[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So for those who say they don’t interfere with husbands relationship with parents, does he allow them to be rude to you and you just don’t care that he doesn’t stand up for you? [/quote] I think when the DH comes from a family that tends to bully him, that DH grows up with a lot of anger - and would not know how to stand up for himself, because standing up for himself meant more "piling it on" - especially from a large family of bullies.[b] It makes for a dynamic that most of us do not have, or care to know about. [/b] So, you learn to avoid them, and they are genuinely perplexed as to why - which beats them piling it on to you. If that DH has kids, then the kids learn what the DH's family is about quite young (without anyone having said anything) - because they see the very stark differences in how mom's family acts together, compared to how dad's family acts together.
