      Depends on the character of my future SIL or DIL also. If they are the forthcoming, warm and open type, I will definitely reciprocate. If they are more the arms length type then arms length relationship we shall have.

      If any person is warm and friendly, one would definitely reciprocate.
      However, if the person chooses to be unfriendly, then it is an arms length relationship...this is the way things work.

      umm yah... what I am saying is I have no pre-conceived notion what kind of DIL or SIL I will have. What kind of MIL I will be to that DIL/SIL depends very much on what kind of spouse my kids end up with. A relationship is 2 ways.

            But what if that 'type' doesn't suit them? They are the ones who are marrying the man. One of my cousins went out with this very nice guy, so nice that my aunt really liked him. When they broke up, my aunt was more heartbroken than my cousin! Frankly, I always felt that he was too nice to my aunt and my younger cousin, and my cousin (the one he was dating) probably got fed up in the end. We just tell our daughters that we hope they will find a man who will be their best friend and will make them happy (and hopefully being nice to us will make our daughters happy).

                        I will teach my daughter to open her eyes WIDE when finding husband material...preferably not the 'mummy's boy' or she will suffer.
