My Sister is Beside Herself

When a child has a partner you don’t like the best course of action is to be nice and not in opposition. That just drives people closer with a common enemy. It’s best to be neutral and hope the relationship dies on its own.
 

We need some laws to protect young men from their own biology. We used to have more of them as well as a cultural structure, but those have been systematically stripped away. I'm sure he can't understand that he has been turned into a drone by this succubus.
I thought older women with younger men is some sort of revenge play for what men having been doing to women for years. How old are the kids? If they are not very young, he will have the kids out of the house by his mid 30’s. That’s not bad.

We also could use some laws to protect young women from their own biology. Why they pick some of the men they do is beyond me. Perhaps the ’bad boy’ allure is really true.
 
If the nephew is not stupid, his passion will soon subside and he will begin to realize that he is on the wrong way. But she's not gonna let him go.
A grown woman is always flattered to have a young fiance or husband by her side. It's like doping
 
When I was 24, I was seeing a gal who was 36 and had 2 teenage boys.
36 seemed really old at that time, but she was very pretty, fun and put together nicely.
I guess she'd be in her late 70s now.
It was a fun fling, but that's about it.
My cousin married a gal about 12 years older, and 40 years later they are still happy. so it can work.
A school friend of mine, a lady, took up a post in The US, she worked for an international company and, being single although in her mid-thirties, the company invited her to consider the move, she did. She worked in medical management. Whilst into her work she met a widower, they seemed poles apart, he was a surgeon and Jewish, she was a clerical manager and Roman Catholic. He was twenty years older than her, yet they just clicked. How do I know, we stayed with them at their home in Nashville most times that we went to the US. They were such soulmates that when the husband passed away about three years ago, his widow only lived on for about twelve months, so bereaved was she. How we miss them both.
 
It could be backlash.
When my youngest son was around 19 he hooked up with a woman that was my age about 39-40, and made me ill but I said nothing because the main thing they had in common was drugs, he supplied her, and she was pretty. My husband was having fits but my worries were more about him drugging and I knew that he would follow her like a puppy and I wanted to stay in touch with him. They were together for several years. She had kids, a daughter that is my son's age and a boy that was about 13-14.
He finally stopped drugs and they split up. He came back home, and she came over once, he told us to say he was not there so we did, she sat in her car in my yard till I finally went out and tried to tell her to leave but she had to smart off something about him and I slapped the h_ll out of her, then somehow she got a hold of my arm and bit me. We called the law and she got out of there pretty fast( she was spaced out on something and had a bottle of Vodka. Those were some crazy years.
Personally, I could not figure out how she could be with someone so young, and how he could be with someone his mom's age.
Years later when I got a divorce both of my son's friends hit on me every time I turned around but I was not interested. I liked men my age or older;)
Great to hear you have a solid head on your shoulders though.
 
15 years is a significant age gap - but Ive known couples with bigger that that.

Both parties are consenting adults - OP, I think your sister has to accept this relationship.

She can voice her concerns but to refuse to meet the lady is only going to drive her son away.

The relationship may or may not last - like all relationships - but the couple have to find this out for themselves.
