      when i become a mil, or before that, i will be fair to both son-in-law and daughter-in-law...be cordial and adopt a friendly approach, don't whine, don't interfere especially when they quarrel.


      what if u find out ur DIL bullies ur son? making him doing all hseworks n running errands...possible not to interfere?

      Bully? Ya, hubby n I always talk about this. What if the DIL bullies our son(s)?

      Close 2 eyes lor. It is up to the man to stand up for his own rights. If he cant tolerate, he shld talk to the wife. Not his parents talk to his wife.

              In your case, I think the fault lies more with your DH than with your MIL & SIL. If fact, a lot of issues that seemingly reasonable women have with their ILs are a result of the husbands inability to manage his relationship with his family.

                curious though... what is meant by 'fair'?
                what's fair to me might not be fair to others...
                i am sure that my dh's parents think they have been 'fair' to me...
                but i really think it's not fair at all 🤷 :siam:

                  reminds me of the radio joke:

                  aunt A: my dd married well, the husband does everything, she does not hv to do anything.

                  aunt B: congrats. Is your son married?

                  aunt A (sobbing): aiyo, he suay lor. The wife does not know anything, he has to do everything.

                    Really can't resist answering this because I have 2 sons. If it happens to me in future, I will say he is definitely not 'mummy's son'. A married man still so useless, better not tell anyone he is my son. :slapshead:
