[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a pretty good relationship with the in-laws, but the reason I do more than I otherwise would is I want my kid to have a good relationship with them, if she wants it. [/quote]

+1.     My ILs love DS and have done 10x for him (and me to be honest) than I have given back in handling all the cards, flowers, meals out, etc. for special occasions.   I enjoy sending a beautiful flower arrangement and knowing how much my MIL will enjoy it too.   [b]I hope that DS marries someone who is not a sour DCUM mom.  [/b][/quote]

Why not hope DS becomes an adult who can handle family relationships and not expect someone else to do it for him?[/quote]

The easiest way to do this is model it in your own family. [/quote]

Yes.  Which is why your DH should be sending his OWN MOTHER flowers.  Bc your future DIL may not enjoy taking up the task, so if you haven't helped him learn how to send nice gifts to YOU, he will not learn it.  Good luck finding the non-sour DIL!  I'm sure you'll be a swell MIL....[/quote]
