[quote=Anonymous]What would you say, I wonder, about my parents, who met when they had no common language, citizenship (still don't), religion or culture? Their countries fought on opposite sides of WWII, and I had relatives on both sides who served. My father's parents welcomed my mother with open arms, despite not being able to speak to her directly (no common language), and my mother's parents most emphatically did not do the same for my father. You didn't marry your in-laws. You married your spouse. I married into a different culture again than either of the ones I grew up in, and I get along well with my MIL, but not my SILs. It doesn't matter. I did not marry them. Be courteous when you see them. All that is asked of you is common politeness. [/quote]
