She is making Halloween hell tonight for the kids enjoyment. She is miserable with her life and takes it out on everyone else. I really despise her and tried praying for her. I usually end up SAD and CRYING over her behavior ~ not comprehending how someone can be so cruel to kids. What can I do?

If it wasn't for the children you could ignore her like the plague. But for the sake of the children and if your still associating with her, try to tell her in a kind way that it is affecting the kids. Probably she needs medications, from a Psychiatrist ? You need to stay in close contact with the kids. Endure this nasty persons, behavior, and giving structure to the children. If the children are really young, then please don't abandon them. Does your ex-sister-in-law , have a Mother that could help you commit her,if she is this awfull ? Get someone who is close to her , to help you, try to settle this woman down. Does she use drugs ? If so she is in great danger of loosing the kids. That is when you can step in to gain control. If she is abusive, then either tell her that is it, or you will take her to Childrens services for needy children. If this woman is a Pot head, then that is why she is so nuts and has mood swings. Don't give up . Be there for your nieces or nephews. You are good person. Take care and may God bless you and yours, Always !!

You are NOT specific AT all with what exactly she is doing that is evil. If it is the fact that she should be hated for being Wiccan, then it is YOU that has the problem, not her. I am a pagan and I practice the occult but I WOULD NEVER AND HAVE NEVER hurt anyone innocent. I was also born with the second sense and I can read on the spot if people have a soul or are just evil. Judge less not be judged. You MUST be Catholic or some kind of radical Christian that YOU make it hell on everyone, not her.

I'm sorry, is she really a Witch, or are you just using that as disrespectful and inappropriate slang?
Either way, praying will not change her. She has to do it herself. I'm sorry, there is no easy way out of it for you or for her.
If it's any help, my sister does things that irritate me as well. It's not just that she's annoying, she hurts other people: my family and people that I care about. But I've had to learn (and I'm still learning it to be honest) that there is nothing I can do to control the situation. It is out of my hands, and what your sister does is out of your hands. I'm sorry, but unless there is anything illegal she is doing that you can turn her in for, it would do you best if you can learn to let it go. I know it's hard, it's hard for me too, but you can't let something you can't control effect your life so negatively. You'll be happier and better off if you can just let it go.

It sounds like you're allowing her to make YOUR life hell.
"I really despise her and tried praying for her" What kind of statement is that? Pray for yourself to find compassion for her. Y
If she is truly being abusive to children, then take steps to protect them, calling Child Protective Services if all else fails.
Beyond that, let go and move on. She will not change unless she wants to, no matter what you do or don't do. And making yourself miserable isn't going to help.

Praying, at best, changes the person who prays. At worst it changes nothing. If you can be a friend to the kids, great. If you can be a friend to the miserable beyotch and moderate her behavior, great. Otherwise I don't think you can do much other than leave it alone and focus elsewhere.

first of all, are you saying your ex sister in law is a witch as in the wiccan sense? if you are, then i hope you dont think she is evil just because she is a witch. not all wiccans/witches are evil, in fact most of them arent. they do not believe in satan.
in what way is she cruel to kids? is she beating them? is she playing mind games with them? or is she just down in the dumps? need more details to fully answer your question.

You are a hateful, interfering, ignorant, self-righteous busybody. I am glad it is you who is crying about all this, it is a self-inflicted wound and no-one else's responsibility. Shut up, keep your opinions to yourself, and find yourself something worthwhile to concentrate your energies on. The cruellest thing I can think of doing to children is to fill them so full of fear about invisible demons, the fires of hell and a nasty, vengeful god that they turn out like you. Your ex-sil is doing her children a favor.

Keep praying.
Prayer is not meant to change anyone except the pray-er.
It keeps our hearts soft towards those that are lost.
Intercessory prayer can bring protection over your s-i-l.

I do not believe she is a witch. Witches are caring people who believe there will be repayment in kind for their actions.
If prayer doesn't seem to be helping, you should suggest she get some psychological therapy.
Additional Details:
Well, now who is the offensive one? You have chosen denegrade the Wiccan by using their spiritual institution as a term of villification.

Have you seen the movie Saved!? Well you can always try a drive by conversion.
Anyway... Prayer is all you really have. Praying and being loving... Try both, and when all else fails pray some more.
Thats all you can do when lost.
