vent our frustrations. We discuss how to channel our anger into making positive changes in our lives and in our marriages.”

“Although reading my book is not a requirement for joining the group, I strongly recommend it so all of us are equipped to strengthen our own marriages and offer sound advice to other group members,” says author Jenna D. Barry.

“Jenna’s work has been a beacon of hope for those who struggle with one of the most difficult relationships -- the in-laws. Her unique insight gives readers practical, easy-to-follow tips and provides insight on how to deal with ‘the other half’ of one’s marriage. Jenna’s work is a must read for those who struggle with mitigating the third wheel and should be the go to source for everything in-laws.”
--Hitched, a magazine that entertains, educates and inspires marriages

“I started a support group because I didn’t want daughters-in-law to struggle alone like I did,” says Barry, who has been married 14 years. “I learned how to gain my husband’s loyalty, and I want to help other wives do the same. Wives have renewed hope in their marriage when they learn it is possible for a husband to transform from a parent pleaser into a loyal husband.”

“Jenna D. Barry is making a difference,” says Renee Osman, who has her own website at www.contentedinlaws.blogspot.com.
