In-law problems?

And given that mine are nowhere near as difficult as cwc's (or some others), I should be glad and thankful. But I am still a bit scared of this new attempt to stay together.

Chenonceau, dun get too affected by us, things are probably not as bad

Ha ha.....now I feel bad......I must have portrayed my MIL very badly
MIL is difficult cos' I am also difficult in some ways. So when both refused to step down, things turn uglier...... Guess if she were not so bias and willing to change some of the bad habits, she is actually quite OK, definitely not evil by heart, just stubborn and unable to listen to other people. Sometimes, things just get blown out of proportion when we start getting upset, stressed and of course, pent-up frustration

忍一时风平浪静，退一步海阔天空
Guess looking at my ailing & dying FIL, suddenly realised whatever anger/frustrations there were, it's no longer important.....better to forgive and forget.

Waaaah! Woman! You are really something to be able to respond with such graciousness! I think things for you are REALLY bad. It's no joke to look after dementia patients even if they're your own parents. Shitting and urinating all over the house is terrible :yikes: ... and some more got raw meat on fridge handle... I don't think you have portrayed anyone badly. Raw meat on fridge handle is raw meat on fridge handle... how does one portray that nicely? :?

:udawoman: :udawoman: :udawoman:

I am always amazed at the spunk, the strength and the endurance of the many Mommies here... What would the world be like without steel magnolias like you. Wanna know what a steel magnolia is? http://dixiesweetheart.tripod.com/Magnolia.html

[quote=\"kiddo\"]DH say only one mother but can have many choice for wifey :wrongmove: :heresmyfish:

He said that? :spank: Oh well... you also have many choice for hubby. :evil:

Chenonceau - You \" tar pau pu ping\" for me issit :hugs:

Dh say is MIL tel DH de when he is young, maybe MIL
afraid she will lose a son to the wifey so \" sian xia sow wei chiang\"

:boogie:[/quote]I think that I could bear with a lot of nonsense from my in-laws as long as my husband has my back. I would never make him choose between me and his Mom, but I won't tolerate that he chooses his Mom over me. If he ever said this to me, the marriage is over.

When hubby's youngest sister got married, her then husband got hell from the MIL during tea ceremony...she gave him hell in front of everyone. I asked then-bf-now-hubby how come his mother is so mean...what was she trying to prove ?

You mean the bridegroom got hell from his own mother? His mother did not approve of the marriage? She gave hell to the bride too? Some old women don't understand that when they embarrass their own children in public, they also smear their own reputation.

Hi, I am new to this thread… but… I think, if DH chooses his parent over his wife or his family, than he is in for an unhappy life, cos, what happens when his parents go? an if his parents don’t want to let him go, than they are being very selfish by not allowing him to have his own family and to nurture his family.


To love is to allow the other freedom, what is yours will always return, what is not yours will never stay.

She gave him hell in front of everyone...don't know what she was trying to do...that son-in-law has to be at her bidding ?
