[quote=Anonymous]I was not what my socially conservative MIL had in mind, but she was desperate to get her son married, had the usual preferences of her culture for lighter skin, and allowed for personal growth. 20 years later, I am her favorite DIL: I stay home instead of having a career like my SILs, and she finds my manners and dress more feminine and pleasing. Ha. All this to say, you need to examine your motives. Some of them will be valid, some of them may not be. And allow for personal growth. Which is not to say that you shouldn't speak your mind. You need to let your child know if you see something that cannot be fixed and risks making your child unhappy. [/quote]
