[quote=Anonymous]Another Asian here. Unfortunately, BTDT and it took a toll on my marriage and relationship with my parents. This is what I learned after the fact: DH (and his family) will never measure up no matter how I defend them. Your mom thinks she's watching out for you, but every marriage has its own quirks/dynamics, so it's best that you ignore all her criticisms/observations/comments and don't get influenced bc they will eventually seep through. I made the mistake of venting to DH about my parents. Don't drag him in. If you must have your mom with you, do your best to stay neutral and keep your eyes on the target date. If you can, try enrolling your DD earlier. Having DD cry it out at a new daycare/preschool is easier to deal with than your strained relationships with DH and mother. Best of luck![/quote]
