My son is deployed. My DIL of course is worried but that doesn’t mean she doesn’t get sad, lonely and maybe a little scared too. I don’t call it whining.
I don't either. It's the ones who call a radio show to solicit sympathy for their own discomfort while the spouse is out fighting bad guys.

Sounds like she might be lucky to have you as her MIL. God’s blessing on all of you and may He bring your son home safely.

Well if its a once in a while thing yes, its not whining, but if its a constant it is. I would not expect anyone in that situation to never ever say anything especially around other women in the same boat. But if that’s the conversation most of the time, it is time to stop whining.
