How strong is role of Texas Theocrats here?

Dear Abby
Mother-to-be feels unsupported by her in-laws and husband
DEAR ABBY: My husband and I are expecting our first child this year. I moved to the United States a few years ago to be with him. His family is mostly absent from our lives. I have tried to make an effort with my in-laws, but it’s always met with failure. They make excuses, so we have come to accept that we see them only during holidays. It has put a strain on our marriage. 09/22/2023 05:00 AM
