My son's marriage

My daughter in law has two children my son is

in prison and they will have their first congugal

visit next week. She has come to me for help

because he believes she has cheated. He is saying

that if her personal part is loosened that he will know

she has cheated. What information can we send him

to convince him that is an old myth that some men

hold true?

Positive Reinforcement

I am not sure where to go here but I would suggest having a talk with your daughter in law and asking her why he thinks this. If you feel sure she is telling the truth I would tell her to give him the most positive reinforcement and also search the web for some information on old myths so he can see it in black and white.

Some times when men are incarcerated they become very insecure. They are lonely, frustrated and want to lash out there frustrations in this case it sounds like he is lashing his wife. I would also point out to his wife that this behaviour of his is not healthy so maybe she can get him some help while he is in there.

reinforcement

thank you so much for your input nice work.

I agree give him reinforcement and that it isnty

healthy for him to lash out at her. You hit it on

the head with your insight that he is insecure.

thanks so much.
