All Hell has broken loose in my family

My daughter and husband have been separated for about 6 months.  Yesterday, she found out he has been having an affair with a friend of hers, for the past 5 months.  My daughter went ballistic.  She put things on facebook about this other woman, included this woman's phone number for people to call her and tell her how proud they are that she destroyed my daughter's home.  My daughter also invited this woman to meet her face to face and called her names and what my daughter planned to do to her physically.
She called this woman names that I will not repeat and now, my wife and her husband's folks are involved.  The Police have been notified and now my wife is meeting with them. etc. as I write this.
I hate this because they have 3 children, 14, 12 and 8.  The kids will not talk to their dad because of what he has done and I am sure my daughter has caused some of their feelings.  She is crazy, like I used to be when I was her age.  My daughter-in-law, who is a nurse is down there now, trying to calm her down and talk some sense to her.  My daughter hasn't slept since she found this out and if she is not careful, she is going to crash and burn.  She has already changed her name back to her maiden name on Facebook and things are a real mess.
They do not want to get me too heavily involved in this.  I have always liked my son-in-law but, if he does something physical to my daughter, then he will answer to me and I don't think he is ready for that.
For those of you who bother to read this, keep my family in your prayers.  This is such a tragic and sad mess.

I hope the police will calm her down and make her realize there are consequences to our actions...Im so sorry for all concerned Peewee...She must feel terribly betrayed...I hope she will get into therapy for her and her childrens\' sake..it\'s important for them to have both parents in their lives and if she puts them first she will be able to reign this in... You are all in my Prayers.. bless you..xo

I\'m so sorry to read this. I know how painful it is to find out your significant other has been betraying you, especially when children are involved. It really hurts and invites so many emotions. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts.

This is so sad for mainly the children but for all of you. Im sure your son in law doesnt want to mess with you. I bet that wouldnt be a pretty picture. I know when I found out about my now ex had been cheating on me for yrs and we had two small children...I wanted to get back at him to but I didnt because I knew it would hurt the kids. I am so sorry that you are going thru all of this turmoil in your family right now. Im sure this is hurting you so much. Know that I am praying for you and your whole family and for your daughter to calm down and do the right thing. I am and will be praying for you and your family. Please keep us updated on how things are going. You are loved so much and God will see you thru all of this.
God Bless you and much love.....Julie

sorry peewee i was late to get on here today. i am also so sorry that all this is still going on for you. i have the same problem with my son and his wife, they are separated and they both date other people. i have 4 grand babies living in this mess. Peewee, I just had to release it into the lord\'s hands and leave it there . I stand in prayer for your children and grand children as I know he is the only one who can fix this. Remember peewee , there is nothing absolutely nothing God can\'t do. Let go and let God my brother in christ. keep me updated or if you just need to vent, i am available. My prayers are with you all, love, connie
