[quote=Anonymous]I would not feel good about that at all. I don't think anything good can come from either sets of parents getting involved in our marital decisions. On my parents' side, they wouldn't meddle but they'd likely view DH differently and I think it's my responsibility not to tarnish his image in their view. (I'm talking about having a healthy, normal marriage here - I'd have different advice if we were talking about abuse, infidelity, financial ruin, etc) I also want our families to be friends of the marriage and the family we've created together. I think it's asking too much of family to play that role + the one of confidante for one of the spouses. It's rare for people to be able to maintain such separate compartments in their mind when it's so personal. [/quote]
