Is this too much to overcome with her?

She is 44 I am 52. She has 2 kids, with different dads, 21 yr old daughter and 7 yr old son. The 21 yr old is very immature, acts more like 15, she goes to college and has no desire to live out on her own.

The 7 yr old is very spoiled. His Dad lives in a different State visits 2 or 3 times a month, buys him everything he wants. The son has tantrums quite often, talks back to mom, she has little control of him.

Mom has told me of past abuse from bf's, one sexual and the other physical.

Her bio dad abandoned her as well as her adoptive dad before the age of 10.

She is very sweet, almost childlike.

 

I really like her but these issues i mentioned have me worried and holding back. Especially the issue with her son and his behavior. She feels guilty about the fact she got divorced so she always excuses his behavior.

 

I just don't know if i can go through raising a 7 yr old again. My kids are grown and on there own.

Also she does seem very clingy and jealous. She has a lot of anxiety as well. With her past abandonment issues the cause im sure.

 

Any of you had experience with anything like this?
