You are very welcome mate

I would hazard a guess that she is thinking more of her offspring than anything else. Least of all what is GOOD for her

Nor can you see her perspective mate...it's all good

I am really on the fence on whether or not I should sever all ties with my sister and her husband/my best man at my very own wedding, or if I should be a supportive brother even though I know she has done something that I find fundamentally immoral.
DON'T. Keep in touch with your sister and her hubby..... it will annoy the hell out of him. And your sister can use the support. I am thinking that this is going to be a short term situation.

As she should..... Don't get mad, Get LEGAL! This will also put pretentious "son-in-law" in his place.
Good Luck mate
