[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I imagine most people have some in law "issues" due to little personality clashes or differences of doing things but only on a minor scale and can sometimes complain about it but not in an overly serious way, and this is what it's like IRL for most people. It's the same as complaining about your parents' foibles but still loving them dearly. But nothing like some of the deep seated in law hatred you see on here that does make me think the real problem isn't the in law but the poster in question. [/quote]

See I think the reverse. This board is anonymous so people feel free to say things they wouldn’t IRL.

I’ll be genuinely glad when my abusive ahole FIL finally dies..but I would never admit that to anyone IRL. I just say something milder like “he and DH clash” etc. People are judgy and often the issue is too complex to describe in a few minutes [/quote]

+1. Same with the marital issues over on the relationships board (cheating, sexless marriages, verbal abuse) people don’t talk about those things IRL either- I think they are more common than most would guess. Also some of the teenage issues on the teens board- many parents would not admit to many of those issues IRL..[/quote]
