Primarily, my personal view is that you and your marriage should be her top priority now, as you are her family now.....
And her family back home is suppose to be the second priority this time................ideally, that's how it should be....
And for a moment, i felt she was a bit inconsiderate of your feelings and all your efforts, not to mention all the money it cost you for everything......
It's like she let everything down the drain when she decided to leave in just 2 weeks of being here, after such a long wait and much anticipation of her arrival....

But on the otherhand, i also understand how concerned she is of the welfare of her 2 younger sibblings in the hands of their father and stepmother....
I take it she must be carrying the burden of responsibility for her sibblings, with her mother gone and her father having a new family already...
I don't know how bad the situation is, but if she is bothered that much, then probably the situation of her sibblings back home is really bad.....
My only question is how bad is it? Is it bad enough for her to put your marriage on hold and leave it hanging????.....

I really feel for you mick and i feel for your wife too.....I can imagine how tough it must be for both of you and this is a hard situation to go through.....
May you both be able to work this situation out, so your marriage don't suffer much as well as her younger sibblings....
And i really hope you can both sort this out without sacrificing one over the other and vice versa......
