      I can scold my parents & highlight my displeasure to them & my parents though may sometimes get angry about it, but they are reasonable & do admit that they are in the wrong & vice versa. My hubby has no problems speaking to my parents, though he don't argue with them like I do but he is comfortable around them. My dad & him are rather much peas in a pod sometimes... Lol maybe that's why I married him?


      For my in-laws, my hubby totally scared of his parents & dunno how to talk to them at all. If I were to voice out anything, no matter how tactfully said or even if they blantly wrong... They will say that I'm wrong & I'm being disrespectful, evil & trying to poison their son etc...

      IMO \"in-law problems\" are created due to differences in character, point of view & up-bringing. I've been brought up to be able to speak freely to my parents, whereas hubby was brought up in fear of his parents.
      Different upbringing, values and \"culture\". If Hubby's side have disagreements, they will end up having cold wars. Don't speak to each other for weeks and even months, SIL vs MIL, between SILs, SIL vs DH, even though SILs and MIL live in same house. If my side have disagreements, there's unhappiness, but cold wars are rare and if there's one, last only a few days. We forgive and forget, and agree to disagree. When I started noticing this (after marriage), I was so very thankful that I didn't live with ILs. Don't want my kids to grow up with such values.

        Hygiene or should I say, the lack of it pisses me off.

        Hubby told me his brother can wear underwear on both sides...can CHIEF please create one simile with a face showing 'puke' look? I was shocked when he told me that. The mother said it's ok. :faint:
        What matters more to her is WHO can give her MORE money.

        I am definitely happier not having to care...have reason not to care. Since I am insignificant, all the more better for me. Get to keep my sanity.
