[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm trying to figure out why people become horrible, awful people when their children get married. Or maybe they were always horrible, awful people. (My in-laws just left after coming over for lunch and I think I'd rather get root canals rather than spend time with them). My DH is an only and aside from them never providing for his needs as a child, they didn't seem that horrible until after we got married. My only saving grace is that my DH feels the same way about them as I do. So we tolerate them every few months for a few hours. But it causes me mass anxiety...[/quote] Maybe they are so discontent with a shift in roles. My MIL can NOT let go of the idea that her children are not kids who need her for approval, comfort, guidance for everything anymore. She refuses to let the relationship mature.[/quote]
