[quote=Anonymous]My DH turned into a limp biscuit when we were with his parents or siblings. 20 years of marriage, luckily we figured it out early. He resorts go being the baby in the family, doing what he's told and not standing up for me or the kids. At first it drove me crazy. But, we would talk about it after (not right away, but a few days later), and I would give examples like, "you know Larlo naps at 2:00, why would you agree to take him to ABC at 1:30," and later, "You know Larla is a vegetarian, why would you agree that we all go out to a steakhouse for dinner," etc. So many examples of him doing wht everyone else wanted and not what our family needed. Like I said, we figured it out pretty early, and now, 20 years later still talk bout visuts before they happen, and he does a much better job of standing up for our family's need, rather than giving in to what everyone else wants.[/quote]
