In-law problems?
-
janet_lee88:
those PIL are just being difficult with whatever they have control over... the things they do does not serve any purpose most of the time, it is more to satisfy their own ego... so that they can boast in front of their friends...Some mothers-in-law are really too much...with DIL, they want to boss them...yet, can't control own daughters.
My father's sister...fierce and bossy with DIL...yet with her own daughter, she cannot handle her. Like hubby's sister, she can go home in the wee hours of the morn...but with her sons, she sets curfew. -
Wonder why most of us here are women having in-law problems. What about the men? Don't they have issues with their in-laws too and voice out their grievances? Maybe men see things differently or simply just 'bo chap'? :scratchhead:

I guess men are not so nit-picking as we women are, that’s why they dun have much issues with in-laws.

Hmm, thanks for suggesting. But auto close door may not be a solution, as the air con is not on 24 hrs. So the door need to be open when the aircon is off.

change the door system, ask a quote from any contractor to put the mechanism to have the door auto close... if i were u, i would rather pay for a new door just once than to pay higher bills every mth never ending...SAHM Chew:
My in laws like to open their door wide and switch on the aircon. :faint:
Any solutions? After repeated closing the door for them, tell them.... And worst, when i tell them we are paying higher electricity bill every mth, mil can say, cos tariff increase mah. But i am refering to the chart that reflect the exact amt of electricity we use monthly. -

My DH has no problem with my dad, :rotflmao: i think cos they do not see each other often. Even they see each other, they do not talk more than 10 sentenses. If i can see my PIL once in a blue moon, and chat less than 10 sentenses, i will not have any issue too... :rotflmao: -
My hubby doesn’t have problems with my parents…they are easy-going with him…I see his parents once a in purple moon…and keep it SHORT.

Hi Mummies,
How come you all do visit your own parents often? My siblings’s family and mine will visit them alternate week.
Hubby with in laws are fine with each other too. -
You ladies here makes me feel so envious, lar... :oops: My MIL comes over to my place 3 to 5 times a day, everyday. The current arrangement is already the best so far - weekdays, she comes over as and when but I am at work (hence, can die cannot fall sick else will have to deal with MIL at home!). Weekends, the moment she comes or calls, I ask my children to go wake papa... so she doesn't call/come over too early like she used to! Imagine she used to come at 7:30am and my husband wakes up at 10:30am!! :yikes: :yikes: So halfway she might get bored or gan-cheong, she will goto my room, sit on my bed or next to it, then chit chat with my half asleep husband! :siao: :siao:
Let's not even get started on MIL's daughter's tactics!! -
i hope this thread will not pose us mummies here like :
zi eh sim pu chim pai (这个媳妇真坏) -
My mil is the queen of liars. 100 words she say, i can only listen to 10 words. The rest of her words, I have to take it with a pinch of salt.
