[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This worries me and somedays I pray my son is gay. I see all around it's all about what the DIL wants they have access to manipulate and influence relations.

It's so sad [/quote]

And here is exhibit #1 for why some women don't see their married sons much.

PP, the problem is not the DIL.  It's you.  [/quote]

You are in denial if you think it's not the DIL calling the shots on this in most marriages.  [/quote]

I call the shots about my in-laws coming over but not about dh seeing in-laws. He could see them every day if he liked![/quote]

NP. My DH and I decide TOGETHER who visits our home, when and for how long. But that being said, yes, he could see ILs a lot more if he wanted to, either on his own or with the kids. He doesn’t have tons of interest in seeing them. Maybe because they are quite stifling, overbearing, intrusive, nagging, etc. If they didn’t pry and try to exert so much control, he might enjoy their company. I think a lot of older adults are clueless about the fact that the more they try to guilt, whine, have everything be their way, the less their adult children will want to see them. [/quote]
