In-law problems?

[quote="janet_lee88] What they preach is opposite of what they do. Lies and drama is hard to bear. Most sickening is acting angelic in front of sons, making daughter in laws to be the devils :x
Told hubby I will adopt hands off with my future daughter in law. Don’t preach nor get involved in their lives or quarrels lest I be seen as siding.[/quote]
Wah that’s terrible. To create problems and then add fuel to the fires. -

Now that we have to endure the nonsense...when we become MIL one day, we should not repeat and give the son & his wife problems.
I know it's a little off topic, but don't wait till child starts primary school to get him serious where school work is concerned. It sounds like P1 is like an extension of kindergarten but it isn't. P1 is start of building foundation. -

Agree, should start with the right values from young and get kids interested in learning. I also think it's important to help them learn some discipline and self control from young. If they're spoilt by grandparents, then they will just do whatever they want!

If in-laws spoil the kids, then have to sit down with hubby to explain the importance of building foundation and get him to tell his parents to stay out of the way. Of course there are some who will not want to listen…always saying ‘Aiyah, only P1. What’s the big deal?’ Kids are very smart, when they have 靠山, sure to take advantage.

Yeah even as babies, they know who they can bully! -

How to tell pils that parents are the ones whom decide their future?

Hopefully a miracle will appear soon

Rather hard for wives to get this point across to them...rather sensitive. Get the husbands to tell. Someone has to do the dirty job for the sake of children's future.How to tell pils that parents are the ones whom decide their future?

Why cant dil tell pils straight? Why mothers and daughters can say anything and the next day all angry words will be forgotten??

not all mum and daughter are like that. even if all is forgotten and forgiven, words still hurt.
because pils are not the dil's parents. no matter how much pils love the dil, even if their own son is the monster in the marriage, they will still be on his side especially when it comes to $$$, child custody etc. blood is thicker than water.
you are not fighting a losing war just a long long endles war till one party drops dead. (sorry for sounding so ..................).
dont lose heart.
