[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't get all the "suck it up" comments. The ILs' son married an American and lives in America--why should their culture and family's expectation of a DIL apply? I would turn it around, "In our culture, we don't cook every meal." etc.[/quote] You marry into a family, that's why.[/quote] That's how Indians think of it. Americans think we have formed a new family after marriage with our own traditions and ways of doing things. We don't have to follow the norms and desires of a 70 something year old from India because we married their son.[/quote]
